Vintage Wedding Pearl Tiara from Arabella Bianco

You guys… when I was at Arabella Bianco’s in Grays Antique Centre the other week I came across a vintage wedding tiara with a pair of matching earrings – they are adorned with faux pearls and diamante accents *swoon*

It came in this beautiful little fitted box and it is just so lovely when they go that extra mile and make the whole jewellery shopping experience much more special by adding details like these!  The design is Thomas Sabo (I have written about their vintage jewellery before, in case you remember the green tourmaline earrings from the post Tourmaline and silver earrings from Cape Town?

And yes, I may have tried it on – just for the fun of it!  And I looooove it!  At the moment – and for a little while now – my favourite jewellery comes with pearls set in gold, preferably with some sparkle to them, and these beauties tick all the boxes! Can you imagine how beautifully it’ll go with a boho style wedding dress, hair a little wavy and unruly:

They are so amazing at Arabella Bianco when it comes to picking out these special little pieces, that transform a whole outfit and make it unique and so you!  I have said it before and I will say it again – do pop by Vintage Modes in Grays Antique Centre, as the most fabulous vintage costume jewellery can be found on the lower ground floor, at shops like Arabella’s.  Love!!

Oh it was such a fun day in the shop yesterday, as Andrew Prince popped by (you might remember him from the earlier blog post Andrew Prince – Downton Abbey).

I was sitting at my desk in the shop when Andrew suddenly said: “Don’t move, I am just putting a little something on you”.  Now, one of my absolute favourite things in this line of work is of course trying on all the beautiful pieces, so I just sat there quietly until he had finished fiddling around with the necklace – and then I looked in the mirror, expecting a little something dainty:

Yes, I should know by know that Andrew doesn’t do little or dainty – he does fabulous, glorious and exquisite, and all of his pieces makes you feel like you are the Queen of the World.  There is a thought behind the placement of each and every one of the pearls, red stones and the glorious sparkle, and I love how it all comes together in this necklace to create such an impact piece!  Oh well, just another day in paradise!

I hope that you are having a lovely day in the sunshine my dear – and don’t forget to put on your favourite pieces of jewellery!
