The VH Confidential: A Journey Through the Heart of Viviana Halil Jewelry

Viviana Halil Yves Bracelet

Hello Gorgeous!

I am Viv, founder and creative director of Viviana Halil Jewelry. Welcome to my little corner of the world—a corner where everyday is a day of luxury, elegance radiates, and timeless beauty never goes out of style. If you're here, then I know we already have something in common. You probably can relate to me in some form or another, a girl who likes to splurge on the little luxuries in life, finds beauty in the smallest details like being able to wear the right jewelry, to that perfect event that makes you feel that much more confident. Or how a pair of stiletto heels paired with that baggy distressed jean can make you feel like walking on air. At the end of the day it is the little things that make us feel beautiful that are the most meaningful. Whether it be an affirmation of self love, a kind compliment or the efforts we take to feel our best when we buy the bag, the jewelry or that toteme strappy heeled sandal that gives us that extra boost on those tough days.


So let's get cozy, sip on your favorite coffee (extra credit if it's in the cutest mug you own because let's be real - it tastes so much better that way), and let me share with you a little glimpse of the VH journey. I want to share how Viviana Halil Jewelry came to life, and trust me it is filled with ups and downs, inspiration, and passion.

A Note from me Viv: My Story, My Vision, and How It All Began

Ah, confession time: I am that girl. The one who loves romanticizing every small moment: from the first sip of coffee in the morning all the way to the golden hour light that makes everything feel like it's from a scene in a movie. And well it’s true, magic is mainly found in the details. I am the girl who is all about a perfectly curated wardrobe, a new pair of strappy-heeled sandals, and of course, the perfect piece of jewelry that just ties everything together.


And let me just say—I may always wear black and carry myself with an aura that feels focused ready to conquer, mysteriously captivating, a bit reserved and sometimes even introverted but above all of that, I am a girls girl, I adore everything girly. Jewelry, shoes, makeup, art, and can envision that perfect closet filled with that a collection of my favorite brands. I get lost in museums; I dream about traveling the world daily—long-haul flights, anyone?—and there's something so satisfying about discovering a cute little café or an amazing new restaurant that no one else knows about yet.


But let's be honest: We must acknowledge there's a lot of trial and error when it comes to discovering what really works with your style and personality. Building that wardrobe that resonates time after time. The wardrobe that you can go to with confidence knowing you always have something to wear and this always includes the perfect jewelry. With constant new trends it is easy to get lost and eventually end up with a closet full of maybe’s that never become the it thing. Your girls night out wearing that little black dress, you have the perfect outfit sorted, and all you need is that one piece of jewelry to bring it all together. But what happens? You reach for those cute, affordable pieces you’ve bought over time, only to find tarnished smelly jewelry, or the earrings whose stones have fallen out, or—worst of all— my nightmare the one where at the end of the night you're left with days of healing from the metal sensitivities most of us have when wearing cheap jewelry. I somehow allowed this to happen way too many times justifying it was cheap jewelry but was it? I discovered it wasn’t I was actually paying way too much for a piece of metal that is also used to make water pipes? Yes sorry to burst your bubble this was also shocking to me, but this just fueled my passion.

From Inspiration to Creation: Introducing Viviana Halil

Let me take you back to the story of how this all came to be, starting with me. The girl who is obsessed with everything that feels beautiful and luxurious: jewelry, shoes, bags, views, art - all of it! But what I really love is the details, those little flashes of a moment that make life seem rather magical. Whether it's that perfect swipe of winged eyeliner or that 'click' sound when you snap on your favorite bracelet, in those moments, all is right in the world.


I often travel and as I was going through my jewelry collection, I realized something that got me thinking. The realization that I spent so much money on all of these cute pieces of jewelry—mostly impulse purchases of $20 here, $30 there, some a little more expensive—only to find out they never do last more than a couple of wears. For many reasons quality being one, trends changing another and me never truly liking it more than the one outfit or two.


