We were thrilled to see how well our diamond stud earrings paired with Hayden Panettiere’s beautiful (new) red locks.

Her earring stack is stunning and we ran to recreate it.

Whether you choose lab-grown or natural diamonds, diamond solitaire studs work perfectly as part of an earring stack and with a hairstyle of beachy waves. If you’re looking for a similar look as Hayden, go for round diamonds with white gold, like these options in lab-grown and natural diamond:

14k white gold natural diamond solitaire stud earrings (1 ½ ct. tw.)	14k white gold lab-grown diamond solitaire stud earrlings (1 ½ ct. tw.)

Then add your favorites to the stack in mixed metals! Here are a few of our favs:

It was great!”

Buying an engagement ring and wedding band isn’t just about jewelry – it’s about a lifetime of love. And when you buy from Robbins Brothers, it’s not just a purchase – we’re here for you for life!

Our Houston Clearlake/Baybrook store general manager, Alex Garcia, is featured in the November 2022 issue of Modern Luxury magazine! Alex has a background in chemical engineering and has found that jewelry (especially engagement rings and wedding rings!) fulfills his passion for both science and people.

Alex notes that an engagement ring or wedding ring purchase can be daunting and he loves helping people through the process.

He has put together a team who take joy in helping people navigate one of the great moments of their lives. They are dedicated to providing support and guidance to those in Houston to confidently purchase a high quality ring of their dreams at an unbeatable price.

That care and joy were on full display at the Bridgerton event earlier this year. Kris Land, VP of Marketing for Robbins Brothers, chose the Houston location to introduce the event because she knew the team, led by general manager Alex Garcia, could pull it off with aplomb. “Alex creates a special feeling in the store that’s hard to describe,” she says. “This isn’t a transaction. It’s about listening to someone’s story about their relationship. I noticed a really special vibe that happens in the store and that comes from the top.”

Stop in today and let Alex help you find the perfect ring!

When Geraldine joined Robbins Brothers in 2019, she was struck by the Robbins Brothers focus on honoring the craft of jewelry. 

“It was a breath of fresh air for me because it is such a tight knit community and built of people who have been in the industry for so long. I did enjoy learning from everybody’s expertise and everyone was really welcoming and wanted to share their knowledge with me of workmanship and quality and how you look at those things as a lifetime kind of purchase.“

We are so happy to have Geraldine as our private label engagement ring buyer, ensuring that we have the best selection of beautiful, timeless engagement rings and exactly what you’re looking for.

Esteemed Guests Enjoyed “Bridgerton”-Themed Costume Contest to Win a $7K Platinum Vintage Diamond Ring, Bouquet Making, a Live String Quartet, Photo Opps and Sparkling Diamonds

On Sunday, August 14, guests adorned in their best Regency-era-inspired outfits waltzed into the Robbins Brothers San Diego location to enjoy a morning filled with all things “Bridgerton.”

As they entered, guests were taken through a full “Bridgerton”-inspired experience inside the 8,136-square-foot store, passing through a magnificent floral arch, taking photos in front of a luxurious flower wall and customizing their own wispy floral bouquets. Attendees also enjoyed a “Bridgerton”-themed cocktail known as “Penelope’s Pink Potation,” decadent breakfast bites and desserts, listened to pop music transformed by a local string quartet, and of course, guests were invited to try on and play with the jewelry. Robbins Brothers store associates showed off vintage-style engagement rings reminiscent of the Regency-era, along with more modern styles.

“We were thrilled to bring the Bridgerton Brunch to our beautiful San Diego Robbins Brothers store,” said Kris Land, vice president of marketing at Robbins Brothers. “We successfully hosted this event back in May at one of our Houston stores and it was an enormous success. Afterward, our Instagram followers voted and chose San Diego as the second location for this event and it proved to be an excellent choice.”

Charlotte Schmidt, general manager of Robbins Brothers’ flagship San Diego location said that she was thrilled to host this event at her store.

“Our loyal guests absolutely loved this Bridgerton-themed event, and our store associates were equally as excited,” said Schmidt. “It was truly a joy to spend a morning celebrating in theme and playing with gorgeous diamonds.”

