But insteadddd, you choose the genre, we (me and my lovely friend) choose your bling.

Pick your poison?

POP

Feather – Sabrina Carter 

(rose gold, morganite)

Jewellery with Rose gold and morganite has a romantic allure which is the perfect fit for this breezy and girly pop song. The combination has gained popularity recently, as a modern and versatile option for those seeking a unique, feminine touch in their jewellery collection.

The soft, rosy hue of rose gold perfectly complements the gentle pink tones of morganite gemstones, creating a harmonious and girly aesthetic. And Sabrina Carpenter’s playful Y2K-inspired outfits and sky-high heels is inspiring a generation of girls to love femininity again!

Princess Going Digital – Amaarae

(messika jewellery)

Known for their innovative and modernised approach to jewellery, Messika combines traditional expertise with a fresh perspective, creating pieces that revolve around the notion of movement, as seen in their collections where diamonds dance, sparkle, and are engineered to literally move up and down with the wearer. 

This unique take on age-old accessories feels best aligned to none other than Amaarae, who is making similar waves in the music industry with her ever-changing style. Her song “Princess Going Digital” emulates both aspects of RnB and Pop and gives the vibe of a girl who’s just out splashin’ cash and living life – something only someone who could afford Messika’s collection (which can go for £2k+ per piece) would do.

CLASSICAL MUSIC

Carnival of the Animals - Camille Saint-Saëns 

(sapphire and diamond dinner jewellery)

Sapphires and diamonds are the epitome of opulence and sophistication, perfect for balls, dinners and other high society occasions. The rich, deep blue hues of sapphires, often paired with the dazzling brilliance of diamonds, emanate the luxurious and timeless elegance of this beautiful suite by Camille Saint-Saëns.

Anna Karenina – Piero Piccioni 

(coloured stone, pigeon blood ruby, dinner jewellery)

Pigeon Blood Rubies are characterized by a rich red hue with hints of blue, deriving from the same blood-red appearance of a pigeon's eye. They are highly sought out for due to their brilliance and colour saturation, emanating both wealth and luxury. The affluent associations with this piece of jewellery go perfectly with the elegant tune of Piero Piccioni’s underrated classic “Anna Karenina”, as its simplistic piano tune melt beautifully into the lilt of the flute. It’s like something you would hear in a high-end lounge or the dinner party of a rich widow. The song itself is named after a timeless literary masterpiece that delves into the complex themes of love and passion that manifests into a tragic affair. Considering how red often connotes these same concepts, these two pieces of art are a match made in heaven.

ALTERNATIVE

My Love All Mine – Mitski

 

(Lockets)

Lockets are timeless and sentimental pieces of jewellery, renowned for their symbolic association with love and cherished memories. Mitski sings of the natural beauty of life and all the love she has to give. The act of enclosing something precious within the locket so close to your heart represents intimacy and treasured connections. Both locket necklaces and Mitski’s songs are emblems of love, devotion, and sentimental attachment. A perfect match!

Locomotive – King Krule

 

(Gucci silver)

Gucci's silver jewellery infuses a grungy twist into its luxurious designs via unconventional shapes, distressed finishes, and edgy motifs. These often include rugged textures, asymmetry, or a deliberately tarnished appearance, dichotomising the usual elegant association of the aforementioned metal. This sense of rebellion and individuality, aligns with King Krule’s more unconventional and raw music style, with his rough voice and complex lyrics, he too presents himself as a rugged artist who is prepared to subvert the norms of the industry. The song “Locomotive” touches on the darkness of being alone whilst surrounded by others who seem not to be. Very dark and rough, much like how Gucci often presents their brushed silver collections.

(our personal picks)

INDIE (Mimiiiii)

Hot Rod - Day Glow

(charm bracelets)

Charm bracelets act as tiny canvases for personal expression, and their inherent versatility and customisability often reflect one's personality. The final result of collecting and adding charms contributes to one's unique narrative and can represent a story of what someone has been through and the things that they hold dear to them. In Dayglow’s “Hot Rod”, the singer wears his heart on his sleeve in a similar way to how one would wear said bracelet, spilling out his feelings out about a relationship that seems to have gone awry. His playful digs about “not wanting to be décor" and how his partner “isn’t such a hot rod” mimic the same playfulness of a charm bracelet – slightly childish, but with a hint of nostalgia that keeps bringing you back (which could reflect the same reason he stays with the girl he sings of).

R&B (Grace)

After the Storm – Tyler the Creator ft. Kali Uchis

(gold diamond hoops)

Nothing more clean and classic than gold hoop earrings, an R&B staple! After the Storm is such a smooth and versatile song, a new sound that still fits in with its peers. Gold hoops are a timeless and versatile accessory that effortlessly blend sophistication with a touch of understated glamour. I think this song oozes glamour in its own way, with Kali Uchis’ buttery smooth voice.

Well, there you have it!

What did you get??  Would you wear it??  lmkkkkk

Byebyeeee