And so, there I was, a little frustrated yet determined: I wanted jewelry that, first and foremost, didn't feel so over-the-top, not a trend or a fad, I wanted classic, I wanted the look of diamonds, pieces that allowed me the luxury feel of wearing it without the feeling of compromise. I didn't want to spend thousands on diamonds, because $30,000 on a bracelet meant a dream vacation in bora bora, nor would I settle for mediocre or cheap products. Under these circumstances, being a natural problem solver, someone who always thinks of the solution rather than dwell in the problem, it vicariously crossed my mind why not create my own collection? I mean, how hard could it be? It sounded like perfection. A collection that would combine timeless allure of diamonds and everyday luxury. And that is how VH Jewelry started, a thought and desire came to be the brand it is today.

How It All Started: From Frustration to Inspiration

Let me tell you, it wasn't an overnight success. The Viviana Halil Jewelry journey started with one of those dream-big moments, the ones where you are tucked in with your favorite scented candle on and, out of nowhere, come these wild inspirations that feel too great to resist. But, of course, it's never as simple as saying, "Hey, let's create a jewelry brand!" It started out as a passion project, something I daydreamed about while juggling all the other things life throws at you.


You know when you're shopping and that "perfect" Tennis necklace catches your eye, but the price tag makes you feel like you need to give up your whole paycheck? Or when you buy cute jewelry online, but by the time you've worn it a few times, stones are now missing or your skin turns green after an all day out with your girls or better yet, you realize you walked around with a green neck all day? Yeah, me. I realized that my money was going towards jewelry that was never meant to last. I found myself, very ironically, hunting for pieces that looked luxurious that wouldn't break the bank–and spoiler alert, those were hard to come by.


So, I thought, "Why not create the jewelry I've been searching for? " Something that looks like it's supposed to be in the window of the finest boutiques but doesn't come with a jaw-dropping price tag. I wanted to create pieces that would bring joy-like when you put on your favorite designer bag or slip into those killer heels you've been saving for a night out.


Jewelry that makes you feel like the feminine goddess that you are, confident like the world is your playground without having to sacrifice your shoe fund (priorities, right?). And let me tell you, I dove deep into this. I spent months (more like countless late nights) researching materials, learning about craftsmanship, and sketching out a plan and ideas until my hands were sore. I wanted everything to be perfect, from the quality of the stones to the way the metal felt against your skin. But nothing could be "just okay." It had to feel luxurious, it had to last, and more than anything, it had to make you feel like the best version of yourself every time you wore it.


It was a process—a lot of trial and error, a lot of second-guessing— tons of I fucked up moments but I kept going because I believed in the vision. Every piece I chose for the collection or designed felt like it had a story to tell, a little sparkle to add to someone’s life. I didn’t want to settle for anything less than perfection. And honestly, it was the most fun I’ve ever had (even with all the ups and downs). I have grown immensely from this process and would not change it for the world. This was personal for me. It was a mission greater than anything I ever knew possible yet somehow it became my true passion, and VH is something I hold dear to my heart.


I began to feel that it was time to stop dreaming and start doing; by late 2022, this girl with a dream started to make a plan a relentless pursuit just trying to find ways to bring this dream to life while working 12-16 hour days at her real job, nonetheless a company was formed, sample pieces were being created, the brand was evolving, and I was more than excited to bring everything to life. That's when Viviana Halil Jewelry was officially born! But let me tell you, the journey from idea to launch was filled with challenges, sleepless nights and there were many times when I wasn't even sure it would all pan out - the kind of times where you feel that maybe your dream is too big, that you're crazy for even trying. But every high, every low, was worth it. To see my vision unfold before my eyes was like watching a dream come to life. And the most incredible part? The day I saw you wearing my designs. That's the real magic - the moment it finally clicked in my mind that this wasn't a dream anymore. I officially had started living what I only imagined yet now somehow in between all the chaos had suddenly become my reality.


It was real, and it was beautiful.


So here we are, at the beginning of something amazing. And I can’t wait to take you along for the ride. ✨

Our Collection: Exclusivity in Every Detail

So, let’s talk about what makes the Viviana Halil Jewelry Collection so special because trust me, it’s not just another jewelry line—it’s a whole vibe. If you’re anything like me, you probably love pieces that can stand the test of time, right? I’m talking about those timeless classics like that tennis bracelet, or those classic round cut stud earrings, the ones you reach for day after day, the kind that make you feel effortlessly chic whether you're running errands in your fave pair of jeans or dressing up for a girls' night out.


