Get your money's worth and actually get maximum use of your jewelry by focusing more on buying simple but statement accessories. Now, let's break down 5 Sahira Jewelry Design staples to create the jewelry capsule collection of your dreams.
First, let's start with one of our newest obsessions, our Crosby Hoops. These hoops give instant elegance to any day or night time look. They aren't your basic gold hoops, which is why we included them in our capsule collection. A more fashion forward piece without being too over the top for a Monday morning.
Next, is our adored Jenna Link Bracelet. This piece is really special because it is best worn by itself. You don't have to spend any time stacking a bunch bracelets with the Jenna, because she is the star of the show on her own.
Thirdly, our Dome Ring, which is guaranteed daily compliments. You can't have a complete outfit without a pop of gold on your fingers. Capsule pieces are all about simplicity while making a statement, and the Dome ring does just that.
Next up, is our sleek and beloved Codie Link Chain. If we had to pick only one necklace to keep in our capsule collection, it would without a doubt be the Codie. The perfect piece for layering or wearing by itself to complete your look.
Now that you have a guide to the finest jewelry capsule collection, you can get to shopping!
Stay tuned for more styling tips on the blog
xoxo, Sahira

Here, the VS Angel is spending her afternoon at Nobu in Malibu. Sara paired our best selling Daria Hoops with a floral Reformation dress, her favorite Prada sunnies, and an elegant top knot bun. The roses printed on her dress, complete the look by giving it a flirty and fun vibe, a perfect outfit for Spring!
Sara is the queen of the off-duty model look. Here, the model is wearing a white button down layered with a cream sweater over top and a chic oversized blazer to pull the whole look together. The VS angel finished off this outfit with our Daria Hoops to add an extra touch of elegance and femininity.
Less perfection and more authenticity. The stunning model is pictured bare faced wearing our Nisea Earrings. Sahira Design Jewelry can amplify even the simplest outfit. Here, Sara's look is simple and effortless, but by adding her gold SJD huggies, it instantly gives the whole outfit a more luxurious look.
There is nothing more powerful than an all black outfit! Sara styled our Daria Hoops here with a simple black tank top, an oversized blazer and a pair of black boyfriend jeans keeping it simple but always chic. The Portuguese model has a very sophisticated and elegant style. A classic blazer and a pair of Sahira Jewelry Design gold hoops are a staple for Sara Sampaio's off-duty model look.

2017 marks my 3rd year in the business, and I can tell you in no uncertain terms that each of those years have been full of lessons learned. When I started Sahira Jewelry Design in 2014, the process of starting a jewelry brand was new to me. Taking this on was scary, and often stressful, but here are a few lessons I learned from starting, making mistakes, rebranding and starting again.
1. Trust your gut. This lesson took me a while to learn, and I definitely got there the hard way. You will be amazed at the results you can achieve when you finally trust yourself.
2. It’s all about your team. The success of a brand has everything to do with the team that brings it to life. I'm still a one man show, but surround yourself with people who believe in your vision and who show passion in what you do to make it real.
3. Inspiration is a practice. It’s more than a mood board, more than flipping through photos for hours on Pinterest, more than the never-ending Instagram scroll (which I'm super guilty of). It’s about connecting things: ideas, moments, materials, art, design, life experiences... My biggest inspiration comes from what I know and continuously learn about women, what they want (this one can be hard), and what motivates them.
4. Leap before you look. Don’t be afraid to do the thing.
5. Don’t apologize: for being you. For learning, listening or asking questions. For believing in yourself, or for needing a boost of confidence some days. Do apologize: if you mess up-- own your sh*t.
6. Reinvent.
7. Rules were made to be broken...
8. … but always keep your word.

*This will act as your first layer within your trio necklace party
Necklace styles of this length would be the: Sophie Necklace, Circle Disc Choker, Leila Cuban Link Choker, & Mini Pearl Choker
*This will act as your second layer within your trio necklace party
Necklace styles of this length would be the: Anastasia Crescent Necklace, Love Disc Necklace, Alexa Crescent Dainty, Miraculous Mary Necklace, Mother of Pearl Necklace
*This will act as your third and final layer within your trio necklace party
Necklace styles of this length would be the: Sophie Lariat, Not So Basic Gold Chain, Rosary Necklace, & Long Pearl Necklace
The main thing you need to be aware of is that each layer should be 1 - 2 inches longer or shorter in length. The key to a beautiful necklace party is having enough space between the layers so that each necklace style shines on its own and doesn't get overly crowded by the one above or below it.
Check out the image below for a real life example and our necklace length guide to help you when buying your jewels!
XOXO, Sahira

