Before I moved to L.A., one store I would *always* make time to stop in while visiting with my mom was Gorjana. This Laguna Beach-based jewelry brand is filled with minimalist, but stylish designs—the kind of pieces you can easily pull out of your jewelry box to wear daily—and I always loved picking out something new that I could wear over and over again until my next West Coast trip. And recently, I found out that we're far from the only ones who love the brand, since their Bespoke Bar Necklace ($80) just happens to be one of Michelle Obama's go-tos for gifting. Naturally, I had to test out this necklace to find out what makes it so good, and included my thoughts on it, along with a few other faves from the brand, below.
