Each season in my jewelry shop, shopjuliamarie.com, I create a core collection of all the pieces I’m wearing in constant rotation.
The current Summer Collection is a combination of our #1 top sellers and pieces you guys may not shop as often but I can’t stop wearing with some new arrivals sprinkled in.
here is the Summer Collection …
** each photo in this post is shoppable, just click the image and you’ll be taken to the product page **
These are a current favorite. I have quite a few new piercings so these are great to put in and not worry about having to take them out “so they don’t irritate the new piercing”. Sometimes I wear them for weeks at a time without taking them out. They are 14kt Solid Gold so they’re fine to wear in the shower and the pool, also, I do sleep in mine.
While these are a part of the Summer Collection, they’re great for sweater weather. When your chunky sweaters are covering your neck they’re great to add a statement to your lobe.
Long story short, they’re great year around not just the Summer. I’ve had mine 4+ years and still wear them all the time.
Like all of our jewelry these are 18kt gold over sterling silver so they won’t turn colors.
Easily, hands down my most worn piece from my shop. I LOVE this necklace! That’s it! That’s all! I LOVE it!! It’s such a great statement piece.
I wear mine on a 16″ chain which is currently sold out however, the 18″ chain doesn’t appear much longer due to the necklace not “hanging” but more so sitting on the neckline.
I do plan on ordering an 18″ for myself so you can see it on me.
My favorite necklace comes in 18kt Gold Dipped or Sterling Silver.
This is a newer piece to my shop. Currently, I wear this ALL the time. I wear mine on a 14″ chain for a choker look and love layering it with chunkier necklaces.
Like all of our pieces this is made in 18kt Gold dipped.
I 100% have better photos of this ring but here we are. This is my FAVORITE ring!! Favorite! I love her!
I’ve had mine 1 year and it is my most worn ring. I do wear it when I wash my hands and have not seen any wear on it from the water.
While it is NOT recommended to ever wear your jewelry in water even solid gold pieces I thought I’d let you know how it holds up with improper care lol.
I love this piece! It’s so fun, girly and youthful. At first I thought it was childish then I got mine, put it on and fell in love with it.
I even added a second heart ring with the “b” initial and have them stacked.
Just like all of our other pieces this ring is 18kt gold dipped over sterling silver so no turning colors. I wear mine frequently and wash my hands wearing them and they still look new. … I’ve had mine a year +
One of our most popular pieces over the years is the Carrie Name Necklace. I have 3 or 4 different combinations (sizes, chain lengths and metals) and am waiting on another one.
I ordered a new one because I don’t have one with the updated chain. The new chain is the same chain on the Script Name Necklace and it has a 2″ extender. Carrie is timeless and a great piece for gifting.
She’s available in 18kt Gold dipped, 18kt Rose Gold dipped, Sterling Silver and 14kt Solid Gold. I have the Solid Gold as well and it is insanely beautiful! Highly recommend! I
n the images above I’m wearing the 18kt Gold dipped Carrie on a 14″ Chain.
Add a little Summer fun with the Name Anklet! This is only available in the warmer months and will be discontinued end of Summer so if you want it now is the time to get it!
It comes in two sizes 7.5″ or 8.5″ both come with a 2″ extender. I have had mine 3+ years.
Now is a better time than ever to emphasize the impact accessories have on your look. In 2020, it’s all zoom calls and face time whether for business or to talk to loved ones. We’re also spending more time than ever on social media. We’re taking up creating tik-toks and IG reels to pass the time and entertain ourselves.
For myself, talking to the camera on Instagram stories is a part of my job and imho I’ve mastered looking put together and glam from the chest up.
The Key: ACCESSORIZE! I’ve found a cute oversized tee or sweatshirt with layered necklaces, rings and bracelets will sass your look all the way up!
All of my custom name and initial jewelry pieces are from my shop, shopjuliamarie.com and for most of my other pieces Amazon has been my best friend.
In addition to jewelry I’m never without sunglasses. I’m so big on sunglasses because I have very sensitive eyes so I’m never without a pair. Even during overcast the sun bothers my eyes, I squint and get headaches easily. I have sunglasses in my purse, car console, the entry table in my home, on the shelves of my sunglass wall in my closet. I mean I don’t have that many pairs, maybe 10-20. Regardless, they’re my top must have accessory items.
