Working on my own jewellery brand for the last year, it’s been fascinating to see how one pair of earrings can look so different on each person. Every consideration matters from size to shape and colour to gem cut. Circle dangles can look delicate on one person and intense on the next. Each piece tells a story and helps someone express themselves.

And now with the growth of Australian jewellery brands over the last couple of years, expressing yourself via quickly shipped and locally designed pieces has never been easier. It makes us very excited. Because more brands equals more options! And that means outfits everywhere can go from plain to slayin’ with a few statement necklaces and the right earrings. 

Jewellery is definitely an investment worth making, whether it be in a minimalist pendant with a subtle silver chain or a flashy ring. Some of us simply can’t leave the house without it. 

Scroll through to see which jewellery brands we’re currently obsessed with and how you can snag some gorgeous pieces to level up your style game.
