Overview of BaubleBar

BaubleBar was founded in 2011 by friends and former investment bankers, Daniella Yacobovsky and Amy Jain. The two Harvard graduates came up with the idea for an e-commerce business that would offer fast and affordable, fashionable accessories. 

Now, they’ve expanded to handle more than 1,500 orders a day, while the website receives 1 million visitors a month.

Offline, BaubleBar has also partnered with big retail stores like Target, Nordstrom, Bloomingdale’s, and Anthropologie.  

The brand’s fashion philosophy is to invest in essentials that you can mix and match in order to play around with your evolving personal style.

To meet that need, BaubleBar stays on top of trends to supply you with every possible jewelry option, or in their words, to provide the “ultimate playground.”

This BaubleBar jewelry review will now look at the NYC-based company’s pros and cons.

BaubleBar Necklaces Review

BaubleBar sells necklaces that turn heads on their own, or when layered for all of the looks you could need, from glam night to Netflix night.

Next in this BaubleBar fashion jewelry review, we’ll be looking at some of the brand’s bestselling pieces, including the Asymmetrical Letter Necklace (famously worn by Meghan Markle).  

BaubleBar Nameplate Necklace Review

The Nameplate Necklace represents a staple within the jewelry industry that has been seen time and time again since the 70s’.

But, the BaubleBar options are completely customizable, so you can spell a (short!) name, nickname, or phrase. But be advised that the brand does a max of 9 letter characters only.

BaubleBar offers 5 choices of chains, and 3 choices of fonts. The chains include:

14 K Gold Vermeil Box Chain
14 K Gold Braided Chain
14 K Gold Curb Chain
14 K Gold Paperclip Chain
The fonts include:

Block (case sensitive) 
Gothic (only first letter can be capitalized)
Script (only first letter an be capitalized) 
The necklace is also made with hypoallergenic 14K Gold with a lobster clasp for a bolder look, while the chain measures 16”, the extender is 3″, and the pendant is 30″.

You can purchase your custom BaubleBar NamePlate Necklace on final sale for $138.

BaubleBar Maya Brenner Asymmetrical Letter Necklace Review

The Maya Brenner Asymmetrical Letter Necklace is another personalizable piece, much like the Nameplate Necklace.

It has a super subtle appearance, making it great for layering. Ex-duchess and actress, Meghan Markle was seen sporting this necklace with a simple ‘A’ around her neck (we can only assume it was for her son, Archie).

This piece of jewelry is designed with 3 fixed points for customizable letters or characters so that you can play around with it to your individual taste and be sure everyone, or everything, is represented. 

The customizable options for your own BaubleBar Maya Brenner Necklace include chain material, chain length, and of course, the characters which are 0.25” each.

While the first one is complimentary, the two additional (optional characters) cost an extra $60 each. 

Character options include all letters of the alphabet, stars, or hearts. Customizable chain options are broken down as follows:

Metal

14 K Gold
14 K White Gold
14 K Rose Gold
Length

16” 
18” (+$25)
This necklace is also a final sale and excluded from site-wide promotions. The Maya Brenner Asymmetrical Letter Necklace sells for $240.

BaubleBar Nascita Necklace Review

The Nascita Necklace is a thick layering chain with a glittering birthstone pendant. Don’t worry if you don’t know what yours is, BaubleBar provides a whole guide featuring amethysts, emeralds, rubies, sapphires, and more.

If you’re wondering what the significance is, wearing your birthstone is supposed to bring you good luck, and protection from bad karma and negative energies.  

The box chain is made of 14K Gold plated sterling silver, and the colored stones are made with cubic zirconia.

Note that this necklace measures 16” in length with a 3” extender and lobster clasp. Purchase your own Nascita Necklace for $58. 

BaubleBar Earrings Review

There’s a bottomless collection of BaubleBar statement earrings ranging from whimsical and colorful to minimal and classic. This BaubleBar fashion jewelry review will focus on the brand’s bestselling earrings. 

BaubleBar Tassel Earrings Review

The Piñata Tassel earrings are made with lightweight glass beads. This style can seamlessly transition from accessories worn on a normal day at work to a night out with the ladies. 

This pair is made from hypoallergenic materials, measuring 3.25” in length and 0.48” in width, and weighs around 0.45oz. If a classic, elegant look is more our thing, try the BaubleBar Farah Ear Crawlers.

Looks like the popular Piñata Tassel is usually offered in black and white, but is currently sold out (normally, it is available for $36).

BaubleBar Spillo Earrings Review

 

If you’ve seen the BaubleBar safety pin earrings floating around, you’ve been looking for the brand’s Spillo Earrings.

These unique earrings are great conversation-starters that reflect fashion while representing function. You’ll notice that this style is pretty dainty and looks great paired with both studs and heavier earrings.

The Spillo Earrings are also constructed with 2.5 microns of 18K gold-plated sterling silver, so we suggest keeping them safe in a jewelry box when they aren’t being worn. Also, keep them away from water to maintain quality!

These earrings measure 1.12” in length and 0.30” in width, weighing a total of 0.03 oz. Get simple yet unique with the Spillo Earrings for $54.

BaubleBar Gummy Earring Set Review

The Gummy Earring Set is a stud earring shaped like, you guessed it, a gummy bear!

When you buy this set, you get 3 pairs of these adorable bears in Red, Pink, or Yellow. Before you ask, yes, they really do look edible, but this BaubleBar fashion jewelry review definitely doesn’t recommend popping them in your mouth!

They’re almost as lightweight as candy, which makes them easy to wear all day long, while also being hypoallergenic due to their Epoxy, Brass Casting, Titanium Posts, and shiny Gold Plating.

The Gummy Earring Set is high in demand and it is presently sold out, so you’d have to sign up for the waiting list. They normally ring in at $42.

BaubleBar Bracelets Review

Like all BaubleBar accessories jewelry, the bracelet collection offers tons of different styles. From busy and eclectic, heavy and glamorous, to delicate and stackable, there is something for every preference. This BaubleBar will focus on the brand’s bestselling bracelets.

BaubleBar Nameplate Bracelet Review

If you want a matching bracelet to go with your Nameplate Necklace, or necklaces simply aren’t your forté, then this style is made for you.

The Nameplate Bracelet is, of course, a customizable piece. Two very different chains are available for this style: 

14K Gold Vermeil Paperclip chain (for an extra +$20)
Baguette Gem
The Baguette Gem chain looks like a row of multi-colored glass rectangles made from glass and resin. For your custom name or phrase, you are limited to 8 alphabets. So, again, choose wisely! 

The Nameplate Bracelet is hypoallergenic, made with gold plated brass, and 14K Gold plated sterling silver. The inside circumference measures 6” with an extender of 1.25″.

This Nameplate Bracelet makes the perfect gift, or as a friendship bracelet, on final sale for $58.

BaubleBar Custom Multi Pisa Bracelet Review

Yet another custom option! Show a subtle, personal, pop of color with the Custom Multi Pisa Bracelet that can add a new look to the friendship bracelets we all loved as children.

Made with 6mm gold balls and rainbow-colored beads can be personalized with your choice of a name or phrase. This BaubleBar fashion jewelry review recommends a nickname or pet’s name!
