An outfit is not complete without accessories.  For years it’s been all about the chunky necklaces, tribal bangles and stylish bags.  But this year, one accessory trend has really taken off and for the magpies amongst us it’s fabulous, the charm bracelet.

Accessories Trend – the charm bracelet

Since pre-historic times charm bracelets have been worn to ward off evil spirits or bad luck.  These days they are more personal with decorative trinkets that represent what is important in the wearers life. Even Queen Victoria was partial to a charm bracelet and this is when they started to become high fashion among those in the right classes.  Nowadays you can buy charm bracelets in a range of price brackets and we want to introduce an exciting fine jewellery brand, Timothy Roe.

Based in Chichester, West Sussex, Timothy Roe fine jewellery are a dedicated team of highly skilled goldsmiths and craftsmen – who design bespoke jewellery, repair and restore and sell amazing collections of jewellery. In their own collection, diamonds and gemstones are carefully selected and each piece is designed uniquely as a ‘one-off’ for the chosen stones. Pieces available include gorgeous engagement rings, spectacular wedding rings and beautiful pendants, as well as bracelets, brooches and cufflinks.
