How to Refresh your Jewellery Box this Spring

A new season means we need to refresh our home, wardrobe and life in general, in one way or the other. An easy way to spice things up is by refreshing your jewellery box. Jewellery like many other accessories, has the power to make or break an outfit. Which is why you should pay special attention to your jewellery pieces.

Here are ways you could refresh your jewellery box this spring.

Empty the Jewellery Box

Empty your jewellery box. Take a good long look at all the jewellery you have and decide on what you are keeping and what you are getting rid of. Emptying the contents of your jewellery box enables you to take a good look at all you have. You have to be ruthless here, no room for sentiments if you want to get this stage done properly.

It is ok to have a couple of keepsakes and special jewellery you hardly put on, but any damaged piece of jewellery or any piece you have grown out of,  you should get rid of. This will create some gaps for you to fill up with the right jewellery and you can get quality jewellery when you go to the site go to url as there are loads of fabulous options on the site.

Spring Clean your Jewellery

Give the jewellery you decide to keep a good cleaning with a polishing cloth. This will brighten up the pieces and bring them back to life! Ensure you clean your jewellery as regularly as you can. I recommend after every wear to keep them sparkly.

Go for Quality over Quantity

It always pays to go for quality over quantity for most things, and it is so true when it comes to Jewellery. I rather have a few quality pieces of jewellery than a box filled with cheap high-street junk that would go black or fall apart after a few wears.

I like to spend a little bit extra when shopping for jewellery, after learning the hard way. Back in my teen years, I would happily rock cheap high street jewellery because I didn’t know any better. I can’t imagine doing that now. That would be money down the drain. Nowadays I go for high-end jewellery. I am also a lover of vintage jewellery as they always look so good.

Shop for the Right Jewellery Designs

We all have different tastes when it comes to fashion and jewellery. But there are some universal rules that we should always stick to. For example, earrings should always accentuate the bone structure and not drag your lobes down or pull upwards. Uncomfortable earrings should be discarded immediately.

When shopping for new jewellery, ensure you go for pieces that would suit you best and not what is necessarily in vogue.

Invest in a Jewellery Box

Investing in a good Jewellery Box is a great idea. I currently have 2 jewellery boxes and I find them both very useful. I recently got the second box from Find Me A Gift. It is a personalised jewellery box and fits all my little earrings lying around. It also looks very pretty on my dressing table.

What the Kids are Watching on Netflix

I have organised Fashion and Style Post, and added a Kids Section and Travel Category. And reorganised some posts, so expect some juicy content centred around these topics. I recently wrote a post about what I was watching on Netflix and promised to write a post about what the kids are watching on Netflix. Well here is the post.

My Little Pony

My daughter is crazy about My Little Pony. She has the characters, and she goes to bed with quite a few of them. We had to all go see the My Little Pony movie in the cinema last year because the little madam just had to see it. Her favourite pony is Princess Twilight Sparkle.

I didn’t watch My Little Pony while growing up, but I can see why she loves the show so much. Plus, I like the message behind it. True friendship is magic indeed!

 

Trolls

Our little madam is also a big fan of Trolls. She can watch episodes all day on Netflix if you let her. She loves the Poppy Troll character a lot, and collects her miniatures. The Trolls Holiday 2017 Christmas Special was a hit at our house for both kids including me. I watched it just for the amazing music.

 

Equestria Girls

My daughter is so into My Little Pony characters that she watches the high school version of them too! The Equestria Girls series focuses on the main characters from My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, re-envisioned as teenage humans in a high school setting.

She has recently gotten obsessed with this series and I find it really fascinating, she gives the series her full attention.

Furchester Hotel

My son loves Furchester hotel, and has been watching the series on Netflix for months now. His favourite character is Elmo. He finds the red muppet character very entertaining, and I can see why. I loved Elmo as a kid too. He also likes Bebe a lot.

 

Paw Patrol

Paw Patrol is a Canadian animated series both kids adore. They have loved the series for years and are yet to get over it. My son’s favourite pup is Chase – the German shepherd police officer puppy. My daughter’s favourite pups are Skye and Everest – the only female puppies. Our house is filled up with one Paw Patrol toy or the other.

 

Blaze and the Monster Machines

This is another Canadian animated series my son loves. He has loved it for as long as I can remember. My daughter is also a fan of the series. I love the fact that it keeps them glued whenever it is on TV.

 

Are your kids watching any of these series?

In the midst of the unbelievable weather with the Beast from the East, and Storm Emma, we need to remember it is Mother’s Day next week Sunday. Are you ready with your gifts for mum? If you have not decided what to get your mother for Mother’s Day, then you are in luck. Here are some Mother’s Day gift ideas for you.

 

Give the gift of a book

I love reading and would appreciate a good book as a gift. If you know a mother trying to break into the blogging industry, then my ebook – How to Cash In as a Blogger would be a great gift idea.

“How to ‘Cash In’ as a Blogger” is the definitive go-to guide that sheds light on the rather unconventional world of blogging. It is definitely worth a read, especially for new bloggers. You can grab this for £3.44.

 

Give the gift of jewellery storage

This Personalised Rose Gold Glass Jewellery Box from Find Me a Gift is a great Mother’s Day gift idea. I love the fact that it is rose gold in colour, and the personalised touch makes it even more special.

I am so in love with this jewellery box. If you like, you can grab one for £29.99.

 

Give the gift of detox and cleanse

I recently came across this Himalayan Salt Soak by Isla Apothecary, and I think it would fit in nicely into a well stocked Mother’s Day hamper for a special mother. This product contains trace minerals that accommodate nutrient absorption, improved circulation, balanced body pH, and lymphatic drainage, with grounding and uplifting essential oils.

I am badly in need of some detoxing and cleansing, and I know I am not alone. You can grab this from £21.

 

Give the gift of a fragrance

TERRE DE LUMIÈRE EAU DE PARFUM image

 

If you are on the hunt for a lovely fragrance to gift mum this Mother’s Day, then you need to check TERRE DE LUMIÈRE EAU DE PARFUM by L’Occitane. It smells amazing and stays for ages. I have been using mine for weeks now and I am super in love with the fragrance. It comes beautifully packaged too!
