I have just been on the river island website and noticed that they have brought out some different articles of jewellery. There is a ziconia teddy bear and a ziconia padlock and key ranging from £7.00 upwards.
I have a really big thing for stud earrings at the moment wether they be pearls, sparkly of shapes i am bored of the long heavy earrings and am loving the fact that i can’t feel them swinging from side to side. The best part is they are cheap but i dont mind if i break them or a stone falls out or i loose one cos i can afford to replace them…

The largest robbery on a jewellery store in Paris, Harry Winston, was taken place around 5.30pm on Thursday 04th December by a group of four men who disguised themselves as women wearing wigs, makeup and dresses.

Police put the estimated total value of the haul at €80m (£70m), making it by far the largest jewel robbery carried out in France. “This is certainly a record,” said Doron Levy, a spokesman for the French union of jewellers. “It exceeds anything we’ve seen here going back years.”

The robbers carried out a quick tour of the boutique, stuffing diamond rings, necklaces, broaches and luxury watches into bags before taking off. Appearing to have knowledge of the layout of the store, they knew the location of supposedly top-secret storage boxes and referred to staff by their first names. Within minutes, the shop was nearly empty, and the robbers had sped off.

This has been dubbed by the French Police as the “steel of the century”

This store are specialists in so-called “ultra-luxe” jewellery, and the American store is a hot spot for international celebrities and, has a reputation for precious stones.

A lot of people are struggling buying presents for their loved ones this Christmas period and are resorting to getting Bad Credit Loans to ensure they can afford this but a lot of the jewellers have now lowered their prices because of the change of tax to 15% and also if you log onto the websites and a few of them have a discount voucher you can print off and use or have sales in their shops.

Goldsmiths even do a 0% interest free credit where you get up to 36 months interest free credit. Now that sounds like a deal and they actually have some half decent jewellery on their site.

I am trying to hint to my boyfriend to buy me some expensive jewellery but he is moaning about the cost but now I know about the special offers the shops have on at the moment I will give it another go and leave the vouchers around the house and he may take the hint, but you never know he is a man.

Personally I will be waiting until boxing-day to hit the shops when the sales start because they are meant to be absolutely awesome but I hate the mayhem.

DKNY have brought out a new jewellery range which can be seen at Goldsmiths.  I have had a look and a lot of it does not look anything special but there are some nice items to be seen for men and women but i think they could have done better.  I usually love their watches but they look plain and very childlike.  For a full  look at all the items visit Goldsmiths online or on the high street.

Marie Curie Cancer Care has teamed up with Laura Ashley to call for donations of unwanted jewellery to raise funds for the charity. If you have any unwanted silver, gold or costume jewellery including anything odd, snapped or broken donate them to the national scheme and the charity will benefit from a share of the proceeds. The scheme was inspired by the first ever donation to the charity in 1948 - a diamond engagement ring that raised £75 at auction (equivalent to around £5,762 today). This ends the end of this month so drop any dontations to Laura Ashley shops or Marie Curie Cancer Care Shops or visit www.mariecurie.org.uk.

As one of the UK’s leading contemporary jewellery designers, Mikey has created an for jewellery fro all girls since 1989. You are certainly sure to make a statement with Mikey’s eclectic collection of Necklaces, Bracelets, Earrings, Brooches, Body Jewellery, Rings, Belts and Bags.

The above earrings look like the have a jaw dropping price tag but believe it or not they only cost £18. There is only 1 problem that i find with the Mikey earrings and that is they are sometimes very heavy and hurt your ear lobes halfway through the evening.

Some of the famous faces you can see wearing the jewellery is Girls Aloud, Sienna Miller, Rachel Hunter, Cat Deeley, Paris Hilton, Peaches Geldoff, Lily Allan, Mylene Klass, Scarlett Johansson, Charlotte Church, Fearne Cotton and Dita Von Teese (only mentioning a few)..

Reading Grazia the other day I found this article on ‘Chandeliers for your ears’. Apparently they are Kate Moss’ favourite accessory at the moment, she clearly thinks they’re great and I have to agree with her. They are the autumn and winter season big thing. First popular in the 1920’s and 30’s they are back and everyone is jumping on the band wagon. You can pick up a pair from just about any high street store like Miss Selfridges or Accessorize for about £6 or websites like www.asos.com have some really nice ones too. However if you fancy spending a bit more why not try a pair from Harvey Nichols, you could probably get a pair for £500ish, ha ha!!

I got a pair last year and although they virtually rip my ear lobes out I have to agree with Grazia when they say it ‘ramps up your look several glamour notches’, it does make your overall look appear more glamorous and feel it too, especially if you’ve purchased a pair with a bit of sparkle to them.

Beads and charm bracelets are making a massive come back this summer and if your struggling on where to find the perfect items then look no further than Debenhams.

The store have just had some new arrivals, and in my opinion they look fab, great to team with a summer dress and sandals.

This charm bracelet is great for summer, with the sea blue colours its definitely a must have, it has also been reduced from £10.00 to £8.00, fantastic!!!!!

Check out more of the new arrivals available here.

Mixing fashion jewellery and designer jewellery is always the way to go.

Although picking up jewellery from your high street shops is great, there is nothing better and more satisfying than wearing a piece of designer jewellery which will make people green with envy.

I love these Chanel earrings which are available, they are sparkly and sophisticated with that glam edge!
