I definitively prefer to give than to receive and love finding gifts for my friends and family. Christmas however with can be tricky with the numbers of gifts we feel we need to get but also special and jewellery can often be the perfect gift. I love hearing what my friends like to get their dear ones and I loved them picking their favourite pieces for our range. We hope you can find some inspiration for your Christmas shopping right here.

I would choose the Pixie Hoops to gift to myself. I love that you can tailor the charms to suit your character and mood. They are small and delicate with a great deal of charm. My favourites include the lips, evil eye, cactus and toadstool.
I would also choose the Cherish necklaces with the initial discs for my two sister in laws. They have both recently become mothers and there is nothing more special than wearing your child’s initial on a beautiful piece of jewellery close to your heart. Exactly where you want to hold them forever

I would give the Greta necklace to my friend Pia. I love gifting jewellery because it feels very personal and great to give. And then it brings me joy seeing her wear it, I know she will love this necklace and wear it every day.

For my best friends Gabriela and Cristina: I will definitely by them the Pixie hoops with various charms that they can mix and match. They can wear several of them at a time as they have double pierced ears. I think they will love the lip, eye charm, hand, snake and banana charms but honestly all of them are fantastically fun. There is something about these earrings that make me smile!
My mother will love the Solange Bamboo enamel bangle and Blake enamel bangle in red. She adores jewellery and will stack them on her wrist and mix and match them with her gold chain link bracelets
For my sister Sandra I will buy the Jessica earrings ..they are perfectly suited for her ethereal gypsy spirit.
For my sister in law Matia, Solange Mini hoops. These versatile earrings are perfect for her busy life running around town in San Salvador. She will dress them down with jeans and a top or pair them with her floaty Borgo de Nor dresses.

The Frida necklace is the perfect sister/girlfriend gift. It’s what everyone want at the moment. Chunky and perfect for layering with other necklaces. The sun is also a lovely message to carry with you.
I think this could be a wonderful husband/boyfriend gift to his loved one. The Amika Hoops will get lots of comments at parties and will give you plenty of brownie points for picking something so dazzling. These will make any outfit into a party outfit and the dangling stars will make your lady shine.
For mummy, timeless and elegant, one can’t go wrong with the Blake Bamboo bangle and is perfect for stacking with more of the bracelets that you can add for other occasions.
I find it so hard to buy lovely presents for all my goddaughters but the Olivia necklace is so sweet and a lovely memory to keep between you. It’s elegant and looks beautiful on a dress or a top.
The Farrah Lip ring will be a present to myself to make me smile as I sit on my computer.
We hope you'll find some inspiration for this years Christmas shopping!
Enjoy,