Let’s start with the heart of it all—my design philosophy. I’m not one to chase every trend that blows through (although, yes, I do love a good statement piece every now and then). I’m all about timeless, classic pieces that will never go out of style. Just like the color black. Something about it just makes me feel so timeless, sexy and elegant. So let's think about it, wouldn't it be perfection to invest in jewelry you’ll still love years from now? Without having to pay the price of diamonds. That’s the vibe I wanted to capture with VH—pieces you can wear over and over again, that effortlessly add the allure of diamonds and instantly elevate any outfit. It would take a skilled professional under a scope to identify the differences between a moissanite and a diamond. Not only that our Flawless Moissanite stones are not just any stone, they are always GRA certified and will always pass a diamond pen test. I can afford to buy diamonds at this point in my life but as we all have different priorities in life, I would much rather wearing The Alaia Bracelet while on my dream vacation through the deserts and high rises of dubai or the beaches of crystal blue waters in the Maldives. Now let's talk about some of my favorites.

The Yves Bracelet is my personal obsession, and when you see it, you’ll know why. It’s this stunning blend of luxury and modern sophistication. With marquis cuts that blend seamlessly to the round cuts of Flawless Moissanite stones all hand selected for their brilliance, sparkling like a halo of stars around your wrist. We set it in pure sterling silver because, let’s be real, nothing compares to the glow of a fine metal against your skin. It’s one of those pieces that can easily elevate any look, whether you’re heading to brunch with your girls or enjoying a fancy night out. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve worn this with a pair of my favorite sweatpants, t-shirt and sneakers as I am making my way through the airport crowds knowing it not only made me feel luxurious and expensive but noticed how my look was instantly elevated to a whole other vibe, or when I paired it with that simple black dress and felt so chic and put together.

Then there’s The Tennis Bracelet —literally the definition of luxury you can wear every single day. It’s crafted using flawless moissanite stones, each one hand-selected for that next-level sparkle. What I love about this bracelet (besides the way it catches the light from every angle) is its versatility. Whether you pair it with The Yves Bracelet for a glam look or wear it solo for something more minimal, it always feels just right. The classic setting is sophisticated yet feminine, it almost feels like wearing a little piece of heaven on your wrist. And since it’s made with pure sterling silver, it’s strong, durable, and, most importantly, gives you that luxe feel without breaking the bank.

When I was creating this collection, I made sure that only the finest materials were used. None of that stainless steel or gold toned cheap brass that turns your skin green after a few wears—because no one needs that, right? We use pure sterling silver, 10k-18k solid gold, and on some pieces, we’ve got premium gold-plating over sterling silver. It's all about giving you the luxury you deserve without the luxury price tag.


Now, let’s talk about the stones—because, babe, I’m all about the look of diamonds. Moissanite is the star of the show in many of our pieces, and for good reason. It’s nearly as hard as diamonds and sparkles even more, if you can believe it. Are diamonds even real at this point? We also use lab-grown sapphires and premium graded zirconia stones for that extra touch of brilliance. Whether you're catching rays in the sun or twinkling under evening lights, our pieces are designed to make you feel feminine, confident, and so luxe, even if it's just a casual Tuesday.


And I have to say, I’m obsessed with how our stones catch the light. We don't hand select these for fun, We are serious when it comes to perfection. You know when you’re having a low-key day, but then you catch a glimpse of your jewelry sparkling, and suddenly you feel a little more glamorous? Like everything in that moment is bliss. That’s the magic of VH jewelry. And you will experience this bliss quiet often. You can throw on one of our necklaces like The Nazari Necklace with your everyday outfit, and like the snap of my fingers, instant elevation. It's like having a little bit of luxury with you all the time, whether you're at the office, grabbing coffee, or hitting the town. These pieces are designed to make you feel like the queen you are—because let’s be real, every girl deserves luxury everyday. You will find yourself caring for your VH collection just as if they were diamonds. The VH Collection is way to beautiful you wont resist the desire to treat it as luxury.


So whether you’re looking for a piece to add to your everyday luxury collection or you just want to treat yourself to something beautiful (because why not?), the Viviana Halil collection has something for you. From classic studs and stunning bracelets to intricate rings and luxury necklaces, we’ve got you covered in sparkle, babe.


