Whether you're just starting your collection or looking to brush up on the essentials, explore sizing, stacking, styling, and shopping for all your favourite pieces.
This thoughtful approach to jewellery buying is a great way to ensure you're purchasing pieces you'll actually wear.
Simply put, the cost-per-wear (or CPW) of your jewellery is the purchase price divided by the number of times the item is worn. For instance, if you purchase a pair of $1000 diamond hoops and wear them twice, your CPW is $500 ($1000 ÷ 2 = $500). However, if you take those same $1000 hoops and wear them an average of twice per week, you have an investment that really pays off in terms of CPW - $1000 ÷ 104 = $9.62. Wear them even more, and the CPW goes down even further!
