This week I decided I wanted to share a little about how my stylist Gabriela Tena and I accessorize my looks! A lot of you always ask what brands I’m wearing so I thought I’d let you guys hear it from the expert herself. 🙂 Gab and I have styled so many looks together and I love how she tries to focus on giving exposure to young and upcoming designers! This is the perfect time to explore new brands now that we’re all looking for ways to support small businesses. We hope you love these pieces as much as we do!

Hi Everyone, this is Gabriela—Nastia’s wardrobe stylist! I’m going to be talking about one of our favorite accessories: gold necklaces.
I’ve been layering necklaces on almost all the looks Nastia and I have created together. They’re an accessory piece that instantly elevates and pulls any outfit together. One of our favorite ways to wear necklaces is layering 3–4 at one time. This allows us to select a few that work well together and change them up depending on what kind of neckline Nastia’s wearing.
Necklaces can also be an opportunity to express your identity through a monogram, locket or charm that tells a story or a memory about your life.
When pulling for my clients I always try to find up and coming designers that not a lot of people know about yet. I especially love collaborating with Nastia, because she is always more than willing to support and rock a piece that she finds beautiful, no matter how popular the designer is.
Below are some of my favorite jewelry brands that I’ve recently pulled for Nastia. They are all small, female owned brands and have an incredible selection of gold necklaces perfect for layering. Keep scrolling for some of our favorite pieces:
Every piece of Noor Noir jewelry is designed and handmade by the owner Noor Molvi in Los Ángeles.
Founded by Christine Lalaiev and designed in LA. You can find your Astrology sign or a “Mama” necklace for Mother’s Day here!
NOA jewelry line was started by a nurse and gives back to cancer patients for every gold piece that is sold. She customizes lengths and initials as well!
Founded by Cassandra DiMicco. Her inspiration when designing comes from classic and vintage collections. Aureum, meaning ‘golden’ in Latin is meant to evoke feelings of warmth and luxury. All pieces are plated in 24K gold because it is the deepest hue you can find.
Named after the designer and based out of Venice, California.
Before Megan’s exit from her career as an attorney, she and her sister had started The Sis Kiss. It was the side hustle the sisters loved that blossomed into their company. She does custom letter and number necklaces as well.
Jessica Lawson is the designer and founder of DEA DÍA Jewelry, based out of Los Ángeles. I love her pieces because she plays with different shapes and forms that are truly one-of-a-kind. “I believe jewelry can be about so much more than an accessory; rather it can be a tool of self-expression and confidence, a talisman to enhance your daily life.” -Jessica Lawson.
XOXO,
