Jackie Brazil: Theresa May's New Necklace

26.3.19


Have you spotted the coloured resin necklace at the dispatch box? Or perhaps at a press conference? Well, Theresa May's newest necklace is by Jackie Brazil. 

A resin jewellery fashion brand hand made in Brazil, their jewellery is considered wearable art, with each item completely unique. The resin material can be recycled, making this a truly eco-friendly accessory.


The designs are fresh and contemporary, incorporating the colour and happiness of Brazil's lifestyle and attitude, with a focus on the colours, shapes and unique design. The brand have wholesaled their jewellery in the UK for over 15 years and their items can be found in places like Sahara London, Dulwich Picture Gallery, the Ashmolean Museum, WOW Hythe and Bijouled Harrogate.

As for the Prime Minister, she has worn the Riverstone Kandinsky mix necklace on a few occasions since the beginning of the year- adding a bit of optimistic colour to incredibly tense proceedings! May has worn the necklace at a press conference with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, for Prime Minister's Questions and to the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey. As the brand itself says, "[the necklace] matched her style perfectly, creating the right visual impact, sending a message of self-confidence and independence to a global audience." We couldn't agree more.

CAOS Fashion Inspiration

25.3.19


Hands up if you were a Sabrina the Teenage Witch fan in the Noughties? I loved the show, and would rush home from school every day to catch the latest episode or a re-run. I had the books and the magazine and make-up collection. Big fan!

So I was similarly excited to see the remake launch on Netflix late last year, and how it would put a new spin on a childhood favourite.



Predictably darker and spookier than the original, many of the key themes are visible. The bonds of friends and family, the battle of good vs. evil and staying true to oneself.



Whilst the storylines are pretty gripping, so is the awesome fashion sported by the cast. Aunt Zelda (brilliantly portrayed by Miranda Otto) is the sassiest dresser, and wins hands-down in the style stakes.

She has a serious 1940s old Hollywood vibe going on, and we see Zelda wear lots of black, navy and other dark hues in rich fabrics such as velvet, lace, fur and silk. Glamour knows no bounds, and Zelda accessories with chunky rings, statement necklaces and pearl earrings. She also has a snazzy cigarette holder and some seriously chic winged sunglasses.


One of my favourite looks is her oversized glamorous headband- the only way to dress your hair for bedtime. I've found a range of similar opulent headbands from Penelope Henderson, a British contemporary and bespoke luxe headwear supplier who has an awesome Instagram channel.  (My personal fave is the leopard! It looks awesome with a certain Women2Win bag.)



And turning to make-up, Otto wears items from Charlotte Tilbury for her role as Zelda. Her signature matte pink lipstick is the Secret Salma shade, and make-up artist Candice Stafford-Bridge using the Love Liberty shade for more darker situations. The iconic hair? All thanks to tried and tested hot rollers.

Whilst we can't all aspire to be as devilishly glamorous as Zelda in real life, you can get a smattering of her style with these witchy picks.
