Some say accessories are just finishing touches—mere ornaments to an outfit. But those of us who know, who feel, understand that they are so much more. Accessories are our amulets, silent companions that hold stories, memories, and a touch of magic. They aren’t just objects; they are extensions of who we are. Forget one, and it feels like leaving behind a piece of your soul.
Earrings: The Spellbinding Touch
I, for one, cannot step outside without a pair of earrings. It’s not vanity—it’s necessity. Earrings frame your face, sculpt your energy, and add an unspoken power to your presence. Big, chunky, colorful ones? They are declarations, loud and fearless. Sleek golden hoops? They whisper confidence. Delicate, dangling charms? They tell a story, swaying with every word you speak.
Ever tried walking out the door without them? It’s like losing your voice, like your reflection in the mirror is missing its final brushstroke. Earrings don’t just decorate you; they ignite you.
My favourite ones are always more on the peculiar side, as I feel like they have the power to transform even the most basic outfit into a spectacular one. Here are the shops that never disappoint me:
Bags: The Keepers of Secrets
A bag isn’t just a bag—it’s a vault of your life. It carries your world, your chaos, your little comforts. Some bags have seen more of your journey than people ever will. They’ve sat beside you in silent solidarity on rushed mornings, late-night adventures, heartbreaks, and triumphs.
Think about your most beloved bag—the one you instinctively reach for, the one that molds to your body like a trusted friend. It knows your hands, your rhythm, your habits. Inside, there’s always something deeply personal: a lipstick that’s been with you for years, a folded-up note, a lucky charm. A bag doesn’t just hold things; it holds fragments of your story.
What is your go to bag? What is your favorite moment that you’ve shared together? I’m curious to hear all about it. Let me know in the comments!
And then…there they are: those charming, sparkling, colourful bags that make us doubt the long lasting relationship with THAT ONE bag, and induce us to fall into temptation. All of a sudden, especially when summer is upon us, we inevitably become unforgivable cheaters.
Did it ever happen to you too? Or is it just me? Should we ask for redemption?
Bracelets & Rings: The Unbreakable Bonds
Some accessories aren’t just worn; they become a part of you. A ring that has never left your finger. A bracelet that clinks softly like a familiar melody. These aren’t mere adornments—they are links to moments, to people, to versions of yourself that once were and still are.
Ever taken off a ring you’ve worn for years and suddenly felt naked? That’s because it wasn’t just metal wrapped around your finger—it was a piece of your essence. Jewellery like this carries energy, absorbs history, and becomes a silent, steady reminder of who you are.
Personally, unless it’s the warmer seasons, I do find myself not going as boldly with bracelets and rings as much as I do with earrings. I just have a few ones at my fingers that remind me of my loved ones that gifted them to me.
More Than Accessories, They Are Rituals
To wear these pieces is to engage in a daily ritual, a quiet act of self-adornment that grounds you, empowers you, makes you feel whole. Each one has its role, its presence, its spell. They complete you.
