"Founder and designer of HAVERHILL, Haverhill Leach says a common misconception about silver jewelry is that wearing these pieces a lot and often will lead to tarnish, but it's actually quite the opposite.
"Sterling silver is less apt to tarnish if you wear it often," she reveals. "The only time I would take my silver jewelry off is for swimming in chlorine or in the ocean."
She also recommends the jewelry be stored in a Ziploc, airtight bag, or container as "exposure to oxygen creates tarnish."
