Lately I’m big into layering jewelry—lots of strands of raw gold necklaces, chains with dangling pendants, piles of bracelets on one arm. The Ruffle Collection from San Antonio-based jewelry line Hazel Smyth fits in perfectly with my aesthetic du jour. Designer Elizabeth Herff (whose sister-in-law is Mary Herff, one half of the Austin clothing design duo Herff Christiansen created the Ruffle Collection using various semi precious stones—turquoise, smoky quartz, carnelian—linked onto gold wire chains culminating with a 14 karat gold toggle and ruffle charm. From $150.
