ICYMI: Pandora's BE LOVE Charm Is All We Can Talk About Right Now

Fashion people know—the right piece of jewelry can make the difference between a good outfit and a great outfit. As an editor, I’m always searching for pieces to add to my style rotation, and I just found my next must-have. Pandora’s BE LOVE charm from its new Icons of Love collection is one of those finds that made me immediately text my friends, “Wait, have you seen this?” I mean, I’m not surprised—Pandora is known for creating unique pieces that are magnets for compliments. The BE LOVE charm is a twist on one of Pandora’s most classic heart charms. This new design gives the heart a puffy, round shape, but the charm still evokes the same values of individuality and strength as the previous design. You can even engrave the metal, making it a perfect gift for loved ones or a special purchase for yourself.

The charm is chic and versatile—it’s basically begging to be worn with pieces in your current stack. To prove it, I hit up two styling gurus, Who What Wear associate editor Chichi Offor and digital fashion creator Dannaed Garcia, to show me how they’re wearing the charm. Both women went with the more-is-more approach and added the charm to everything—rings, necklaces, earrings—and even stacked multiple charms on one chain to give off a bold look. See their styling tips below.

“An outfit without accessories is a blank canvas, so adding some jewelry really takes your look to the next level. I will never leave the house without earrings—they are a staple for my everyday looks! If I pick a chunky earring that day, I will [add] a dainty necklace, or if I pick dainty earrings I will layer on more necklaces. On this specific day, I went with the latter. Lately, I’ve wanted to incorporate more silver jewelry into my collection, and I know Pandora has always been iconic for silver [pieces]. The BE LOVE charm was the perfect way to get the metal into my rotation. I wanted to customize my stack to feel unique to me, so I added the cherry charm, my initials charm, and a cute star to go with the BE LOVE charms.” — Dannaed Garcia, digital creator

“Maybe it’s my Leo rising showing up and showing out, but I absolutely love when I get compliments on my jewelry, and that usually happens with the bolder styles. I am a firm believer in the power of jewelry and accessories in general. Putting on your favorite pieces really adds personality and uniqueness to a look. It’s the difference between being a mannequin and a living human being. Pandora is such a key to adding life to a look—all of their pieces are so unique. Especially the BE LOVE charm. I can’t get over the puffy design. I’ve been so into the mixed metals trend, so I definitely knew I wanted to mix silver and gold from the get go. The Pandora pieces made mixing silver and gold so seamless. I’m such a fan of a big stack when it comes to my necklaces and bracelets. [The brand has] so many options for crafting the perfect stack, which makes it easy to wear the different pieces over and over again.” — Chichi Offor, associate editor, Who What Wear
