September Sparkle
Cosy Layers & Jewellery Staples for Autumn
September has arrived with its beautiful colours and gently cooler days, so naturally I am beginning to crave those cosy vibes. When I took my dog out for his morning walk earlier, I was struck by the delightful and evocative autumnal smell that comes with walking in the woods. It took me right back to walking as a child in Tardree Forest with my parents and sisters.
The feeling that it is time to get out the chunky knits, soft scarves, and warm boots is here . Just as we begin to layer our clothes to embrace the season, autumn is also the perfect time to layer our jewellery. Think of rings peeking out from woolly cuffs, pendants resting over fine knits, and bangles catching the light as you munch on a freshly picked red apple and beautifully ripe blackberries.
This season brings with it warmth, texture, and thoughtful details. Here’s how to bring autumn sparkle into your everyday look.
Seasonal Styling Tips
✨ Rings with knitwear: A stack of slim rings looks effortlessly chic alongside ribbed jumpers and oversized sleeves. Mix metals—silver and gold together feel fresh yet timeless—and let the soft folds of your clothes frame your jewellery.
✨ Botanical earrings: Lean into the gentle change of season by wearing autumnal sterling silver flower studs, suitable for smart office wear and for a lunch date wearing your favourite chunky jumper.
✨ Necklaces over layers: Don’t hide your pendants under a roll neck; let them shine against cozy fabrics. Longer chains look beautiful over fine and chunky knits, while interlinked pendants bring movement to stylish knit dresses.
Jewellery That Feels Like Autumn
There’s something grounding about autumn jewellery. Organic shapes and textures mirror the season’s natural beauty:
🍂 Hammered finishes that mimic the uneven beauty of fallen leaves.
🍂 Interlinked rings that echo the comfort of togetherness.
🍂 Pebble-inspired pendants for a nod to slow walks in nature.
Each piece becomes more than an accessory—it’s a small reminder of the grounding, tactile richness of autumn.
A Thoughtful Gifting Season
September is the perfect moment to get ahead of gifting. Whether for early autumn birthdays, anniversaries, or a “just because” token of love, jewellery makes for a heartfelt present. A stacking ring set can grow with time, while a pendant offers something personal and lasting.
Because each piece is handmade in my home studio, stock is limited—making every gift all the more meaningful.
