Celebrate 60 in Style with the Perfect Emerald Tennis Necklace

According to an article in Psychology Today, milestone birthdays often prompt us to take stock of our lives and seize the “fresh-start effect.” This means that as you approach your 60th, it’s the perfect time to treat yourself to a celebration that’s as unforgettable as you are. And what better way to do that than by accessorizing with luxurious jewelry, like a stunning emerald tennis necklace?

Why the Big 6-0 Deserves a Big Celebration

Sixty is special. It marks the start of a fresh decade where you can embrace the best version of yourself. Researchers at The Wharton School call it the “fresh-start effect”—a time when you can differentiate between the person you’ve been and who you aspire to be.

So, why not step into this new chapter draped in style? Let’s make sure you do it with sparkle, from layered emerald necklaces to statement rings that speak to your inner fashionista.

Five Glamorous Ways to Celebrate Your 60th Birthday

Whether you’re planning a quiet dinner or a glamorous party, here are five fabulous ways to celebrate your 60th birthday in style. And yes, we’ve got the perfect jewelry pieces to match each theme.

1. Black-Tie Birthday Bash

A classic black-tie soirée is perfect for those who want to go all out. Think elegant gowns, a luxurious venue, and champagne flowing all night long. To match the glamour, layer three emerald tennis necklaces: the Linear Half Emerald Tennis Necklace, the Bold Burst Emerald Tennis Necklace, and the Bold Emerald Tennis Necklace.

Each piece, crafted with 18-karat gold, adds depth and dimension to your look. Pair them with our Classic Diamond Tennis Bracelet for an extra touch of sophistication. The seamless design of the bracelet effortlessly complements your necklace layers, making sure you shine from every angle.

2. Garden Party Brunch

If a daytime celebration is more your vibe, host a garden party brunch. Think floral dresses, wide-brim hats, and pastel decor. For this, the Linear Half Emerald Tennis Necklace is your best bet. Its 2.25 carats of emerald baguettes catch the sunlight beautifully, adding a hint of sparkle to your outfit.

Stack it with the Bold Burst Rainbow Sapphire Tennis Bracelet from our Edgy Casual collection for a playful, yet elegant contrast. With its vibrant rainbow sapphires, this bracelet brings a fresh pop of color to your look, perfect for a laid-back yet chic setting.

3. Luxury Beach Getaway

Why not turn 60 with a beach vacation, surrounded by serene waves and a sunset that rivals your glow? A beach party is the perfect opportunity to showcase our Bold Emerald Tennis Necklace. With over 13 carats of emerald baguettes, this piece captures the rich colors of the ocean.

Pair it with the Bold Emerald Tennis Bracelet for those who think green not just for May but for prosperity. The bracelet’s 7.85 carats of baguette-cut emeralds add that extra bit of shimmer against the sand and sea. Add a couple of rings from our collection—like the Double Short Stack Emerald Half Band —to keep your beachside look effortlessly chic.

4. Cozy Dinner with Loved Ones

If you prefer an intimate dinner with family and friends, this is the time to bring out our Classic Gold Full Pave Tennis Necklace. Its 13.25 carats of pave white diamonds make it a show-stopper, even in a more relaxed setting. Layer it with the Classic Diamond 36" Inch 50/50 Tennis Necklace for a modern twist on a classic look.

The ability to wear this piece long or double it up gives you flexibility, whether you’re in a sleek jumpsuit or a flowy dress. The necklaces pair perfectly with our One of a Kind Opal Doublet Shield Ring, adding a unique pop of color to your outfit.

5. Glamorous Night Out

For those who love the nightlife, celebrate your milestone with a glamorous evening out on the town. This calls for a stacked wrist of bracelets from our Edgy Casual collection. Start with the Block-Chain Full Pave Diamond Thin Bracelet, its pave white diamonds adding just the right amount of edge.

Then, layer in the Bold Burst Rainbow Sapphire Tennis Bracelet for a colorful twist. Top it off with the Bold Burst Emerald Tennis Necklace to keep your neck sparkling all night long. Add a pair of dramatic earrings and a little black dress, and you’re ready to dance the night away.

Layered Look, Elevated Style

One of the hottest trends right now is layering jewelry. It’s a way to make each piece your own, showing off your unique style while adding depth to your look.

Our emerald tennis necklaces are designed for layering, with each piece offering a different shade of green and sparkle. Whether it’s the seamless design of the Bold Emerald Tennis Necklace or the vivid contrast in the Bold Burst Emerald Tennis Necklace, combining these pieces creates a look that’s both cohesive and striking.

And don’t forget about stacking your bracelets. A mix of emeralds, diamonds, and rainbow sapphires gives your wrist an irresistible sparkle. It’s a little rebellious, a little glamorous, and completely you.

Rings that Shine

No birthday celebration is complete without a few stunning rings. Shop rings from our collection to add that finishing touch. The Classic Gold Full Baguette Milli Eternity Band with almost 4 carats of baguette diamonds is perfect for those who want a little flexibility—literally! Its design lets you wear it on multiple fingers.

For those who like a bit of contrast, the Double Short Stack Emerald Half Band is a perfect match for your emerald necklace and bracelet stack, offering a balance of rich green and dazzling white diamonds. And if you want something truly eye-catching, our One of a Kind Opal Doublet Shield Ring is a conversation starter that adds a touch of magic to any outfit.

For a nod to tradition with a modern twist, don’t miss out on our La Fantaisie Star Diamond Signet Ring. It’s a masterful blend of classic style and whimsy, making it perfect for a birthday that’s all about celebrating your unique journey.
