Timeless everyday jewellery

Looking for some timeless everyday jewellery i.e a couple of nice delicate necklaces and bracelets (gold or rose gold).

I have quite a few pairs of earrings already but would be open to more. Not so bothered by rings either but happy to hear your suggestions.

Budget- up to £100 per item.

Where do you buy yours from?

I buy the stuff you're talking about, but in sterling silver. I have not found better prices than on ebay. I am talking about 18" curb chains with a simple pendant or locket, or simple bracelets (chain or bangle). There are several reputable jewelers with fantastic feedback on there. Their overheads are much lower than any shop so you can get a good price.

Obviously, gold is going to cost more. But I see similar listings for 9ct gold chains. You have to watch out that it's not gold plated, though. I don't see the point of it, except for maybe earrings (as they won't be rubbing on your skin) or maybe something you'll rarely wear.

Agreeing with @AgingDisgracefullyHere I think for your budget, you'd be better off looking at sterling silver. Anything with a gold plate will need re-plating after a while. I think for elegant silver, you could look at Scandinavian brands, especially second-hand.
