Guest Blog: Jeweller Daisy Knights on her inspiration…

October 24, 2011 Guest blogs

Daisy & I met at a London Fashion Week party for Glenda Bailey,  when I drooled over her beautiful jewellery (you really can’t take me anywhere…).

Shopping: (broken) Shopbop neon pink necklace

Thumbnail image for Shopping: (broken) Shopbop neon pink necklace March 3, 2011 Accessories

When I buy clothes, shoes or jewellery I expect a certain correlation between price and quality.
