As the second home game of the football season approaches, you can definitely count on local spots like Frock Candy and Kat Noel Designs for a host of gameday and essential jewelry pieces.
The stores cater to shoppers in a different way, but they both provide fashionable jewelry nonetheless. Frock Candy not only prides itself on fashionable apparel and shoes, but an assortment of jewelry as well.
“We’ll definitely always have you dressed and impressed,” said Frock Candy employee Johanna Majors.
The boutique is located in the heart of Perkins Rowe and always welcomes new customers.
Though gameday stackable bracelets are Frock Candy’s bestsellers during football season, assistant manager Allison Comeaux said the store has more to offer.
Frock Candy has a variety of jewelry, ranging from casual studs, dressy drop-earrings and dainty necklaces to long statement pieces. With a restock in jewelry every Monday, Frock Candy is sure to always have the latest jewelry trends.
With prices ranging from $8 to $36, the store has the college student’s budget in mind.
Though having local options can be beneficial, online shopping can be more convenient. With her jewelry available on Etsy.com, Kathryn Jenkins, creator of Kat Noel Designs, provides exclusive jewelry at your fingertips.
Jenkins kicked off her custom jewelry line in 2014 as a hobby but has since established her brand. She said she prides herself on using quality materials so that her handmade jewelry lasts.
“It’s crazy because little girls have commented under pictures of my cuff bracelets with interest,” Jenkins said.
Every Kat Noel Design is made with someone in mind. Jenkins has created customized pieces for bridesmaids, as well as customers just looking for something special to complement their outfit. Being a University alumna, Jenkins didn’t forget to create jewelry that shows purple-and-gold school spirit.
“My line includes $22 mini cuffs and $24 studs that are your everyday accessories in team colors, or you can go for a statement necklace for $64 that is sure to get you some attention,” she said.
Every outfit needs complementary pieces and these local shops have all that you need.
