Stud Earrings for the "Younger Wearer"

My 11 year old daughter was desperate to have her ears pierced, which finally I gave into last year for her birthday. Since then, I have been very disappointed to find that there is a distinct lack of good quality earrings for younger people. At that age, I was keen to find earrings that were made from silver rather than base metal or plastic but also be smallish studs, in designs suitable for that age group - only to find that a local girls accessories store (rhymes with "Pears") seemed to have a monopoly on these type of earrings. These products were not only on the pricey side but also had quite a limited selection in silver.

Therefore we have now put together our own range of earrings that will specifically suit children and young people. All of our earrings have 925 sterling silver backs and posts and some are made entirely of sterling silver. We have also selected a range of fun designs that include, owls, ducks, feet, flowers, butterflies, hearts, seahorses and stars. Although these earrings are not suitable for the initial piercing period, they offer a good quality earring which will last. Prices start at 3.95, so they are extremely good value for silver earrings.

Kazuri Beads

17th October 2011 - Taylor & Vine Jewellery are proud to anounce the addition of Kazuri Beads as a new jewellery brand within their ever expanding web site. Kazuri Beads offer a collection of handmade ceramics beads, beautifully glazed in a wealth of vibrant colours and unique designs.

Kazuri, which means small and beautiful in Swahili, is hand-painted ceramic jewellery made in Kenya. Every bead which makes up a necklace or bracelet is shaped by hand by one of the 300 local women employed by Kazuri. The beads are then kiln fired once, glazed and fired again before being strung. Founded by the late Lady Susan Wood, Kazuri is still located where she first started creating employment for struggling single mothers back in 1975.

In an age of mass-produced goods, Kazuri jewellery stands out as a little bit different. As every piece of jewellery is handmade, every one is unique. The colours are stunning and the glossy finish adds an air of sophistication and class to each item. The timeless designs also ensure they stand the test of time and will be a asset to any jewellery box

Wear your costume jewellery with Confidence & Style

Costume Jewellery is the perfect way to accessorise an outfit without breaking the bank, however there can be a tendency to overdo it. There’s a very fine line between hittting the style bang on trend and attracting unwanted looks from passers-by. To avoid creating any costume jewellery faux pas, following these simple tips will help you to hit the right mark every time.

1. Learn from the Celebrities
Celebrities know that to make the best-dressed lists and steer clear of the disaster lists they should keep their accessories minimal; a bright and colourful cocktail ring adds colour to a bland or plain outfit but when combined with a cluster of studded bangles and several large, dangling necklaces the overall look can become tacky rather than fashionable.

2. Vary the style
Large statement pieces of jewellery are highly noticeable and will almost indefinitely lose their dramatic impact if worn everyday. It is therefore a good idea to wear costume jewellery in different ways, at different occasions with different outfits. By varying the style and what you wear the accessory with, you can keep the trend fresh and interesting without the need for buying new pieces.

3. Stick to complementary colours
Blend colours in, particularly if at work or at formal occasions when it may be advisable to tone down the costume jewellery look. Instead of a large studded pendant, perhaps make a more subtle statement with a colourful but tasteful necklace. Of course at parties or on a night out, it can be much more tempting to have a little fun with your accessories, and in that case, the bigger the better for maximum effect!

4. Plain Clothes have the biggest impact
Costume jewellery has the biggest impact if the clothes themselves are fairly plain. This allows the piece of jewellery to stand out boldly and become an effective feature of the outfit; a trend that many celebrities choose for the red carpet and at high profile events to guarantee they get noticed. Alternatively if the clothes are fairly colourful, or brightly patterned then a couple of pieces of solid jet black costume jewellery can have an equally dramatic effect.

5. Different types of outfits require different kinds of accessories.
If your hair is worn up, then bold earrings can have much more of an impact than if covered by hair, and plunging necklines can be ideally accessorised with a pendant necklace. Large necklines and collars can be balanced with cut-off sleeves and a few wide and striking bangles of varying colour. Cocktail rings look fantastic if wrist jewellery is kept minimal, as it stands out so much more effectively.

6. High Street Prices, Designer Style
The great news with the latest costume jewellery is that it won't break the bank. The continuing trend for jewellery designers and celebrities alike is for bold jewellery pieces that look extravagant and flashy, but are made with materials such as pewter, gold plating and semi-precious stones. This means that you can afford more items for your money and won't be afraid of damaging or losing expensive heirlooms. If you feel like your wardrobe needs updating, buying a few cool pieces of costume jewellery is much cheaper than a new outfit, and can make your clothes seem brand new again.

7. Be comfortable with your own style
Despite the tips on how to wear costume jewellery, the most important thing to remember to choose pieces that suit you and your own style - don’t just wear something because the celebrities are. Wear your Jewellery with confidence and you’re bound to be happy with the impact you make



At Taylor & Vine, we have a fantastic selection of Costume Jewellery to suit all ages and tastes but won't break the bank.

Eve & Fox Vintage Inspired Jewellery

As of September 2010, we are very pleased to announce the addition of Eve & Fox Jewellery to our growing list of Designer Jewellery Collections.

Established in 2008 Eve and Fox, was created by husband and wife team Katherine and Ron Foks. Ron studied in Poland where his love for making things led him to Jewellery making and design. Both have the aspirations to design Jewellery that is great quality, originally designed and affordable.


The pieces have a strong vintage style with many of the charms being vintage finds from Rhode Island in New York, to handmade ceramic pieces made in England. The range is constantly evolving - incorporating botanical themes with unusual vintage finds - finished with unusal beads, ceramic hearts, fresh water pearls, and pretty charms. Every piece of Eve and Fox jewellery is handmade in their studio in Leicester.

We are love the look and feel of these delicate pieces of jewellery, they offer something a little bit different with exceptional quality which would make them the perfect gift.

They also have an excellent price of between £19.95 - £22.95. We have a range of 10 different necklaces currently available, but this is likely to increase between now and Christmas.
