Gold Jewelry: Sound Investment and Timeless Fashion Statement

     What are your prized possessions? These days, as gadget companies try to integrate technology into the lifestyle of consumers more seamlessly, wearable gadgets are all the rage. Think of smartwatches, high-tech rings and other wares merge the conveniences of modern technology and the appeal of fashion accessories. Did you know that ages ago before wearable tech became a thing, the concept of multi-purpose wearables has been around for some time now in the form of jewelry?

     Contrary to what others may think, jewelry is not only a show of status symbol in the society and infusing a look with a different level of flair. A piece of jewelry definitely gives every outfit a touch of luxury. Imagine those huggie earrings, a gold watch or, a gem-encrusted ring that can certainly give that "shine bright like diamonds" effect to the wearer. In addition, gold jewelry seems to be always on the radar of fashion influencers--just in different interpretations. But beyond aesthetics and creative expression, jewelry is actually a practical commodity and I agree with that 100%. Want to know why? Read more below :)

MYGOLD SM Makati Store Opening

     This post is just in time for Mother's Day. If you're still searching for a precious and memorable gift for your mom or your wife or to the woman of your life, a jewelry is always a good option. Don't think it's out of your budget because there are brands of jewelry in the market today that offers high quality but affordable timeless pieces.

     I was invited to the store launch of one jewelry store that I will recommend to you. During their opening, they have a sale that went up to 40% discount. That's an awesome deal, right? So I will not keep you waiting and will muse about the event highlights after the jump :)

MYGOLD Sm Makati Store Opening

     Before I'll share with you an excerpt of MYGOLD's story, here are three things why a jewelry is a perfect gift this Mother's Day and an accessory to keep and cherish for a lifetime.

• Jewelry is always seen as precious heirlooms that serve more than decorative pieces, rather, a fitting remembrance celebrating one’s important milestones.
• A Jewelry is beautiful, timeless and definitely worth keeping investment- ask this to a woman and her eyes will answer YES with a sparkle.
• Whether it’s a symbol of love expressed through a delicate engagement ring, a symbol of a lifelong commitment expressed through a pair of wedding bands or celebrating new beginnings expressed through a dazzling pair of earrings or a lovely bracelet, jewelry always make for an attractive keepsake that multiplies in value through time. 

MYGOLD Sm Makati Store Opening

     From its humble beginnings when it was just a two-showcase display of religious items made from Philippine gold, MYGOLD went on to becoming the jeweler of choice by many because of its fine selection of exquisite craftsmanship and quality in jewelry. 

     Attracting customers from all walks of life, MYGOLD started as a two-display showcase inside the department store. It wasn’t hard for mall-goers to take notice of MYGOLD’s beautiful pieces – all elegantly displayed as they passed by the jeweler’s spot. Given the Filipino’s love for celebrating life milestones and natural inclination to express their love through more creative ways, MYGOLD jewelry has become a favored brand when it comes to quality jewelry.

     Initially offering crosses and pieces with the image of the beloved Sto. Nino, MYGOLD went on to partner with another manufacturer in 1987 in Singapore. From there, the brand started offering a more diverse lineup of pieces which featured diamonds, pearls, and today, even colored stones.

MYGOLD's Pearls, Bracelets, Pendants, and Necklaces

     In 2007, MYGOLD held its first-ever private sale through a partnership with a bank. Clients were able to enjoy an exclusive viewing of the new and more sophisticated collections of the jeweler which included pieces with diamonds and south sea pearls. 

     Celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2012, MYGOLD is proud to have 15 branches all over the country, earning the trust of its clients through the years as they were also able to provide certificates for diamond purchases and other jewelry items.
