Mother’s Day Jewellery – The Best Gift for the Best

Mums love jewellery. Mums love Mother’s Day. Need we say more?

Of all the holidays, this is the one to observe. A card and a call are the absolute minimum. In fact, we’d suggest you lay it on the line with some jewellery for Mother’s Day. Go on. Go crazy.

All our jewellery – in sterling silver, gold and rose gold –is lovely, stylish, and timeless too. And our selection is easy to choose from. It’s been carefully curated so that, really, you cannot fail.

Also, there’s no need to strike it rich to buy jewellery for Mother’s Day (though you will hit the jackpot when your mum opens her gift). Our gorgeous designs are made with the best semi-precious metals and stunning sparkling stones and represents not just top-quality but excellent value too, especially when you enjoy a 20% discount in our Mother’s Day Sale. Simply use this code – MUM20 – at checkout and the discount will be applied.

Mum would love this silver cluster necklace pendant. It’s classical and simply stunning, its beautiful stones set in a sterling silver pendant.

And she’d adore the matching earrings, equally classical, a vintage glamour that’s as stylish today as in its Belle Époque heyday. The round silver halo cluster earring studs make a great Mother’s Day gift in their own right, with or without the necklace.

Or else you could really go for it with some heart jewellery, a bracelet with heart-charms or perhaps some heart-shaped earrings. I love you mum!

Whatever you choose, jewellery for Mother’s Day is kind and thoughtful. Less obvious than flowers. Longer-lasting than a slap-up carvery lunch (lovely as that might be)! The perfect present.

Now, why did we say that of all the gift-giving holidays and red-letter days Mother’s Day is the one to remember?

Well, Father’s Day is an American invention, formalised in the 1960s. It’s easy to feel that it’s a purely commercial occasion, and many are cynical about it. Other celebratory days are more spurious, the inventions of various marketing departments around the world. National Bosses Day anyone? These Hallmark Holidays can be hard to take. Even Valentine’s Day sometimes suffers by association, an ancient Feast Day, long associated with gift-giving and romantic love (see Chaucer!), brilliantly publicised by the card manufacturer in the early 20th century.

But Mother’s Day, well, we can never be contemptuous of it. Our mums wouldn’t let us. Mother’s Day – or Mothering Sunday – is the big one. No criticism allowed.

In truth, Mother’s Day only became officially marked – in the US at least – in 1914 when Woodrow Wilson recognised it with an official proclamation. And, of course, merchandisers spotted an opportunity to sell their goods to ‘moms’ (much to the despair of Anna Jarvis who had campaigned to make it official in the first place). But the point is that mothers have long been celebrated at this time of year around the globe and by countless people. In the Christian churches Mothering Sunday, three weeks before Easter Day, has long been observed. In fact, it’s rarely called Mothering Sunday now. Rather, Mother’s Day is the one we all recognise.

Valentine’s Day Jewellery Gifts

What to buy for Valentine’s Day? It’s time to make your mind up because V-Day is upon us…

Wisely, you’re already thinking about jewellery. You’re here, aren’t you? And jewellery really is the very best Valentine’s Day present, a surprise, a thrill, a treat. It lasts forever. It says all the right things. And it needn’t cost the earth: OneByOne’s gorgeous jewellery collection represents great value.

Perhaps you’ve considered cut flowers. Two dozen red roses would be glorious. But they won’t be around for long. And consider the environmental disaster…

You’ve dismissed lingerie. There’s a selfish personal gratitude element to it (if you know what I mean). And it can be tricky too, easy to misjudge…

Chocolates are somehow wrong, even the most luxurious ones. Cuddly toys are plain weird. Perfumes and products are possibilities. A bottle of champagne (pink?) might pass the test. But in your heart of hearts (and that’s where you need to look at this time of year) you know that jewellery is the ideal Valentine’s gift for her. So let’s give you some Valentine’s jewellery ideas.

