Today's pick comes from Racked Dallas editor Anna Caplan.

I kind of have a thing for rose gold. Maybe it has to do with getting a beautiful thin-banded ring from my husband on the Ponte Vecchio in Florence years ago. With Europe in the very distant rearview (we're parents now, thank you very much) the good vibes about the hue have translated into a free-associative kind of thing. I see rose gold, I love it.

So when I found this Giles & Brother Pave Railroad Spike ring in rose gold plated brass at the new store Planet Bardot on Dallas's Knox Street, I caved. The ring ($74 at the store; $80 elsewhere online) is at once delicate and chunky. And the bit of sparkle from the pave crystals doesn't hurt either. It's my kind of simple accessory, a perfect bridge (as it were) from back then to now.
