Once upon a time, I used to stock up on custom jewellery from Topshop. Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings, you name it. If it was on sale, I bought it. In more recent times, I have played it pretty safe. I have stuck to mostly studs and narrowed down my jewellery collection.
First things to go were the rings. Having tiny fingers, size "S" rings from high street retailers never fit right. (P.S. if you've got a rich Italian hottie that's looking for a wife, my engagement ring size is a U.S. 4.5). Then I got rid of the bracelets, the necklaces and other bits. I decided to stop impulse-buying cheap high street jewellery and invest in quality pieces. A side effect of adulthood? Mayhaps.
For two years, earrings have been my main accessory. I wear a necklace every now and then but I can not do without earrings. Even on days when I can not be bothered to make an effort with my appearance, I still put studs in the top two piercings on my left earlobe.
A few jewellery brands I have discovered for affordable and timeless earrings are Aurate, Kenneth Jay Lane, & Dannijo. I particularly like the packaging Aurate jewellery come in. The pouch that's included to store earrings is one of the classiest I have ever seen.

I will confess, I still check out the sale section for statement earrings every season. Mango and & Other Stories always have good stuff! When it comes to websites that stock multiple brands, I love a bargain and I’m always trawling The Outnet for discounted pieces.
For my Nigerian readers looking to get their hands on affordable pieces, Instagram vendors I can recommend are HoopsN’Studs, Raenna & Davana. If you want to shop from stores that do not deliver to the country, you are always free to email me for personal shopping services and rates.
