I'm not really one for fine jewellery but occasionally my mum buys me something from my favorite jewellery designer Alex Monroe. I only have two but they are my most loved possesions so I thought I would share. Both my mum and I have fallen in love with Mr Monroe after gazing into his counter in John Lewis. The bumble bee necklace is his most famous piece and has been seen on the likes of Emma Watson and Sienna Miller (oo err). The first necklace I received was the Baby Bee necklace for my GCSE results and getting into sixth form in 2011. The chain has an adjustable length and is made from the same 22ct gold plated silver as the bee pendant. This has to be my favorite necklace, I wear it almost everyday and it looks so sweet poking out from underneath a collar. The detail is amazing seeing as its so small (it even has little feet) and I've even convinced two of my friends to get one.
This is my most recent member to my collection which I received for my AS level results back in August. Its the Big Single Feather necklace and is made from the same yellow toned gold. The chain length is also the same as the bumble bee necklace. This necklace is quite dainty and looks best with an open neck, I only really wear this necklace on special occasions and plan to wear it to my prom in July. Again the detail is incredible and it feels very solid. It is also worth noting that when I snagged this necklace and the jump ring bent, Alex Monroe fixed it free of charge so I have endless praise for them.
Wow they are both so beautiful but I especially love the feather! I have a thing for feather things ahaa.

Both are lovely :) x
ReplyDeleteI've got a similar bumble bee necklace but it's just a cheap one from Topshop so nowhere near as nice as this! Both are so pretty, and such nice presents xx
