At The LBD we are always on the look out for the best accessories to pair with our favourite Little Blakc dresses and jewellery designer Kate Halfpenny’s collection of gold and silver charm-inspired necklaces and bracelets make the perfect match.
With a following that includes Erin O’Conner and Kate Moss, we couldn’t wait to investigate what the Halfpenny House is all about. Kate uses both Swarovski crystals and freshwater pearls to create one-off pieces; the result is elegant vintage-style jewellery to keep forever. All of Kate’s necklaces use 14k gold or sterling silver chains, so you can be sure they will keep their sheen- and not turn your skin green! All pieces are delicately, beautifully wrought interpretations of classically popular motifs such as birds, bees, dragon-flies and hearts. LBD favourites include the Buddha necklace with ivory effect and jade beads, and the Black Onyx Heart necklace (again, simple yet classic, much like the LBD). Browse through our selected collection of Kate’s designs to find the ideal addition to your LBD.
More recently, we began stocking Elsie Belle. Injecting colour and ‘cute’ to any jewellery box, Elsie Belle uses antique charms, curios ‘old and new’, as well as reproduction stamped brass to specialise in unusual vintage-style pieces. Trinkets are sourced from all over the world and clearly, Elsie Belle casts its inspiration-net wide, citing old school tattoos, urban street scenes, music, nature, the burlesque, 1920s-1970s fashion, Japanese arts and even cream teas as influential! We like! The result? Inimitable jewellery that is fast gaining recognition on the celebrity style circuit, with enthusiasts including Holly Willoughby, Georgia May Jagger, Pixie Lott and Rachel Stevens. Check out our selected collection of Elsie Belle’s designs.
