Whether it’s being gifted, complementing your everyday wardrobe or standing out as a key element of your outfit for a celebration, jewelry plays a special role during the holiday season and beyond. For longtime local Boulder business Walters & Hogsett Jewelers, this is inclusive of all of their artistic jewelry pieces and collections.
“‘Live in it’ is a phrase that we often use to emphasize the idea of fully embracing and enjoying the experience of wearing jewelry,” says Emily Lantaff, co-owner of Walters & Hogsett. “Whether you’re hiking the Mount Sanitas trails, running errands or going out to a delicious dinner, the idea is to make your jewelry part of your daily life, adventures and activities.”
In this spirit, Emily notes just how meaningful jewelry can be during the holiday season in particular.
“The holidays are about warmth, laughter and a little extra sparkle,” says Emily. “The right pieces of jewelry bring people together, weave memories and pay tribute to family and personal milestones. It presents an opportunity to shine brightly and offers a timeless gift which will be remembered for years to come.”
Founded in 1980, and in its second generation of family ownership, Walters & Hogsett has been part of the Boulder community for over 40 years—combining the essence of casual luxury with the warmth of family in the local jewelry purchasing experience. The business celebrates the art of jewelry with a diverse selection of pieces from lauded designers that can be dressed up or down to illuminate your wardrobe for any occasion. For Boulderites looking to gift jewelry, or perhaps treat themselves this holiday season, it is an ideal location for gift-giving advice and discovering the pieces that will become part of your jewelry story.
With the holiday season upon us, we asked the experts at Walters & Hogsett to curate a few examples of how you can integrate jewelry into your various activities, gatherings and looks, both this holiday season and beyond. With complementary hairstyles to further enhance a lively “ear party,” a glamorous “neck mess,” a classic feel or your style statement of choice, these distinct looks can help inspire your relationship with your jewelry.
