If there’s ever an occasion for more glitz and glam, it’s the holidays—which is why we were drawn to the Harlow Shimmer necklace by 31 Bits. Its three strands of sparkling sapphire-blue beads (made from recycled paper, but they’re sturdy, not flimsy) mixed with gold glass beads makes for a subtle yet festive look. Each 31 Bits piece is handmade by women in Uganda, and Fishers boutique Lily & Sparrow is the only retailer in the Indianapolis area that carries the line. $58.