I’ve rounded up some of my current favorite accessory looks you’ve 100% seen on my Instagram stories below.
This is one of the newest (and most popular) pieces in my shop. It gives full 90’s vibes, it’s edgy and cool. This necklace sold out in 3 weeks when it was first debuted so def jump on it if you want to add it to your collection.
I bought this rope chain (Hello, 90’s style, again!) specifically to frame my chunky name necklace. This is an 18″ chain, I absolutely could have gotten a 20″ chain but do like how close it is to the Chunky Name Necklace. It makes it a little more statement-y.
These are the newest addition to my collection and tbh this is the 3rd pair of this style from Quay I bought and by far my most favorite. I bought the solid black and this color to compare and I took the solid back right back to the store when my package arrived. In addition to the colorway I’m wearing here I also have the gold frames and lenses … as much as I love gold this black pair is IT for me right now!
This fun girly, low key childish, heart ring is the latest addition to my shop, shopjuliamarie.com It’s available in sizes 4.5-11 but I thought it would be cute as a pinky ring so that’s what I did.
This is a great piece to wear layered and stacked for a fun, trendy look. It’s also a great gift idea for younger ladies in your life, elementary to high school aged.
The Heart Ring is available in 18kt Gold dipped or Sterling Silver so you don’t have to worry about fading or it changing colors.
With masks being the unexpected trend and necessity of 2020 I had to trade in my large hoops for a smaller style that is more mask friendly. I found this pair on Amazon in the $15 range. They’re light weight and do the job. Chic and trendy with the right amount of gold umph.
I would be lying if this wasn’t a 100% impulse quarantine purchase. Emily Ann Gemma posted a IG and a few stories wearing this and I said, “you need that” and purchased it right away. Normally I would never spend $70 on a trendy sweatshirt but it’s Quarantine and I was emo shopping and sweatshirts are all I’ll be wearing the next 6 months.
Imho, it really elevates your chest up game aka stories, Tik-Toks, facetimes etc. It’s also comfortable and easy. BTW, I did size up.
I regret nothing and if you got it ($70), I’d buy it! (again)
This necklace has been on my wishlist for a while. I’m talking a year or so. It’s another piece from my shop.
What I love most about this piece is the quality, it is absolutely stunning! The twist chain gives it a subtle glisten.
I bought mine on a 16″ chain, 14kt solid gold. White Gold is also available.
It took me so long to buy it because it is a little more pricey, as expected, and I have 3 of the plated Carrie Name Necklaces in different sizes and chain lengths. In addition, I have at least one of every style I’ve ever carried in my shop, that’s A LOT of name necklaces. Another Carrie Name Necklace was never a priority however, I finally splurged as I’ve had and worn this style 6+ years so I know it’s worth investing in.
YSL dupes, Amazon! I thought this were a “No, thanks!” when they first came out. Then they began to wear on me so I figured $10 was an okay amount spend to see if I like them. Long story short, they became my car sunglasses for about a year and every time I went through Starbucks drive through employees would meet me at the window to compliment them.
HEART EARRINGS
BIG sorry! This are from last years Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. They sold out this first day and it took my 4 days to track them down. They eventually restocked a few months later but they’ve been discontinued as far as I know. They are Baublebar if you want to try to find them.
Quarantine shopping made me finally pull the plug and place my first Abercrombie order. They have a really strong Influencer program and all the girls I see talking about them always recommend the basics so I took it too far and order a few.
Y’all! It’s not just hype, they’re bodysuits really are amazing! I ended up buying 4 different styles and got black and white in all 4 styles for a total of 8. Do I need 8? Sure, why not! I wear them all.
I bought my TTS in all of them. I do prefer the seamless styles. They’re a little more but the quality is worth it.
SHORTS
Another, sorry! I bought this the first week of quarantine back in March, a ton of you bought them but a lot of you slept on them. Unfortunately, they are sold out now. They’re Madewell but I’m not sure of the style name or length.
Another Amazon find! I actually bought this style in a brown ombre color from Nordstrom but when I went to share with you guys they had sold out so I went to Amazon to see if Jeff had a similar pair and found these.
