The most romantic holiday of the year is right around the corner, so we tapped one of Dallas’ favorite jewelry designers for a little Valentine inspiration.   Amanda Sterett, two-time Best of Big D award-winner, has just unveiled her Spring/Summer 2012 Collection. Below, she highlights a half dozen of her personal picks, ideal for gifting to your sweetheart – or yourself – come February 14th.    

Talia Necklace, $420

“I love turquoise, as well as the mixture of textures in this piece,” says Amanda.

 

Gigi Earrings, $380

This classic pair is ideal for everyday wear, though special enough for an occasion.

   

Faith Earrings, $430

Amanda notes the “shapes and pops of color” in her Faith earrings.

These pastel tones are right on-trend for Spring.

 

Vivi Cuff, $650

Speaking of gifts we’d like to receive, this piece of arm candy is right up our alley.

   

Lola Earrings, $480

“The Lola is oversized, but doesn’t feel heavy in the ear,” explains the designer of this statement pair.

   

Birthstone Series ($55 - $120)

Finally, Amanda’s birthstone designs are a thoughtful, personalized gift.

Available in earrings, chains, or charms, they can also be layered to represent multiple loved ones.
