When it comes to stylists, we know Rachel Zoe always gets it right.

She has recently listed her Top 20 Essential Accessories all girls should own. I agree with all of them except the Wedge shoe. No matter how much I try, I will never be a fan. But I am a fan of oversized sunglasses, scarfs, and vintage inspired clutches. Mostly I am a fan of the jewellery she has listed. The oversized statement necklaces fit in perfectly with our next collection to be launched in May at RAFW (Fashion Week) and everyone needs stud earrings.

Rachel also listed Tassle earrings as a must have. You can snap up yours now with Lydia Jewels having two different coloured versions and one Bridal version to choose from.

Amy, silver tassle with Swarovski crystals – $60

Ashleigh, gold leaves & Swarovski crystal earrings – $60

Elizabeth Taylor tassle earrings – $136

I haven’t had the chance to see Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland film just yet but those that have, are raving about it. Everyone seems to love a bit of Alice and that is extending to jewellery.

Lydia Jewels has been blown away by the response of the media (blogs and magazines) and customers to our micro Alice in Wonderland collection. Girls are loving it so much that we are almost out of materials to make up the pieces that are being ordered and we won’t be getting any more in. So snap up your piece of Alice today.

Some of the favourites

Don’t Forget the Key necklace (only 3 keys left)

Queen of Hearts bracelet (only 4 left)

Pebbles and Bows necklace (only 1 out of 3 left – this is also available in gold)

Key Chain brooch (only 2 left)

Alice earrings (only a few left, at $16 they are a bargain)
