In this post we’re sharing our January sales picks and exploring three exciting trends for 2017. We’re covering ‘optimism chic’, valentine’s gifts, and the continuing popularity of rose gold.
Optimism Chic
1 – Ice Watch £39.98, 2 – Vintage Daisy Bracelet £81, 3 – Thomas Sabo Eiffel Tower Charm £40.
Called ‘the look of 2017’ by Guardian fashion editor Jess Cartner-Morley, optimism chic is all about cheerful colours, positive motifs, and looking to the future. Think sunny yellows, bright sunflowers and statement styles. This look, and the motivation behind it, can help boost your mood (and others!) according to a study in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, and it’s a great way to beat the January blues. Our picks – a watch, bracelet and charm – are designed to tap three optimistic, spring like trends. Bright yellow, daisy chains and travel (also referencing the multi-colour look so popular this year).
Rose Gold
1 – Links of London Earrings £90, 2 – Emporio Armani Watch £229, 3 – Thomas Sabo Boot Charm £35
Rose gold was the metal of choice in 2016 and is still immensely popular; from jewellery to watches to even iPhone cases and nail polish. It’s a metal with a romantic, nostalgic feel, and is more versatile than yellow gold. It looks fab mixed with white gold, and as an accent (as featured on the boot charm). Our rose gold sales picks are somewhat minimalist, with the focus on the material, without ostentatious detail.
Early Valentines
1 – Thomas Sabo Hearts Charm £17.50, 2 – Thomas Sabo Love Bird Charm £40, 3 – Chlobo Heart Charm Bracelet £157.50
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. Check out our picks of three gorgeous valentine gifts for three budgets. We focused on silver, a classic metal experiencing a revival in 2017 due to it’s simplicity and purity. The Thomas Sabo charms hit two separate budgets and the bracelet is a more luxe option – or you could combine all three for a more special occasion. We do offer a number of other discount heart charms in our special offers section at the moment.
