IN PARTNERSHIP: The magpie in us is always drawn to something shiny and with Eid al-Fitr around the corner, we’re sharing our favourite jewellery picks from Net-A-Porter.
Whether it’s a gift idea or a personal treat, a striking piece of jewellery has an incredible ability to enhance any outfit. However, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by a sheer number of options, so we have decided to focus on contemporary brands that are doing something a little different.
If you’re not sure where to begin, we’ve done the hard work for you and picked out three key pieces from each designer to get you started on your own glittering collection.
Maria Tash
Celebrated piercer Maria Tash has been in the business for longer than you’ve had your ear piercings. A true visionary, Tash continues to innovate the industry with her approach to placement and ear curation while crafting jewellery that sit as close to the skin as possible. Combining comfort of wear with beautiful design, Tash has a real knack for creating jewellery that all the cool girls want to wear.

Messika
When the daughter of a diamond dealer, Valérie Messika, launched her jewellery brand, she wanted to focus only on diamonds and break the traditional codes of jewellery making. She mixed different diamond shapes and sizes together, created unusual silhouettes and eventually started to blend diamonds with colourful semi-precious stones, and even wood. Loved by the likes of Beyoncé and Hailey Beiber, Messika delivers everyday, modern and wearable jewellery.
