It's not you, it's me










Be warned: Me me me jewellery comes with side effects, but don't panic, they're mainly cool side effects. First of all, Me me me designer Jade Gallup, a ceramics student, makes all her jewellery from porcelain, so a night on the tiles could see you literally shattered if you're not careful. Secondly, Me me me jewellery is so darn cute and unique that you'll have a cue of girls asking you about it all night but for jewellery this sweet, it'll be worth it.
Me me me jewellery is delightfully whimisical and fun. Given that Gallup takes her inspiration from her obsession with all things tacky, like religious iconography and bunny rabbits, her designs tend to be on the quirky side but quirky is way better than boring! It's far better to be just that little bit wrong because it makes you look oh-so-right.

Awesome auds



One the one hand, I love you. On the other, I hate you. A modern take on 'He loves me, he loves me not'? All I know is that nothing says 'I love/hate you' better than a pair of Knuckledusters. Designed by London fashion designer Audrey Auds as part of her new accessories range, auds, these Knuckledusters could be the best/worst Valentine's Day gift ever. Other sterling items in her collection include beetle hair-clips and thunderbolt clips all made from mirrors, plastic and hair. Yes. Hair. auds jewellery is handmade to order and a little pricey but jewellery this unique and anti-trend is always worth it.

Kitschy Cool











Tatty Devine jewellery is some of the quirkiest jewellery to come out of London. Started in the 90s by two art school friends, Tatty Devine has since grown into one of the coolest jewellery labels in the UK thanks to their unique idea of elevating plastic jewellery to art status. Needless to say, Tatty Devine jewellery isn't your typical jewellery. One of my personal favourites is their very popular 'Horse and Carriage' necklace: a massive plastic necklace made of a carriage being pullled by two galloping horses. Their previous collections are similarly quirky. Take their Movie Mayhem collection for example. Everything you associate with the cinema became plastic fantastic jewellery: popcorn bracelets; movie reel brooches and 3-D glasses as a necklace. Unique but also very kitsch. Check out their latest collection online at http://www.tattydevine.com/.
