Wishlist | My Top Work Jewellery Picks

| Charmnest Bright Pink Statement Necklace | Forever21 Wish, Love Dream Necklace Set | 

| Forever21 Classic Bow Cuff | Delilah Dust Silver Infinity Chain Bracelet | H&M 2 Pack Turquoise Rings | 

| Tresor Paris Tassilly Earrings | New Look Black, Grey & Polka Dot Snag Free Hair Ties |

At my new job I have to wear all black as my uniform so to add that pop of colour I have to do it through jewellery and accessories. So I thought I would show you kind of a wishlist of a couple of items I've come across which would be perfect for me at work.

First is this bright pink statement necklace from Charmnest. Charmnest is a newer jewellery site which I have already purchased off and loved the things I received. This bright pink necklace is perfect as I love pink and it will help accessorize a plain black dress perfectly.

The next two items are from Forever21. I've only ever ordered from Forever21 once and that was for holiday bits but I always hear such amazing things about their jewellery. I chose this cute necklace which spells out Wish, Love & Dream which is not only cute but very inspirational. And then I found this cute cuff which has a gold bow on it and who doesn't love bows right?

Then this next item I've been eyeing up for some time. If I wear a bracelet it's usually a chunky variety or bangles so when I came across this dainty infinity bracelet from Delilah Dust I knew I had to have it. I think it's such a nice idea and think it gives off a nice message.

For rings I only ever constantly wear one and I got it in Greece in 2008 when I went on holiday with a friend. On nights out I love to wear big statement rings but obviously this isn't convenient for work. So to come to some mutual ground I found this 2 Pack of turquoise rings from H&M. They are so nice and are great to wear together or separately  One is a turquoise band and the other is decorated with a gold chain.

For earrings I like to stay quite small. I love big out there earrings but we aren't allowed to wear them at work so I opt for something glitzy instead. I love Tresor Paris jewellery and do already own a pair of their earrings so I've included the same pair but in a different colour.

Finally a hair product, and you may already be aware of these as they seem to be everywhere. These snag free hair bands from New Look seem to be the hit product at the moment. I know there is a brand called Popband which is where I've seen most people talking about these but they are hairbands that claim not to leave a kink in your hair and come in some adorable patterns/shades which you can wear on your wrist as a bracelet. Genius idea!

So there you have it, my top picks of jewellery for work. Let me know if you have any ideas for what I can jazz up a plain black outfit with by leaving a comment below.

Introducing Charmnest

I was contacted by the lovely Greta and she informed me that she had started her own jewellery site 'Charmnest' where she was selling cheap but lovely costume jewellery. I love jewellery pieces as a great way to accessorize an outfit so I was excited to check out the site to see what was to offer. I only bought two pieces and wished I had bought more but I was too excited and just wanted to pick something to receive it (looking back at this it sounds so stupid!). But don't fear as when I get paid I will most definitely be ordering some more lovely pieces!

It's an unusual design and it's pink, what is there not to like about this little number! I don't own anything at all like this and don't think I've seen anything similar in any shops as of late. And to top it all of at only £2 you just simply can't say no. This is also available in a almost lime green colour.

This little baby is the hardest thing to photograph to show all it's goodness. I'm afraid my photo doesn't do it any justice but from what you can see of it its a cute little arrow with black gems in it. It just slips on to my wrist but isn't too big that it slips right back off. And again at such a bargain price of £3.50 is amazing!

I thought i'd show you some other bits I hope to order soon...

1. Angel Wings Necklace £6.50 | 2. Chunky Ring £3.50 |

3. Funky Colourful Statement Necklace £6 | 4. V Necklace £4

And as a added bonus until the end of the month (which isn't long!!) Greta is very kindly offering bloggers a 20% discount using the code BLOGGER20.

John Greed Jewellery's Valentine’s Day Blogger Challenge

After the success of their Pandora Blogger Challenge John Greed Jewellery has decided to do another Blogger Challenge, this time around Valentine's Day and on everything on their site. 1 Blogger will win the chance to win every jewellery item they wish for for Valentine's Day. So what do we have to do?

To qualify to win just create a mood board with all your favourite pieces of jewellery from the site that you would love to get for Valentine's Day up to the value of £250. You must have a minimum of 4 items. So onto my selection...

1. Thomas Sabo Silver Fine Chain Charm Carrier Bracelet £35

The reason I picked this comes with a little story. A couple of years ago I really wanted a Pandora bracelet but could never afford one. Then after a while I realized how many people had them and for some reason this completely turned me off them. Then I got a Thomas Sabo bracelet for my 21st from my sister. It felt unique because not a lot of people I know own or have even heard of the brand. This bracelet is different to the one I own so it will be nice to have it.

2. Pandora Silver and Grey Moonstone Ring £40

So the reason behind this is I only own one nice quality ring which I wear all the time. I bought it for myself from Greece way back in 2008 whilst on holiday. Apart from cheap statement rings from Primark I don't own anything else. After browsing the rings I came across the Pandora ones. I've never seen a lot of people wearing the Pandora rings as obviously they are well known for their bracelets. But I'm into darker jewellery and loved the stone in this specific ring.

3. Pandora Silver and White Quartzite Cabochon Earrings £25

I promise not everything is Pandora! But again like the Pandora ring I don't own a massive amount of earrings. This is most down to the fact that any cheap earrings that aren't silver irritate my ears and they end up getting infected... I know disgusting right! So I own a pair of Tresor Paris earrings but find I get bored of them if I wear them everyday. I'm hopefully going to buy some more in different colours soon. So I spotted these cute little silver and white earrings and would most definitely like to have these in my collection.

4. Thomas Sabo Silver Me, Myself and I Charm £30

To go with my Charm bracelet I picked out I chose this and one other charm. This charm speaks volumes to me as I suffer majorly from confidence. So when I look at this charm it kinda tells me that it's ok to be me, myself and I! I know this means differently to others, almost being alone I guess but I choose to use it as a positive meaning.

5. Thomas Sabo Silver Clear Cubic Zirconia Open Heart Pendant £86

I thought I'd complete the package with a necklace. And to go with the whole Valentine's theme of course I picked a heart pendant. I currently wear a heart necklace that my mum and dad got for my for my 16th birthday from Argos (oh man that was way back in 2006 a whole 7 years ago!!). So of course it's sentimental to me but I would like to have a different option.

6. Pilgrim Classic Rose Gold Plated Valentine Stud Earrings £7

As I said earlier I can only really wear silver earrings long term as they don't irritate and infect my ears but I couldn't pass up these cuties. And at such a bargain price who would pass them up. Rose Gold being the big thing right now especially with the infamous Rose Gold Michael Kors Watch I think these would look cute for a day out.

7. Thomas Sabo Silver and Synthetic Ruby July Birthstone Charm £26

This is the other charm I chose to go with the bracelet and the simple reason I chose this was I love birthstones and anything that represents the month I was born. I love that my birthstone is Ruby!

I hope you like my choices, I thought I would struggle to write my reasons like I normally do but I think I managed to do alright!
The competition ends tomorrow (14th February) so if you haven't already entered quickly go check out the rules HERE and get to it!!

What would you like for Valentine's Day?