It took me a while to purchase the black myself but I’m so glad I did, I love this pair. Definitely recommend!

DRESS
Zara. Found it in store. Haven’t seen it online. It is new though. I bought my TTS!
That’s all I know, please don’t stalk me on Instagram with comments and DM’s I swear that is all the information I have and repeatedly asking isn’t going to make me magically have more info.
This fun girly, low key childish, heart ring is the latest addition to my shop, shopjuliamarie.com It’s available in sizes 4.5-11 but I thought it would be cute as a pinky ring so that’s what I did.

Hands down to most popular item and #1 seller from my shop this year is the Script Name Necklace. It’s available in 18kt gold or 18kt rose gold dipped over sterling silver.
As a hoop girl no collection is complete without a large pair of thin hoop earrings. I found this pair in store at Nordstrom Rack but linked a similar pair from Amazon
My locket necklace is a DIY I made with my Locket from my Alma bb and a $10 handbag chain I bought from Amazon. Amazon has been my best friend in quarantine what can I say?
I linked a product listing from ETSY, a few bloggers I know have the version from the listing so it’s legit from my understanding.

NAME RING
The newest addition to my shop is this Name Ring. It’s fun and casual, I love it paired with the heart ring and thin basic bands. It just says 1992 in 2020 and I’m here for it!
I will not lie I bought this with the intention of it to fit my middle finger but I underestimated just how chunky my fingers are so … here we are … on the ring finger.
My love bracelets and nail bangles are also from Amazon, they typically sell out within a day or two and don’t return for months.
I check at least twice a week for new listings and share on both my IG stories and LTKit as soon as I find them. Follow me on both of those channels if you want restock alerts.
A few months ago after reviewing my future goals along with time constraints (at the time) I thought it was best to close my shop, Julia Marie, that carries custom Name, Monogram and Initial jewelry. Prior to making this decision I did want to do a store closing “Black Friday” sale the month of November but I didn’t have the time or energy to keep SJM open for 3 more months. In addition, I didn’t know if I’d have the time either but life has a way of working itself out and I now have the room in my schedule. Back in August I had a “private” Store Closing Sale that I only shared on my personal Instagram stories and the amount of support was insane so I had to bring it back for November and do it properly before we say Goodbye to what SJM has been the past 6 years.
ShopJuliaMarie.com will still have a home on the internet after November 30th but instead of custom jewelry we will have digital products that are related to the information and teachings I share here on my site, Julia Marie B. While we transition into digital products I will have a few of my favorite jewelry pieces available each month, for one month only. For instance, the jewelry pieces that will be available in December are not currently available. These pieces will only be available in the month of December. January 1st they will be gone and we will move on to a new selection in January. By implementing this structure it keeps it more exciting (at least for me lol) and makes it more maintainable for me.
So for our very last HOORAYYYY!!!Shop Julia Marie is having a 40% OFFSALE all of November. No codes necesarry! You guys can shop for yourselves, get your Christmas gifts (Christmas delivery is guaranteed)
Below, I’m sharing all of my favorite pieces that I own and wear daily with product details. Everything is linked for easy shopping!
The Carrie Name Hoops are one of my personal current favorites. You may know I LOVEEE a hoop earring so these spoke right to my soul. During the last sale I was shocked to see that these were a BIG seller!
During the Winter months we wear a lot of sweaters, turtlenecks and scarves. This typically covers the neck making room for our earrings to be the star accessory piece and the Carrie Name Hoops will have you shining bright like a diamond. I said what I said.
If you follow me on Instagram and watch my stories you know the Initial Necklace is currently heavy in rotation. What I love most about it is the ability to customize it. You can get up to 3 characters including a heart or & symbol making it perfect for a “sweetheart” necklace, for your children’s initials or even your parents initials. I choose my first initial with the heart character. It’s fun, cute, and girly so I’m into it!
I got my Initial Necklace on a 14″ Chain so it sits at the clavicle. It’s available in sterling silver or 18kt gold dipped.
