Good Evening Everyone!
What a week it has been so far I have been so busy but it is making the week go so quickly. I cannot believe that it is Wednesday already tomorrow & we will be half way through the week. Doesn't seem at all possible. Does anyone else feel like that?
I also collect my new glasses on Sunday which I am looking forward to. I am hoping they will ease my headaches. Plus they are so lovely! I can't wait to wear them.
As you may all know here in the UK it is Mothering Sunday, this Sunday (26th). If your mothers are anything like mine they can be so hard to buy for. Which can make things hard work. But I do feel like you really cannot go wrong with jewellery pieces. There are some lovely pieces out there but I do like delicate pieces. Whether it be for myself or for a gift for others.
I recently come across a brand called Kaytie Wu.
Kaytie Wu relaunched in 2015 by a UK jewellery designer. Kayte happens to have a vast experience in jewellery & fashion & has created an amazing contemporary brand. But not only that she is also an independent woman who has created her own business & succeeded in it i believe. The pieces from their collections are beautiful. They are minimalist, delicate & unique. The collections are presented in fine gold or silver plating with use of delicate Austrian crystals. There is a sister brand to Kaytie Wu also: Kaytie Kaytie Wu. This brand also follows in the same style of designs of Kaytie Wu however unique shapes & a flora series has also been incorporated. Plus also pieces also include sterling silver & CZ stones.
I fell in love with the Kaytie Kaytie Wu flora collection. The pieces were so beautiful. As the name states the collection has a floral design based around it. The collection comprises of stud earrings, a pendant & also a ring. All which have a floral design to the pieces. The pendant & ring come with a floral design & have a small CZ stone featured on them. The stud earrings however are just a simple floral shape but equally as stunning! They would make any outfit look that little bit more complete.
I am not a huge fan of gold jewellery on myself & I prefer just costume jewellery to be in gold. So I tend to choose them more in silver. So I purchased the Flora pendant & earrings. I did not get the ring because I am not one to wear rings.
When the pieces arrived I was so amazed by not only the quality of them but also how unique they are. All of the items are like no other jewellery brand I have come across. The items come packaged beautifully in branded boxes & also come with certificates of authenticity. This includes how to care for them. They are not to be 24/7 like in the shower, to the gym etc. Moisture & chemicals can spoil its colour & finish.
There are so many more jewellery pieces like I love I could of spent a fortune! Not only that but they are also reasonably priced so whether you are purchasing for yourself or a gift they are perfect.

Good Evening everyone!
We are half way through the week now! Yay!
I cannot believe it's going to be Christmas next weekend! It really doesn't seem possible at all. Where has the time gone? The whole Christmas thing & this of year just shattters me. This week I have felt so tired even more than normal. I just want more sleep & getting out of bed in the morning is causing a struggle. Or is it just me who feels like that? I don't actually yet feel Christmassy at all or in a festive mood. It's true what they say it's never the same when you get older thats for sure.
I'm not a huge jewellery wearer.
I wear a few pieces like a watch, stud earrings & a bracelet & necklace every now & then. But I'm not one to wear lots of pieces at the same time. I'm also not a fan of big chunky pieces. I think it's because I am pretty petite, I have the skinniest wrists so I struggle to find bracelets & watches that do actually fit me well. Watches especially! If they have links in them I have to have half of the links removed in order for it to fit my wrist. Which can be frustrating as you can imagine.
Recently I have been loving the knotted theme jewellery. Since I saw a very cute one on Sam Faiers teamed up with her Abbott Lyon watch. It looked so so lovely!
Smaller more delicate pieces of jewellery are always hard to find I believe, so when I find somewhere that does such pieces I tend to go back & purchase from them. Not only that but I love buying from places where the item is hand made because no two pieces are the same which to me makes them unique. Also it means it isn't something that everyone has. It is also lovely knowing you have supported someone with their own small business & dream rather than just someone that mass produces something. It's something I think more people should support!
I come across Handmade Simplicity on Instagram & was immediately drawn to some of their pieces. They are danity, pretty, unique & also handmade & designed which adds such a lovely touch to it.
Lindsay the owner of Handmade simplicity has been in the jewellery industry for nine years & its only been since having her son that she started designing & making her own jewellery line.
The bangle is made of sterling silver & has a knot effect at the top of the bracelet. It is so simple but I think teamed with the right Watch it could look so lovely on the wrist! It's beautiful. I absolutely love it.
Not only that but Handmade simplicity sell a range of products from rings, necklaces, bracelets, bangles. All so unique & as beautiful as each other! They truly would make the best present for Christmas for someone or a birthday present, Mother's Day present or even a little treat for yourself & even better you don't have to worry about everyone having the same as you.
On their website they even give you a ring size guide so if you are unsure of your ring size you can use the page to help you.
