Where has the year gone

Sam Ubhi Xmas bags

I can’t believe that we are already in December.  So Christmas really is just around the corner.

We really do have a fantastic selection of jewellery for all pockets, plus bags and scarves too. Perfect for gifts, for all ages.

Delivery is free in the uk, and everything is gift wrapped.

Table xmasThe Christmas lights are now up here in Harpenden and the town looks so pretty and festive.  The shop is also now looking very festive with frosted coated berries adorning the shelves.

 

Loving Pearls

We are loving our pearl jewellery. It’s so popular and appeals to such a wide age group. They have definitely been bought into the spotlight with the film “The Great Gatsby”, which came out earlier in the year.  Set in the 1920’s when pearls were the thing to be seen in, the pearls worn in the film looked stunning, and with celebrity fans such as Michelle Obama and Sarah Jessica Parker pearls are more in vogue than ever.

Our pearls are by designer Claudia Bradby, an exceptional British jewellery brand. Claudia has been designing since 1999.  Her focus is on “real” jewellery that won’t break the bank, but at the same time each piece is individual and has a timeless elegance.

We have a diverse range, from the more classic “Biography” pearl necklace to the modern “essential” pearl on a short silver sparkling chain.  See them on our website.  www.nikkikkaye.co.uk

I’m also loving this brown leather braided flat bag just in, by Ceannis a swiss make.  It has the look of the Italian designer Bottega Veneta whose luxurious bags have the signature intrecciato woven leather. This is just beautiful craftsmanship makes you appreciate how long it takes to make these amazing pieces, I can’t help but be in loge with it.

Phoebe Coleman

Phoebe shows at London Fashion Week, she was also featured in Septembers Vogue, as well as many other fashion magazines. We love having her here at Nikki Kaye. Her newest collection has just arrived in the store, she studied Fine Art in California. Each of her collections tell you a story and it really is beautiful to see, her newest collection is called ‘Midnight Love’. It was unveiled at London’s Fashion Week, the collection was inspired by 17th century posy rings, which were symbols of love and were depicted in enamel. She uses white and navy enamel, with diamonds, it’s so delicate and feminine.

This jewellery is something you should see, so you’ll have to pop on into our store to come and see them in person. Trust us when we tell you it is worth the efforts, who knows you might just want to own one.
