Craving: MORE Scarlett Hearts Jewelry


I've got my younger sister Emma rather obsessed with Scarlett Hearts (just like I am!). She came into my room today with a little list of things she would like from the site, so I thought I'd put her list and my newest favourites together for the latest edition of 'Craving'!

We're going to branch-out this time and purchase jewelry that isn't just necklaces - I find myself constantly buying necklaces and then never having a nice bracelet to wear, whilst we both love the Turquoise Cross Necklace so who knows which one of us will buy it!

I'd love to hear your favourite pieces in the comments below and when we buy some (which we will inevitably do this week!) I'll be sure to review my faves! Be sure to also check out my summer Scarlett Hearts purchases HERE and my review of the 'Golden Snitch' Necklace HERE too!

Scarlett Hearts Golden Snitch Necklace (Review)


I've brought a few necklaces from online jewelry store 'Scarlett Hearts' this summer and after getting plenty of wear from all of them, I thought I'd review my favourite for you all - Scarlett Hearts' Golden Snitch Necklace!

Being a Harry Potter nerd, as soon as I saw this necklace, I knew I had to have it! The piece is a handmade mini 'Golden Snitch' with two golden wings which opens to store a special photo or something small inside! I got the necklace on a short chain as I own so much on long chains and it hangs and has lasted perfectly. The only thing I was a little disappointed with was that the wings weren't fixed in the position they appear in on the site, but I have really learnt to love them moving round and actually think it gives more movement and life to one of my favourite little props from the movies! I've had so many people ask if my necklace was from Harry Potter and its so exciting to be able to say yes and explain more about it!

The speed of service from the company was fantastic - delivered in only a few days in a cute little red bag to keep it in and room for a special something inside, it just confirms that its the little touches that designers add to their pieces which make them so fabulous!

For only £6, the Scarlett Hearts' Golden Snitch Necklace perfect for any Harry Potter fan - I'm going to be wearing it to the WB Studio Tour next weekend too, to show off my nerdiness!

Happy Birthday Katy and the Elsie Belle Book Lovers Locket


Today is my fabulous and gorgeous little sister Katy's thirteenth birthday! As a part of her gift, I purchased her the Elsie Belle Book Lovers Locket Necklace.

I brought it on a gold chain at the shortest length available so it sits a few inches below the collarbone. The book itself seems to be of a high quality, the distressing really adds to it and the heart is adorable. The space inside the locket is huge so I can't wait to see what she puts in there as a keepsake. The book is actually a lot larger and more of a statement necklace than I thought it was going to be but I think it adds to the charm!

I also really love the packaging - the intricate embossed detailing on the box really adds to the one-off unique quality that Elsie Belle jewelry exudes and the boxes themselves are fabulous to keep the necklace in (safe but in plain sight so you remember to wear it!).

I hope you love your present and Happy Birthday Katy!

Craving: Elsie Belle Ti Amo Tanto


I've been an admirer of Elsie Belle for a while now after seeing them profiled on fellow fashion blog Raindrops of Sapphire last year. Elsie Belle produce gorgeous, unique and fabulously feminine jewelry perfect for any fashionista at an affordable price - especially considering you can pretty much guarantee that none of your friends will be wearing the same jewelry as you!

I have loads of necklaces but delicate pendants like this are amongst my favourites and most regularly worn because they work with so many outfits. My favourite is the 'Ti Amo Tanto' Necklace which is so small and delicate but bold within an outfit (and in its message) - I've been admiring this particular necklace A LOT recently!

I've been visiting their website regularly over the past months, admiring the pieces and yesterday, despite my huge lack of money, took the plunge and purchased three necklaces. The 'Ti Amo Tanto' necklace for myself (and as a little message to a certain someone!) and a necklace each for my sisters birthdays (although I won't post the names of the pieces here in case they read this post!).

What do you think of the Ti Amo Tanto Necklace? Let me know in the comments!
