The sighting: Gabby Barrett led an enthusiastic crowd in a singalong of her megahit, “I Hope,” during Nashville’s Big Bash, a New Year’s Eve party. The country singer was radiant under the lights and so was her jewelry.

The jewels: Barrett showed off some serious NYE bling with the Kendall Earrings by Nickho Rey in soulful garnet. They’re a dramatic style featuring four lines of garnets suspended from a horizontal garnet-encrusted bar topped by garnet triangles. The deep garnet red was the perfect complement to the artist’s iconic song about anger after heartbreak.

Gabby-Barrett-earrings The earrings are rose gold vermeil and listed on Nickho Rey’s website for $378.

The trends: Celebrities love this kind of extra-wide earring that features a series of cascading drops from a horizontal line. It’s a fun and dramatic take on the classic chandelier and the extra width is still unusual enough that it feels daring.

Barrett herself recently wore gold earrings with a similar silhouette in promo photos for her 2021 CMAs performance, so we know she’s a fan of this trend.

What do we think? I have no nits to pick at all on this one. The look is suitably dramatic for a pop star on NYE with the added bonus of garnet being the perfect color both for a winter event AND for a song with a strong revenge vibe.

Judgement: 10/10 for singing a great song while wearing great earrings.

What do YOU think?

One of the good ones!! I love these earrings.

It’s okay but it doesn’t drive me wild.

I hope she chooses fine jewelry next time, not demi-fine.

I don’t like this look and I don’t like your song references.

You’ve failed to capture my feelings in any of these choices!

Closing With Confidence: How Bailey's Fine Jewelry Achieved Outstanding Results With Wilkerson

When Trey Bailey, President and CEO of Bailey's Fine Jewelry, decided to close the Crabtree location in Raleigh, North Carolina after 15 years, he knew the decision needed to be handled with intention and professionalism. The goal was clear: exit the location while maintaining financial strength and honoring the store's legacy. Having worked with Wilkerson successfully in the past, Bailey understood the value of their comprehensive approach. "They understood both the emotional and financial sides of the store closing sale," Trey explains. "Their reputation for professionalism, results and care made it a very easy decision." The results exceeded expectations. Wilkerson helped Bailey's sell through significant inventory while maintaining the dignity of the closing process. "They don't just run a sale, they help close a chapter in the best way possible," Bailey says, strongly recommending Wilkerson to any jeweler facing a similar transition.
