Waves, Not Football: 2026 Jewelry Gift Guide for Your Future Pepperdin

Pepperdine doesn't have a football team, but it has something almost nobody else does: a campus perched on the Malibu cliffs with the entire Pacific Ocean as a backdrop. Sunset at the Alumni Park cross overlooking the water is one of those views that never gets old, and it's a genuinely singular place to spend four years.

A Small, Well-Chosen Jewelry Set

Since Pepperdine's apparel line is still restocking, we built this one entirely around jewelry — pieces she'll wear constantly no matter what's in her closet. The Pepperdine Pearl Pendant Necklace, $45 is simple enough for daily wear. The Pepperdine Pearl Bow Medallion Earrings, $45 add a sweet, dressier detail. The Pepperdine Pavé Logo Studs, $55 are a subtle everyday nod to school spirit. And the Pepperdine Navy and Orange Dual Scrunchies, $35 round out the set with something easy and practical.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's a good graduation gift for a girl going to Pepperdine?

Jewelry and hair pieces are a smart choice — they pair with anything and don't depend on restock timing for apparel.

Does Pepperdine really not have a football team?

Correct — it's a smaller private school known more for its ocean views and academics, so the school spirit shows up in different, more understated ways.
