Gold and Gingham

Vintage gold - a neck full of talismans

Green Molly Goddard gingham

 And scruffy trainers made for walking in and out of town for lunch with friends

Bling

Shell Shocked

 This beautiful shell charm bought all the way back from a market in Budapest is the latest addition to my jewellery collection and hasn't left my neck since receiving it.

Seeing Double

 

I don't really know that much about Frida Kahlo but seem to have quite a lot of Frida inspired trinkets, etc. I know she had great clothes and girl power though.

18th Jewels

 I have recently rediscovered these lovely Alex Monroe pieces that I was given for my 18th birthday... Which doesn't feel as long ago as it was! Monroe has truly hit the big time since.

Window Shopping

These prayer beads are a new addition to a fabric shop on Uxbridge Road, which is also opposite a Mosque. There are so many great variations. I also really like this necklace/collar from the same place, but I'd definitely look like a massive jerk wearing it.

One Off/Jessie Harris Collaboration

This week marks an exciting development for One Off with the launch of our first ever collaboration. 

Jessie Harris is a jeweller who lives and works in North London. After coming across her simple but intricate, delicate but heavy handmade jewellery, we knew we wanted to get Jessie on board.

Jessie has produced a beautiful and exclusive range for One Off, working alongside our aesthetic carefully and producing simple pieces that really are unique.

These little brass crystal bracelets are strung on silk cord and will look lovely on any wrist this autumn. A great gift - if you're not treating yourself!

I love these sterling silver rings, and they are my favourite pieces in this little capsule collection. I like how they are slightly unfinished looking - not too shiny and polished. Jessie made them by hand soldering silver wire, making each ring different to the next.

 Ideally I would wear two of these silver rings together, like this:

But they also look lovely alone or stacked alongside your own ring collection. Snap one up while they're still available.

One thing I like about the autumn and winter is the chance to wear my bulging big jumper collection. But there is something a bit deflating sometimes about covering up a really nice outfit with chunky knots of wool. This necklace is just the thing to liven your outfit back up, with a chunky antique rolo chain and silver plated geometric pendant.

Time for you to weigh in this Autumn with your own One Off/Jessie Harris pieces.

Have a look here for more.

An Unlikely Couple

Frida Kahlo and Tutankhamun hanging out together on my necklace today.

One Off is about to launch its very own exclusive jewellery collection, exciting! Stay tuned for more.

Dee's Heart

Really love this heart and key clasp on Dee's necklace, and was reminded today of a pair of earrings nowhere near as nice that I bought months and months ago on Brick Lane... Must remember to try and dig them out.

Great Hallmarks

On Mum's silver necklace

Pope

Also in Devon, is Louise's, the shop where I bought my silver I Love You spinner for a pound in November. This Pope coin (not sure which Pope) definitely isn't silver, but its pretty great. I like it on the same chain with its other Dulverton purchase.