Spell out your feelings clearly with this gold triple heart necklace, a trio of cut out hearts suspended from an elegant chain. It’s undeniably sweet, but because it’s so stylish it’s never too sentimental.The same piece is available in sterling silver for some shimmer and sparkle. You can also buy it in rose gold, a safe option which goes with all skin colours, all outfits in fact.

We have a wide choice of heart jewellery, not just necklaces, but also heart earrings, bracelets and bangles. But maybe you don’t want to do hearts? We get it. You’re worried it’s too cute. OK, so instead you could woo to win with this oval pave ring, a large open oval which glitters with crystal clear zirconia stones. It’s very fashionable, but timeless too. A high-quality ring set with beautiful stones does not age. This one’s in silver, but it also comes in gold, rose gold and even in stand-out black rhodium for an especially sparkling contrast with the cubic cut gems that embellish it.

Charm bracelets are great, a traditional lover’s gift, though ours are as chic as they are classical. We have heart designs, snowflake charms, the moon and stars too (which seems to be a good way of spelling out how important someone is to you - in the style of Drogoto Daenerys in the first season of Game of Thrones)!

Maybe you want to go edgier. Maybe you want to spend more? Well, you could consider stacking rings or bracelets or even layering up necklaces. Stacking rings (the same style in different metals or perhaps a mix of different shapes), piling up bracelets and bangles or else layering necklaces (different lengths, even different colours) can be grown-up, gorgeous and glamorous. And of course, your generosity will be noticed.

Hopefully that jewellery selection has made things easier, given you some ideas, so now you can concentrate on a whole day dedicated to love!…

But don’t forget the Valentine’s card. It can be cute. It can be arty, romantic or funny. You can even sign it if you want to. (Apparently Valentine anonymity is not what it used to be, something to do with stalking probably…)

Remember these final points too:

You can confidently give the gift of love this Valentine’s Day. (Free Returns!)

Love can be expedited. (Next Day Delivery!)

Sending love costs less than you think. (Free Delivery!)

We’ve got romance all wrapped-up (Free Giftwrap Service!)

Jewellery Unwrapped = Joy Unbridled

Jewellery is the ideal Christmas gift, great to give and a joy to receive.

Small Is Beautiful

What makes jewellery the perfect present? Well, gorgeous gifts come in small packages. With Christmas presents, less is more and the smaller the box, the better the outcome. Be it your friend or your fiancée, the woman you buy less for will think more of you… (She’d probably love these square halo drop earrings in rose gold.)

Unboxing

No need to watch unboxing videos on YouTube. (Who does that anyway?) On Christmas morning there will be plenty of oohs and aahs when someone discovers they are on the receiving end of a bracelet, necklace or ring. There’s the pretty drawstring bag, the beautiful ribbon-tied box inside. It’s uncontrived and very special. It suggests extravagance. It says someone thinks highly of them.

Stress Free

Christmas is taken care of with OneByOne Jewellery’s free shipping and gorgeous packaging. Our jewellery comes in a simple satin bag, the elegant box inside it. It’s beautifully done. No need for gift-wrapping. So, put away the wrapping paper, scissors and Sellotape. Relax. Breathe. Don’t let the season stress you out.

Simple Elegance

The simplest solution, in almost all things, is often the best - and so it is with present buying. Jewellery has always been a first-class gift, accomplished and adult. It’s the simple solution yet also the sophisticated solution. Be it for your wife or girlfriend,your sister or mother, a gold or silver gift says all the right things.

What Jewellery to Choose?

Perhaps you think jewellery is tricky to buy, hard to choose? It’s really not. That you’ve bought an item of jewellery is instantly romantic, undeniably thoughtful, almost certainly generous. So the battle is already won. Sure, you might be taking a small risk should you buy a big statement or showy piece. But stick to something pretty, something timeless, and you’re on safe ground. And trust that we’ve already picked great items, that we only sell gorgeous things. Take a look at some stunning Christmas gifts for her. Maybe this drop dead gorgeous crystal cuff bangle, in sterling silver? (And if you really are worried about choosing the ideal piece of jewellery, getting it just right, well, worse-case-scenario, OneByOne Jewellery has a hassle-free and speedy returns service.)

