TrueFacet’s Guide to Achieving Your New Year’s Resolution

We rounded up the five most popular New Year’s resolutions and share the watch and fine jewelry pieces that can help you actually keep your resolution!

New Year’s Resolution #1: Get fit.
You would be pleasantly surprised at just how much wearing some slick fit gear will inspire you to hit the gym more frequently. So toss out your ratty college t-shirts and gym shorts with the worn-out elastic band and upgrade your athletic attire. A fresh pair of sneakers, new sweat-wicking tees and a sporty watch with a rubber strap will motivate you to keep up your new fitness regime.


New Year’s Resolution #2: Focus on well-being.
The new year is a time when a lot of us look inward and think about improving our mental and emotional health, namely by starting to put yourself first. And, as a part of making room for more “me time,” we suggest a piece of jewelry with personal significance to serve as a daily reminder to love yourself.


New Year’s Resolution #3: Travel more.
The increase in commercial travel during the mid-century inspired a lot of revolutionary watch complications like slide rule and rotating bezels to help pilots make in-flight calculations. So, if your resolution is to rack up frequent flyer miles, jet-set in style and invest in a GMT watch. The GMT bezel allows you to effortlessly set a second time zone, making it a practical and stylish travel companion.


New Year’s Resolution #4: Learn a new hobby.
Broaden your horizons and build a watch collection. It’s far more than just buying cool watches: a fundamental part of collecting watches is understanding their intricate inner workings and the rich tradition of haute horology. There is also an incredible community aspect to watch collecting that makes it a very social new hobby to enjoy. Jump into this new world by investing in a watch with a design and history you can study and appreciate.


New Year’s Resolution #5: Get organized.
This is the year you finally weed through your closet. As your clean out your closet and purge the pieces you no longer wear, take a peek at your jewelry box. Anything in there you can part with? TrueFacet’s consignment program can help you earn money for the items that no longer suit your style. (Talk about an incentive to stick to your resolution!) Learn how you can earn more here.

The Best Ways to Dress up Your New Year’s Eve Look

It’s time for a new year and new looks! Make this New Year’s Eve a memorable one by adding a style factor with statement jewelry and breathtaking dresses. How do you do it? Start by reading this article, as our fashion experts unveiled some timeless jewelry ideas to help elevate your personality and get you ready for the most stylish night of the year.

Stylish Jewelry for Your New Year’s Eve Party:

Break the rules and follow your heart! Hand cuffs are common so make an entry with ear cuffs instead. This was one of the biggest trends in 2014 so rock it this New Year’s Eve as well. Make sure to pair it wisely so they don’t overpower your look.

If rings are more your style, try a ring like the one below with multi-color stones and a dreamy, feminine design. Slide on one statement ring and your look is complete!

Play it cool by going trendy with floral patterns and exciting colors. Pair a floral necklace with a nude dress or a beaded necklace in multiple rows.

Dress or jewelry – which comes first?

Obviously, it’s the dress first and for a good reason! It is lot easier to find jewelry to compliment a dress rather than a dress to pair with the jewelry. You might have a pretty pearl choker in your closet, but that doesn’t mean it will go with anything you buy. Once you have your dress in mind it’s time to start shopping!

Plan your party look wisely!

Vintage jewelry is as tasteful as matured wine! A statement cocktail vintage ring from a brand like David Yurman elegantly matches your evening party look.

For the tux and tie look: sophisticated wristwatches and cutting-edge cufflinks are definitely top priority. Which luxury watch would you wear to complete the look? If you’re going for the best, it’s got to be Rolex, for its pristine statement making luxury and sophistication.
