Sleek watches for him, and chic baubles for her
Author Jacqueline Detwiler

1. No one can accuse T. Anthony of stuffiness. In addition to fine suitcases and preppy totes, the latest collection from the venerable leather-goods purveyor includes such lighthearted offerings as this purple alligator clutch. Quick, everyone, to the limousine! $3,500 / www.tanthony.com
2. Though German jewelrymaker Wellendorff professes not to follow fashion fads — after 119 years, it likely can make its own — its tightly woven, multilayered 18-karat gold Brilliance of the Sun bracelet is the ideal accompaniment to this season’s bright dresses. $33,300 / www.wellendorff.com
3. Luxury jeweler Carelle has perfected the art of the statement bracelet: These gold bangles are thin enough to complement delicate wrists but, with a colossal amethyst or blue topaz ringed by diamonds, sparkly enough to launch a month’s worth of dinner conversations. $2,705 / www.carelle.com
