Shell Jewellery

Hey Barbie. Hi Ariel. 2023 had two box office bombshells ruling the waves and inspiring a fresh trend of shell and ocean-themed pieces. From cool sea glass jewellery to pop-colour shells, Margot Robbie and Halle Bailey have brought this look from the ocean floor all the way to our seashores. Water-coloured jewels like sapphires and emeralds are contrasted with dyed gemstones for a bold splash of colour. Delicate sea motifs clash beautifully with kitsch pieces in this trend.

Twisted silver hoops

Jumbo Hoop Earrings

Y2K has made a comeback, and it’s bringing back low-rise jeans, fur-trimmed boots, and even better, jumbo hoop earrings. If these hoops don’t make a serious statement, you’re not doing this retro trend justice. To level up the Y2K nostalgia, choose hoop earrings with unmissable logos or a not-so-subtle encrusting of diamantes.

Letter Necklaces

If you want to know what’s in, Hailey Bieber’s always where it’s at and right now she’s rocking her letter jewellery. From bedazzled B’s to the monogrammed initials of hubby Justin Bieber, this it-girl has made her decision. Forget wearing your heart on your sleeve, get the message on your chest with monogram jewellery. Have a bit more to say? Motto jewellery lets you show off your love and wisdom to the world with catchy affirmations.

Pearl necklace

Pearls on Pearls

Pearls never go out of style, but they were looking mighty fine and fresh during 2024’s Paris Fashion Week. Instead of minimalist luxury, layers of pearls were stacked to complete monochromatic decadence by top designers Sixdo and Versace. Styled with uniformity, pearl strands can be grouped or layered with yellow gold to bring a dash of colour to your look.

Signet Rings

2023 brought back coin and medallion necklaces, but 2024 is clearing the way for the signet ring’s mighty return. Stacked alongside solid metal bands and intricate animal designs, signet rings are having their biggest moment since gold maximalism took over in the 70’s. From Caesar to Chalamet, these rings are statements for a reason. Engrave with your initials, choose an elaborate seal, or set your ring off with the perfect gemstone. No one will forget shaking your hand.

Choker

Chokers

From popular princess Vanessa Kirby to acting royalty Uma Thurman, the choker necklace is back on the red carpet and looking more fabulous than ever. Simple fabric chokers paired with sparkling brooches add classic flair, while bejewelled necklaces capture all the paps’ attention. Wear it alone or add it to your necklace stack.

Gold cuff

Cuff Bracelets

The perfect power accessory? A cuff bracelet. It will instantly elevate your OOTD to the next level, whether you’re rocking casual streetwear or channelling your inner glam queen. Sleek and bold, or chunky and unmissable, cuff bracelets are an essential this season (and the next).

Art Deco ring

Art Deco Designs

For all the glitz and glamour, Art Deco jewellery is always on point. This modern revival takes cues from the 80s when gold maximalism reigned supreme. Think bold, extravagant pieces, channelling the opulence of the roaring 20s. Geometric designs, intricate motifs, old Hollywood glamour – drip yellow gold from head to toe. Pair chunky gold necklaces with daring earrings. Or rock vintage vibes with retro-inspired retro-inspired engagement ring.

Anklets

Whether you're hitting the beach or city streets, anklets are the perfect accessory to elevate your style and show off your summer-ready feet. Anklets are already taking over the runways, from Simone Rocha’s pearl designs to Fendi’s modern gold bands. From delicate chains, colourful beads and diamonds, to gold or silver - we've got you covered.