In summary:

You won them over before the box was opened. The gift of jewellery is a winner.

It’s actually the easy solution to Christmas shopping stresses.

Jewellery is easier to buy than you think. Our carefully curated collection guarantees success!

If someone doesn’t like it – what’s wrong with these people!? – you can return the item, no problems, no questions asked.

Rose Gold Reigns For Parties

Winter can be one of the most exciting times of the year for fashion. Just look at Michelle Obama’s rose gold Atelier Versace gown in her final state dinner as First Lady. Classic and elegant in colour and styling, this rose gold frock secured her legacy as an empowering woman.

Finding the perfect dress is one thing, and getting the shoes to match is another, but what can really make an outfit are the accessories.

The brilliant thing about rose gold jewellery accessories is they look festive and can be paired with any winter outfit to give it that sense of elegance needed for a winter celebration. Looking for some inspiration? Here’s our guide on matching the perfect accessories to some major winter occasions.

The Work Party Everyone wants to look their best at the annual work party so to look glamorous in front of your work colleagues choose rose gold earrings to give that extra shimmer to an outfit. This pair of earrings, for example, have an intricate and delicate design which means they are perfect with whichever hair style you opt for. Their subtle size means they are a gorgeous addition to complement an outfit, rather than a dominating piece.

The Family Gathering At the family gathering the formality might be toned down a little so you want to look good without having to seem like you tried. With this rose gold criss cross X ring you won’t have to try at all. A simple yet unique design, this ring can dress any outfit up or down because of it’s versatility. It’s a practical design to make it the kind of accessory you’re not only proud to wear, but you’re comfortable styling too.

Christmas Day Christmas day aka the biggest day in the winter calendar, is also the one where most of the photographs will be taken. This modern rose-gold necklace is stylish and classic. With crystals for that extra bit of winter shimmer, it’s a compliment winner. The triangular shape can add emphasis to any neckline and will not only look stunning on its own, but will lift an entire outfit.

New Year’s Eve Whether you’re going to a party, a club or to a fancy restaurant, accessories are very importance on New Year’s Eve. Still maintaining the festive spirit, this rose gold bangle is impressive enough to draw attention without being overpowering and heavy. It’s lined with cubic zirconia stones to boost that winter feel.

Bracelets, Bangles and Summertime Style

It’s summer in the UK, and that means a few things… 

First of all, sunshine! OK, so GB isn’t the most reliable place in terms of weather, but when the sun does shine, it’s glorious. Hello Pimms!

Secondly, fashion takes a turn for the best. The weather kicks ladies into holiday mode, with flowing maxi dresses, bejewelled sandals, flower wreaths and floppy sunhats to boot. How do you top it all off? With wrists that are dripping in bracelets, bangles and accessories, of course.

The fabulous thing about bracelets and bangles is that you can custom build a look for every occasion. Make a simple statement with a single bangle, or layer up for a bold look that’s all your own. Just look at the way Pippa wears this simple gold bracelet to complement her magenta dress and statement necklace. We’re pretty sure she’s not heading to the office, but style wise she definitely could be!

Looking for a little style inspiration? Here’s our guide to rocking bangles and bracelets all summer long…

Corporate Chic During the working week, it’s probably best to tone things down with just a handful of bangles. Think slimline, elegant designs that get the corporate seal of approval. For something simple yet stylish, we love the stacked look of the Crossover CZ Bangle Bracelet in Rose Gold Vermeil. Featuring a trio of cubic zirconia studded strands, it’s a statement piece that’s subtle enough for every day wear.

If you’re planning on heading out for Friday night drinks with the team, throw a few bangles in your purse during the day, then whip them out when the clock hits 5pm. Hands down, a spectrum of bangles is the perfect way to dress up your work attire when transitioning from the boardroom to the bar.

Weekend Style When the weekend rolls around and it’s time to get a little more playful, stacking bangles is the perfect way to bring a touch of boho blithe to your look. Whether you’re rocking a sassy summer sundress, sheer kaftan or nautical inspired ensemble, layering bangles is the perfect way to dress up any outfit.

