18 Luxurious Southern FINDS: Heirloom Jewelry, Handcrafted Leather & Statement Art
These Swoon-worthy luxe FINDS from Southern retailers are eye candy for your home, closet, and jewelry box.
Southern luxury is about a little polish, a little personality, and pieces that know exactly how to make an entrance. From heirloom-worthy jewelry and artful accessories to statement-making dresses, tabletop treasures, and bar-cart brilliance, these luxe FINDS bring the drama in all the right ways.
CLOTHING
Matching set
This matching Ulla Johnson set is what happens when bohemian romance gets a proper Southern makeover. Cut in satin-coated poplin, its starring feature is the sweeping botanical print by Art Brut artist Anna Zemánko. Find both the top ($690) and skirt ($690) at Ann Mashburn.
Crochet cardigan
In a shade called “Whipped Butter” — frankly, the most fun name a cardigan could ask for — this hand-crocheted shirt is the kind of layer that makes transitional dressing more joyful. With crochet-covered buttons, a classic collar, and scalloped flounce sleeves, it brings a little French-market romance to everything from sundresses to denim. Purchase it for $560 at Nette.
Embroidered dress
This dress brings Texas heritage to your garden party, pairing Lucchese craftsmanship with Lela Rose’s polished, feminine eye. Cut in luxe linen with a fitted waist, full A-line skirt, and tulip embroidery inspired by florals and mid-century needlepoint, it’s quintessential western romance. Find it for $1,690 at Lucchese.
SHOES & ACCESSORIES
Americana boots
Made to celebrate America’s bicentennial, these cowgirl boots are a star-spangled salute with serious style: handcrafted, patriotic, and polished enough for events well beyond July Fourth. Pre-order them for $1,950 at Petite Paloma.
Bucket bag
This bucket purse in emerald lizard is a jewel box of a bag — structured, striking, and exotic enough to make even the most neutral outfits pop. Plus, the liner features custom artwork by Beth Lambert of New Orleans. Purchase it for $575 at Bene.
Silk scarf
Charleston-based Carson & Co.’s patchwork silk scarf is part accessory, part art piece, and somehow plays nicely with nearly everything in the closet. Sizes range from 35- to 53-inch squares ($345 to $600) at Carson & Co.
Hand-embroidered clutch
Numbered, limited-edition, and perfectly timed for the Year of the Horse, this hand-embroidered, book-style clutch says “equestrian chic” without ever setting foot near a stable. Find it for $2,005 at Capitol.
JEWELRY
Sapphire ring
This design by Jane Pope is inspired by a sapphire-and-diamond anniversary ring gifted to her mother, originally dreamed up and sketched on a napkin in New York’s diamond district. The ‘Mimi’ ring is now reimagined for the next generation. Shop it for $15,098 at Jane Pope Jewelry.
Pendant necklace
This pendant necklace is a statement piece featuring hand-cut blue lace agate and purple chalcedony, diamond accents, and a bright orange sapphire at the center. Strung on a 14-karat gold diamond-cut cable chain, it’s bold, artful, and seriously playful. Shop it for $13,420 at Campbell + Charlotte.
Diamond & enamel bangle
With a pop of rich red enamel and diamond sparkle, this bangle is wrist candy that makes even a white tee feel like an occasion. Find it for $6,000 at Theodosia Jewelry.
Bronze earrings
Dallas-based Julie Cohn’s bronze earrings strike that rare balance between earthy and elegant — sculptural, a little primitive, and thoroughly modern. Find this pair for $695 at Julie Cohn Design.
Animal-inspired bracelet
This bracelet has bite in the best possible way: a 14-karat gold wraparound design inspired by the powerful guardian of the Nile. With engraved tail details and a clever crocodile-mouth clasp set with emerald eyes, it channels ancient symbolism, has a bit of New Orleans edge, and offers a cocktail-hour conversation starter. Shop it for $6,250 at Porter Lyons.
BEAUTY
Skin-soothing serum
This serum is a little luxury for skin that’s had enough. It’s calming, hydrating, and designed to bring down inflammation and environmental stress. Consider it the skincare equivalent of a deep breath, a cool compress, and someone saying, “Don’t worry, I’ve got this.” Find a bottle for $275 at Joanna Czech.
Miracle moisturizer
The Rich Cream is exactly what it sounds like: a plush, high-performance hydrator designed to plump, smooth, and soften while helping address the look of sun damage and dark spots. In other words, it earns prime real estate on your vanity. Find a 50-ml bottle for $315 at Artisan.
HOME & TABLETOP
Lacquered table
This cocktail table quietly steals the scene with its sleek, lacquered silhouette and statement-making deep-blue hue. Find it for $2,950 at Blue Print.
Mahjong kit
This kit from Oh My Mahjong turns game night into a full-blown social season. With coordinated storage and all the polished pieces needed for play, it’s a luxe set made for cozy gatherings and special celebrations – and anyone who believes the table should look as good as the scorecard. It’s available in multiple patterns for $925 at Charlotte’s.
Playful servingware
These vintage green fish ceramics are the freshest catch. It’s a set of 12 made for seaside bites, crudo, fish tacos, and anyone who believes dinnerware should have a sense of whimsy. The set is $2,998 at Houses & Parties.
Resin ice bucket
This bar-cart jewelry has a job to do. The ice bucket is glossy, sculptural, and made from 100% polished resin. Shop it for $490 at Odd McLean.
