Let me start by saying this necklace surprised me—in the best way. The infinity heart pendant has this delicate sparkle from the birthstone crystals that catches light like it’s way more expensive than it actually is. I wore it to a dinner date, and my partner kept complimenting how ‘elegant’ it looked (mission accomplished).

The 18+2 inch chain is *chef’s kiss*—long enough to layer with other necklaces but not so long that the pendant gets lost. The clasp is sturdy, too; no fumbling with tiny hooks like some flimsy chains. And can we talk about the presentation box? It’s got this velvety feel that makes gifting it feel extra special (I may or may not have pretended it was a ‘just because’ gift to myself).

One note: The heart pendant is bigger than I expected—not dainty, but not overwhelming either. If you prefer subtle jewelry, maybe size-check the dimensions first. But for the price? The weight and finish make it feel like a steal. My sister (a July baby) stole mine after seeing how the birthstone shimmered in sunlight—guess I’m ordering another!

Pro tip: The silver plating hasn’t tarnished after weeks of wear, even with my perfume habit. For a budget-friendly piece that dresses up like it costs triple? Zero regrets.