]]>After over two years, our brand has had such an amazing growth! As we have evolved, I am beyond thrilled and so proud to present our new name Sahira Jewelry Design!
“Top 100 Senior Photographer & ICON Status Award”
SENIOR STYLE GUIDE MAGAZINE
As many of you know, I have had the opportunity to work with Claire Anderson Photography on so many occasions over the last two years. This ultimate girl boss has created her own photography empire over the last eight years. I'm so excited to do a little Q & A with her, so you guys can also learn a little more about one of my favorite girl bosses EVER!
___________________________________________________________________________
-First of all, you were one of the first people I ever met through Instagram! How did you find or start working with Sangie since, at the time, you were new to the area?
So if you’re wondering if hashtags work, I am here to tell you they do! I had just moved to the area (like not even a week before) and I saw you were local in Palm Beach, so I reached out to see if you needed a photographer. The next day we met at Starbucks and talked for like 3 hours, mostly about business... then, we were like, we should just hang out! Two years later and we’ve been inseparable ever since!
-How did Claire Anderson Photography come about?
Since I can remember, I have always been obsessed with pictures and photography. I started off as a graphic designer and photo editor, then I assisted a wedding photographer at a wedding and that was it! I started my photography business 8 years ago in my hometown of Dallas, TX as Clara Bella Photography, then I moved to LA then here to West Palm Beach and thats when I decided to change my business name to my name!
-Where do you find your inspiration?
I find my inspiration almost everywhere, but I try to pay attention to what really inspires me. I can admire a pretty photo but I try to dig in deeper to find out what about that photo is it that I like? for ex. the lighting, pose, model etc. That is the different between drawing inspiration and copying. Stay true to yourself and your inspiration will lead the way!
-What do you feel is the key to true success?
Persistence and Consistence. If you can nail those then you will be unstoppable.
-What’s the most rewarding part of working one-on-one with your clients?
Seeing their face light up when I show them the back of the camera. For my high school senior girls especially, I had a mom tell me that her daughter viewed herself differently and even had more confidence after we did our photo shoot. Another girl told me that she had never felt so beautiful, and that alone is my “why”.
-What’s the most challenging thing about being a girl boss? And how do you cope or stay motivated?
Being too hard or not hard enough on yourself. I have to remind myself that life is a series of seasons. Some will be hard, some will be easy, some will feel like you’re on top of the world and the next you will feel like you’re at the bottom. But as long as you keep your eye on the end goal, you will be able to see how every step along the way was necessary. Also to check in with yourself like you would a friend. Ask yourself, “How are you? Is today getting you closer to where you want to be?” Also, positive affirmations and self development books are key.
-What’s the best and most rewarding thing about being your own boss?
Setting a goal that you at one point maybe thought was impossible, then reaching it.
-Congratulations on all your publications and awards! Can you go back to that moment when you were told you were going to be featured on a publication for the first time. How did it feel to see that when it finally came out?
Thank you! Honestly it was a little unreal. I remember how much I would admire them and dream of one day getting to be in one. Every publication and award has been incredible and so humbling, but the most rewarding was being published in Vogue. It was a true pinch myself moment. I still remember where I was when I first saw it in print. The funny thing is, not even a year before, I actually posted the magazine with Kim and Kanye on the cover, and said (jokingly) that my dream was to shoot the (cover) of Vogue one day! Well it wasn’t the cover, but it was close enough for me! 😉
-What advice do you have for a babe who wants to venture out and become a full-time entrepreneur/designer/artist and start her own biz?
Do your research! Find a mentor. Dive in head first. Write it out (in your own handwriting). Become obsessed. Don’t give up! If you don’t give up then its only a matter of time before you get there.. and the time will pass anyway!

A little fun fact...
When I first met my husband - then boyfriend - I told him it was my lifelong dream to live in Miami. He booked a trip for the next week (our first trip together!), and we absolutely hated it because it was BEFORE smartphones existed (this ages me lol) and we got lost in the worst areas. It took a little while and a cross country move, but 10 years later we made it and I think it’s safe to say we’re here to stay, because we just bough our first home in West Palm Beach! 😊

Some of my personal Claire Anderson X Sangie favorites :
Our Mini Pearl Choker layer with our Small Crescent Horn, and Sophie Lariat.
As you know, we LOVE our Sophie Choker! Here is it paired with our Alexa Crescent Dainty Necklace and Lolo Lariat
Below our best selling Ella Double Lariat and Pearl Choker! Can we agree this is a killer dainty combo?
Because there ain't no party like an arm-candy party, we highly encourage the layering of the following pretties to add a little edge with a touch of sparkle to your wrist! Our Sparkly Nights Bracelet layered with Dark Knight Set, and Onyx Layering Bracelet.
Stay tuned for more Sangie layering and style tips!!

Summer is the perfect time of year to focus on accessories. Keep your outfit minimal and simple and mix, match, stack & layer on that jewelry!
