Because some of us can’t afford to deck ourselves out in diamonds and rubies, we’ve rounded up the best jewellery you can buy for under £50.
This season, the biggest SS21 jewellery trends include some bolder choices than the simple, beachy shells and pearls that we've seen dominate the last couple of years (although, make note, these trends have not gone away. So prepare yourselves for neon accents, more is more layering and plenty of colourful beads. You can absolutely get away with passing off high street items in place of big ticket designer pieces, be that to suit the modern bohemia or the bigger and more splashy trends. Mismatched looks are also still on trend – so if you can't afford a full set of earrings, just buy one and we promise it'll look purposeful.
If you want something slightly more special, we’ve sussed out all of the brands offering gold-plated rings, bracelets, earrings and necklaces for under £50. They’ll last longer, don’t tarnish as easily as other costume styles, but won’t break the bank either. And the best bit? The more affordable the jewellery, the more budget you’ve got to layer. That's another trend box ticked, then.
Picture wearing these with a hairband and kitten heels and you've excellent wedding guest attire for the spate of late summer nuptials that are surely in your calendar.
