Congratulations!
Ready to break new ground? Pioneering jewellery designers Tatty Devine turn ten this year, and they’re taking inspiration from women who set the world alight.
Are you a flapper winning the vote in pearls and crystals, a cowgirl breaking wild horses in a western shirt and gingham neckerchief, or a lady striding defiantly into the gentlemen’s club with a pipe and pocket watch?
Tatty Devine’s inventive use of acrylic, as usual, breaks new territories in jewellery design. And when you’re done breaking world records and riding wild mustangs, dress up in opulent crystal deco with Tatty Devine’s sterling silver and Swarovski pearl and crystal jewellery.
Celebrate it all with a Firework Display Necklace, a Tatty Devine explosion of multicoloured Swarovski crystals to light up any outfit. And, this autumn, falling leaves in curving glitter are based on the iconic plane trees of London, Tatty Devine’s home city. More leaves, wooden this time, are inspired by the sturdy English oak as Tatty Devine celebrate their British roots.
Decadent times indeed.

I have been searching the globe for some amazing sparkles that would be in everyone’s price range. Well, NOT everyone, but most girls at least. We all know I have a slight obsession with Bottega Veneta and Phillippe Audibert. However, these days one just can’t drop couple of K’s on a necklace. So, girl needs to downsize her spending..where does she go? Well, right here at www.accessoriesonline.co.uk. No other place for it. The thing about jewels, you need to make it your own, work it and wear it proud. I am in love with statement pieces, I am all about shoes most days, but seeing a girl on the tube wearing fantastic jewels makes me day.
Here are my top three necklaces on www.accessoriesonline.co.uk. As we all know, it’s almost the season for turtlenecks. YEAY! There is nothing more amazing than sleeveless turtleneck and a great statement necklace over it. Wear them proud, head up high, hair in a chignon and work it!
Style Crush #1
Jackie Brazil, Indiana Jones Chunky Mixed Bead Necklace in Purple
Jackie Brazil Indiana Jones Chunky Mixed Bead Necklace in Purple, £64.95
OMG! Like seriously in love with this piece. Purple is like my biggest colour crush this fall. It’s lovely to wear greys and blacks once the wind hits in. However, you must have something that will make the entire outfit POP! Plus anyone can wear purple! Result!
Am I right?
Style Crush #2
Kenneth Jay Lane Grey Pearl Necklace
Kenneth Jay Lane Grey Pearl Necklace, £36.95
Pearls have a bad rep and I am personally going to take charge and bring them back. KJL has been on my list of desires for ages and very happy to see that there is something little more affordable in their range as well. Just don’t team them up with a pleated skirt and beehive and you will be just fine.
The shinyish grey pearls against either black or dark grey..my fashion heaven right there. BINGO!
Style Crush #3
Alex Monroe 22kt Gold Plated Baby Bee Necklace
Alex Monroe 22k Gold Plated Baby Bee Necklace, £104.95
I very nearly fainted as I saw this. Far too cute for my liking. I would wear this. I may have to order one. Is there anything cuter than baby bee? No, I don’t think so. Hmmm. Maybe a piglet, but I rather hang bees off my neck than piglets. OINK!

We caught up with Nicola Gewirtz, creator and designer of Lola Rose jewellery to ask her a few questions…
What was it that made you become a jewellery designer?
I had a job as a PA (not a very good one though) and was looking for a new career. A friend bought me a bracelet for my birthday, I loved it but thought I could make something better myself, so I bought some semi precious beads and cord and started stringing it all together! That was 10 years ago now.
What inspires you when you create new pieces?
Travel, museums and galleries but most of all my customers who give me amazing feedback. I want to make jewellery that makes women feel good about themselves.
What’s your favourite item of Lola Rose jewellery?
My tumble bracelets (Alfie and Cassidy) as these are the first items I designed and are still going strong.
What pieces do you wear yourself?
I’m not super organsised so tend to throw something on that I pick up quickly from the dressing table when rushing out of the house. I do always have a Lola Rose ring on and practically live in one of our gorgeous scarves.
Who is a typical customer?
Lola Rose customers tend to be stylish, independent women who like to have fun and experiment with bold, colourful pieces of jewellery.
Sonia Ring in Dark Teal Quartzite
What’s been your proudest moment?
On a non work note it has to be the birth of my gorgeous son Freddie!
What’s your favourite film?
Lion King – makes me cry every time!
Food?
Sushi.
Where’s your favourite place in the world?
In the bathroom at bathtime with Freddie!
If you were stranded on a desert island, what three items would you take with you?
A really good moisturizer, family photos and some string so if I got bored I could continue to make jewellery with shells I’ve found on the beach!
As the arrival of our Jacey Withers jewellery collection gets closer, I thought I’d give you a little taster of the AW10 collection.
Mythology, elements of the supernatural and the magic of the animal kingdom inspire Jacey’s unique signature style. For AW10 he was particularly inspired by the the spirit of North American legend and the concept of the hunter and the hunted. In this exciting new range we encounter the elements and experience the call of the wild.

For AW10 we will also be stocking some of Jacey’s sell out pieces from previous collections including the stunning stingray necklace, fox bracelet and cutlass necklace.
Jacey Withers’ ethereal jewellery is bold in design with a highly sophisticated use of colourful semi-precious stones. Withers’ unusual work has won him international acclaim, a high profile customer base and features in publications including Vogue, Italian Vogue and Elle.
