About Nicole Bekerian:

Nicole Bekerian is the owner and founder of Simply the Best by Nicole. Her journey started in May 2021, when she decided to pursue a dream that she had since she was a little girl – starting her own business.

The decision to center her business around jewelry was an easy one – she has always loved how different pieces can hold significant meanings or add exactly what is needed to your favorite outfit. It’s so important to her that all of my clients have an opportunity to choose pieces they really love and create a memorable experience.

I’ve always been someone who appreciates the simple things in life and that translates to my jewelry designs. Simplicity can speak volumes.

Simply the Best was born after saying goodbye to my dog and best friend of 11 years, Gibbs – because he was – simply the best. I wanted a tangible reminder of him always with her, so she created the signature, a simple black onyx gemstone bracelet (which symbolizes protection and strength) with eleven spacers to signify his eleven years.

After that initial piece, she was excited about the future and wasted no time – she even wrote up a business plan while waiting for a flight home at the airport.

Once my flight landed, she kept dreaming and creating more jewelry.

She always knew it was very important to be inclusive with my sizing. Like clothes, jewelry needs a range of different sizes! She hated the experience of being worried about whether or not a bracelet may be too tight or wondering whether or not a necklace for a friend would be too short or too long on them because of “standard” sizing. With this in mind, all of her pieces are made in various sizes and can be made at any size upon request so that it fits perfectly.

Today, my business serves to share unique and meaningful designs with you and your loved ones. Because they believe you deserve – simply the best.
