When you look good, you feel good – and that's precisely the mindset we want as we tackle assignments, conquer exams, and own the academic year.

2. ZODIAC CONSTELLATION CUFFS

Wear your stars on your sleeve – literally! This cuff turns your style into a personal constellation, as unique as your sign. Customize it further by pairing it with a birthstone curb chain bracelet or a gemstone + crystal stretch bracelet for that extra personal touch.

CARING FOR YOUR JEWELS: KEEP THEM SHINING



Loving your jewelry is non-negotiable. Keep them dry, store them thoughtfully, and a gentle buff with a soft cloth and simply clean with mild soap and water, to keep them shining like the stars they are.

Jewelry tarnishes over time due to a natural process of oxidation, where metals react with elements in the environment. It's a common occurrence that you should expect with any jewelry purchase, but regular care and maintenance can help preserve its shine and longevity. Care shouldn’t stop with just cleaning your ALEX AND ANI jewelry. To preserve its beauty, you’ll want to keep it safely stored. Our jewelry pouch and travel case are beautifully designed to keep your treasured pieces safe.