This season, cuff style rings and bangles have definitively made their mark on the jewellery scene. The unorthodox Crystal Cuff Bangle designs are geometrically inspired, and look great when worn alone, or set off with other spherical bangles.

Want to shine in a whole new light? Choose to coordinate your bangle colours, or step out in a kaleidoscope of silver, gold, rose gold and black rhodium. This is a gorgeous look for festivals, with the stacked look reminiscent of Woodstock free spirits and flower children.

Holiday Allure For Brits, summer holidays are more or less a rite of passage. Whether you’re heading to Greece, Spain or beyond, a collection of bracelets and bangles is a must for any holiday jewellery inventory. 

When sightseeing during the day, simply throw on one or two for a practical yet pretty look. When the sun goes down and it’s time to hit up restaurants, bars and clubs, layer up for a stunning aesthetic that will turn heads.

Sure, we’ve focussed on how to wear bracelets and bangles when the sun’s shining. But ultimately, they’re a versatile year-round accessory. When the weather cools down and winter wardrobes re-emerge, our timelessly elegant bracelets and bangles can be paired with any outfit.

Crazy About Cluster Earrings

Crazy About Cluster Earrings from OneByOne Jewellery UK http://onebyonejewellery.tumblr.com/post/147508118614

​Crazy About Cluster Earrings

When ONE stud earring is simply not enough what’s a girl to do? Cluster, of course.

When you’re not sold on drop earrings but want to add a little more ‘va va voom’ to your look, clustering up is the perfect solution. Single cubic zirconias never fail to deliver on sparkle. But crystallise them side by side and the effect is exquisite.

This season we’re crazy about cluster stud earrings. Here’s why!

Extravagant By Nature Not one glittering gemstone. Not two. But an entire cluster of resplendent rocks that shine and sparkle to create a stunning effect. As the name suggests, cluster earrings feature a handful of gems, placed side by side for a superlative sparkle. The sheer presence of multiple cubic zirconia gems gives cluster earrings an extravagant aesthetic, which brings a touch of luxury to any outfit.

From Day to Night, and Beyond… The great thing about studs is that they’re versatile enough to wear on any occasion. Want to glam up your everyday office attire? Throw on a pair of Sterling Silver CZ Cluster Round Stud Earrings and you’ll instantly bring a feminine touch to even the most masculine of dress suits. Feeling like your after dark cocktail dress is lacking a little je ne sais quoi? The same pair of earrings will glam up your outfit in seconds. Attending a family BBQ on the weekend and want to look your best? Rock a casually chic look by teaming your cluster studs with cut off jean shorts, a striped tee and a sassy pair of espadrilles.

In fact, cluster stud earrings are so elegant, they can even be worn as a bridal accessory. Simple yet sophisticated, the understated designs literally complement any gown. Plus, they’re versatile enough to wear again and again, even after your wedding day’s wrapped up.

A Cluster Earring for Every Occasion With a myriad of styles and colours, there’s a cluster earring set for every occasion. Choose from 14ct Yellow gold vermeil, highly polished sterling silver, dramatic black rhodium or this season’s must have precious metal, rose gold. Crafted with .925 sterling silver and overlaid with a coat of 14ct rose gold vermeil, our Triple Cluster Crystal Studs are the perfect gift, or indulgence. A trio of faceted cubic zirconia stones are set in a neat cluster, with each held in place by fine claws. This maximises the amount of light that hits the facets, and creates a brilliant lustre from every angle.

The Dark Side… Feeling a little wild? Why not turn to the dark side and flaunt a pair of dramatically different Black Rhodium Triple Cluster Facetted CZ Studs? Eternally stylish, the dark sheen of the black rhodium plating sets off the translucent white shine of the cubic zirconia stones.

Will we be clustering up this summer? Absolutely!

Top tip: Wear your hair in an ‘up-do’ to draw attention to your cluster earrings, and achieve maximum sparkle. Perfect for special occasions when you want to add a touch of glamour, without overshadowing your dress.