Each piece is thoughtfully designed to be as unique and multifaceted as you are, and I can’t wait to see you shine in them. 

Living the VH Lifestyle: Femininity, Exclusivity & Luxury

Now, let’s talk about the VH lifestyle because, trust me, it’s so much more than just jewelry—it’s about embracing luxury in every part of your life. And when I say "luxury," I’m not just talking about draping yourself in diamonds (though, let’s be real, that’s definitely part of the fun). It’s about a whole vibe, a mindset, and a way of living that makes you feel like you’re absolutely glowing from the inside out.


You know that feeling when you’re about to take off on that amazing trip with a carefully planned out itinerary, and the excitement is bubbling inside you? Yeah, that’s the vibe of the VH girl . We’re the ones who love to enjoy everyday luxury from that perfect espresso, or cute heart latte. We love our travels, we get butterflies the moment the plane takes off because we’re headed somewhere incredible—whether it’s a weekend getaway with the girls or a dreamy escape to a far-off place. The type of trips where you pack your best outfits, have a perfectly curated playlist, and, of course, your favorite jewelry to match each look. The VH Collection was inspired by all of this, specially my travels when I would spend the most money on these cheap jewelry pieces.


It’s not just about big, glamorous moments either. Sometimes, it’s as simple as dressing up for a brunch date with your besties, wearing your favorite pair of jeans, and adding a little sparkle with a VH necklace or eternity ring. It’s that feeling of confidence you get when you know you’re looking fabulous, even if it’s just a casual self-love Saturday. Because we can all agree, there’s nothing quite like walking into a café with your girls, each of you looking hotter than a summer's day, feeling like the world is your runway.

And speaking of luxury, what does it really mean? For me, it’s not just about the glitzy things (though I’m always down for elevated sparkle ). Luxury is a state of mind—it’s the energy you carry with you, that little extra spark that makes you feel unstoppable. It’s when you treat yourself to the things that make you feel special, whether that’s a stunning piece of jewelry, a glass of bubbly on a random Wednesday, or slipping into your favorite outfit that makes you feel like you. It’s not about waiting for special occasions—it’s about making every moment feel special.


Honestly, we all have those days where life feels a little overwhelming. But, babe, let me tell you, when you put on something that makes you feel beautiful—whether it’s a pair of favorite heels, a bold red lip, or that perfect pair of VH Vienna Stud Earrings —it changes everything. You walk a little taller, smile a little brighter, and feel like you can conquer the world. That’s the power of luxury—it’s not just about how you look on the outside, but how it makes you feel on the inside.


That’s exactly why I created VH Jewelry. I wanted to create a collection of pieces that make you feel like the best version of yourself, no matter where you are or what you’re doing. Whether you're sipping champagne in Paris, toasting to the good life, or simply heading into work on a Monday morning, I want you to feel like you’re embracing life’s little luxuries. You deserve to feel like the queen you are, every single day.


The VH girl is someone who knows the importance of balance. We love to indulge in life’s finer things, but we also know how to keep it real. Maybe it’s treating yourself to a quiet night in with a face mask and your favorite podcast after a long day. Or maybe it’s going all out for a night on the town, wearing your stunning VH necklace that catches every glimmer of light. Whatever your version of luxury looks like, it’s about you—about what makes you feel alive, glamorous, and so you.


When I’m designing pieces, I’m thinking of you. I’m imagining how you’ll feel slipping on a gorgeous pair of VH Amira earrings or draping one of our pendant necklaces around your neck before a big night out. I’m picturing how these pieces will become part of your story—how you’ll wear them on first dates, big promotions, spontaneous adventures, or those beautiful little moments of self-love. 💖


Because at the end of the day, luxury is more than just the jewelry—it’s how you live, how you carry yourself, and how you show up in the world. It’s that inner glow that comes from knowing you’re treating yourself to something beautiful, something that makes you feel unstoppable. And that’s exactly what Viviana Halil Jewelry is here to celebrate: you. The woman who loves to shine, whether she’s sipping mimosas with her girls or slaying the day-to-day.


So, what are you waiting for? Dive into the VH lifestyle, and let yourself sparkle from the inside out. You deserve nothing less.
