Aside from being a sports competition, it’s clear that the Olympics has greatly influenced fashion—the teams’ uniforms are a good example. That. said, we picked out some jewelry pieces inspired in coveted gold, silver, and bronze because we all need to feel like a winner too.
Whether you want to style up for the Olympic season or just looking for new baubles, you might find what you’re looking for below.
Since we’re talking about medals, wearing a pendant is the closest to it. To put some color into your plain shirt or dress, go for Tiffany & Co’s Palolma Piccaso Garnet Dot Charm and Chain.

I find that when you wear earrings with big designs, they can frame your face nicely, especially if you wear your hair up. Stella McCartney’s gold-plated earrings (P26,837) can achieve that effect with its elongated hoops and a single pearl in the middle.