The 3D Bar Necklace was layered a lot above with the Initial Necklace as well if you want to double back for styling inspo. This is my favorite necklace for layering, it comes in Sterling Silver, 18kt Gold Dipped or 18kt Rose Gold Dipped. My necklace is on a 20″ chain.
All 4 sides are engravable or you can get nothing engraved at all.
Devon brings allllll the 90’s vibes, this is one of my current favorites and a piece I wear daily. Get your first or last inital or no initial at all. It’s 18kt Gold dipped over Sterling Silver so it won’t change colors from washing your hands or sweating.
And another one …. perfect for weather the Name Ear Crawlers can be customized with 2 different names or you can choose 1 name on both earrings. I got my Name Ear Crawlers with 2 names, “Julia” and “Marie” because ya know, that’s my name.
One of the all time Best Sellers is the Lauren Monogram. It’s an amazing statement piece and makes the perfect gift. I’ve had my Lauren Monogram more than 4 years and have worn it more times that I can count ( or remember ). I’m wearing my Lauren Monogram on a 16″ Chain.
The Name Anklet is major key in the Summer months and a cute addition if you show of your ankle with crop pants, sneakers or loafers in the colder months. The Name Anklet comes in 2 sizes and fits my full sized cankles.
With my fun pieces like this anklet and the Carrie Name Hoops at the top of the post I have fun with it by getting my Nickname, Jules!
The Name Anklet is available in both Gold and Sterling Silver.
Another favorite during sweater season is the Block Monogram Earrings. I didn’t want a traditional monogram so I got my initials, “JM” instead to make them more modern. These are Sterling Silver so the earrings won’t fade or change colors.
The Tiny Name Necklace is a delicate option, very dainty and feminine perfect as a gift or for yourself. This necklace is only available in Gold.
All pieces on Julia Marie are Sterling Silver or 18kt Gold dipped over Sterling Silver so it won’t change colors. Because our pieces are Sterling Silver they will tarnish with time or climate this easily cleaned with jewelry cleaner and your jewelry will be good as new!
I want to thank everyone for all of your support over the years it means more to me than you know! I’m thankful, grateful and appreciative and can’t want to share the next chapter with you!!
I’m wearing the 2″ Lauren Monogram on a 16″ Chain in Gold from my shop! #SupportYaGirl I’ve had this monogram 4 years so while it is 18kt gold dipped with proper care it will hold up nice.
My signature earring is hands down a hoop, I pretty much only own hoops and they’ve been my go-to 10+ years now. Hoops in general not this specific pair. Currently, tube hoops in a brushed gold are my fave and this pair is in constant rotation!
This is my everyday watch. After staring at a friends wrist adorned with this watch for a month or two I decided I needed it! I absolutely love a big watch, the bigger the face the better. I like the face of a watch to be the size of the front of my wrist.
If you didn’t know Amazon has ALL the dupes so now I’m building my “Cartier” bracelet collection lol Check out the pieces I just added to the team as well HERE and HERE. & Don’t forget your Love Ring HERE!
I’m growing my Cartier Love Collection (dupes!) so I had to get a ring! This style was the thickest band I found but there are thinner versions. Check that out HERE. I have the Love Bracelet OTW to complete my look.
Recently, I’m talking maybe 1-2 years ago I FINALLY started playing with lip color. Because I’m not sure what I like yet instead of blowing money on a good lipstick I’ve been experimenting with drug store brands while I find my way. I have found I like nudes the best so when my fave, Emily Ann Gemma recommended Maybelline Baddest Beige I ran to the store to try it out. Immediately, I LOVED it however, the formula lasts maybe 5 minutes max. The staying power is terrible but I finally found a shade I was obsessed with and ready to invest in so the $5 spent was 100% worth it.
I took my $5 lipstick to Nordstrom with a swatch on my hand and swatched the Charlotte Tilbury colors to compare. SN: Charlotte Tilbury is another Emily Ann Gemma brand recommedation lol. With hard work and determination I scored and found an exact match!
Now this shade is a signature shade for me. It started about 8 years ago when I found Essie “Mint Candy Apple” and I wore it for about 4 years straight. After taking a complete hiatus from this shade the past few years I thought it was time to bring it back! My salon didn’t have the Essie shade so I found a similar shade from OPI “Suzi Without A Paddle”.