Since the swoon-worthy second season of “Bridgerton” premiered on March 25, 2022, the popular show racked up 444.8 million hours. The first season of “Bridgerton” remains Netflix’s No. 1 English-language TV show, with 625.5 million hours streamed in its first 28 days of release. Smithsonian Magazine recently reported that a big part of the Regency-era TV and streaming popularity is due to our romantic notions of courtship in that time and that old-fashioned romance is the most enduring.

Throughout the event, the latest news from Lady Whistledown was shared and five lucky guests randomly won prizes like a 14K rose gold diamond halo pendant valued at $445, and a pair of 14K rose gold diamond halo earrings valued at $395! The most exciting giveaway was slated for the best dressed – a $7,000 vintage platinum diamond engagement ring – which would be gifted to the “diamond of the season.”

The Robbins Brothers event staff voted after the soiree to select the top eight best dressed from all attendees. Voting went live on Instagram and TikTok from Tuesday, August 15 through Friday, August 19. A total of 927 unique votes were collected over four days and the winner was determined between social media results (50%) and event staff rankings (50%). The lucky winner was Susanna Mera and Alejandro Hernandez of San Diego.

“We had a fabulous time at the Robbins Brothers Bridgerton event!” said Connie Kamilla, San Diego social media influencer and partner for the event. “The food, cute drinks, music, costumes, decor, everything! They didn’t spare any details. As a loyal Robbins Brothers customer, it was a pleasure being helped again by their amazing team.”

The Bridgerton Brunch was hosted just a few weeks prior to the store’s exclusive Designer Event, taking place from September 5 to 11, 2022. The Robbins Brothers San Diego store has been a staple in the community since its opening in 1998.

Guests & Community Attended Day-Long Celebration Complete with Designer Jewelry & Craft Cocktail Pairings, Live Electric Violinist & Over $10,000 in Diamond Giveaways

May was an exciting month for the the Robbins Brothers Dallas location! The store, located at 14080 Dallas Pkwy, recently hosted a day-long grand reopening celebration to show off the store’s new nearly half a million dollar renovation after 16 successful years serving the local community.

The store renovation included lobby and elevator upgrades, new furnishings and fixtures, a “Hidden Moments” portrait series featuring couples and a Heritage Wall highlighting photography from the brand’s 100-year history and trends throughout the decades. The updates modernize the store to align more closely with the reimagined direction of the Robbins Brothers brand. In order to ensure the sales associates could continue serving guests, the renovation took place in the evening and early morning hours, spanning over two weeks, while the store was closed.

The event, which was held on May 14, 2022, featured designer jewelry pairings with craft cocktails on the “rocks,” dream bling try-on sessions, live electronic violin music and many ideal Instagram-able moments.

The grand reopening was also graced with a surprise marriage proposal! Guests Milton and Shanice were at the event checking out her dream engagement ring. Once Shanice stepped away, Milton confided in a Robbins Brothers associate about his nerves with the engagement and that he wanted to do it soon. The Robbins Brothers associate then encouraged Milton to pop the question there and then… and he did!

Every attendee was entered to win a variety of diamond jewelry prizes including diamond halo earrings and stunning pendant necklaces. One lucky guest, Preston Skinner, won the grand prize… a dream engagement ring featuring a setting from Gabriel & Co. and an opportunity to hand-select their own breathtaking diamond. The ring is valued at $7,500!

“We are ecstatic to share our upgraded store with our loyal guests and members of our community in Dallas,” said Robbins Brothers Dallas General Manager Valerie Spencer.  “We have had the honor of helping thousands of couples find their dream engagement ring and achieve perfect proposals since opening in 2006. We continue to serve them in celebrating all the other important milestones in life with beautiful jewelry options for every occasion. It’s truly an honor to serve the Dallas community.”

The grand re-opening coincided with the store’s exclusive Designer Event, which took place from May 9 – 15 and featured extra savings on designer favorites including Tacori, Verragio, A.Jaffe, Henri Daussi and more.
