Go Postal

I love getting post, real post mind you, not statements from your bank or bills. I mean handwritten letters from friends, cards and parcels. One of the best things about online shopping is the anticipation waiting for the postie to walk up the path and ring the doorbell to deliver my new favourite thing. Your bog-standard parcel from Topshop or Barratts is enough to get me excited but when a gorgeous little package like the one pictured above arrives it truly does feel like my birthday. The thought put into a simple little parcel, from the handwritten address card to the spotty tissue paper to the complimentary lollipops, goes to show that the lovely people at Hannah Makes Things really think about their customers. It's not just the quirky jewellery that'll have me returning to Hannah Makes Thing for more, it's the little touches that make all the difference.

Jewellery for Ladies

I love love love this girl's jewellery! Lindsay McDowall is based in Glasgow and makes her necklaces using vintage brooches strung with gorgeous pearls. Her designs range from opulent statement pieces, like the necklace pictured above, to understated yet chic pieces like the Bambi necklace featured on her website. Picking up one of her unique designs needn't break the bank either as the most expensive piece comes in at a more than reasonable £50. Lindsay's site also features a range of stylish earrings and bracelets.

lindsaymcdowalljewellery.co.uk is only in the early stages so get behind this new talent and you could transform any outfit with one of her elegant designs.
