It was an awards ceremony that will be better reme

It was an awards ceremony that will be better remembered for its Zoom malfunctions than its fashion, but there were still red-carpet jewellery moments to be found at the Golden Globes 2021 – even if they happened within stars’ homes.⁠
⁠
Some nominees and winners played it casual on Zoom, such as Jodie Foster, who accepted her award for her role in The Mauritanian in her pyjamas. Others called in major jewels and dresses - including Anya Taylor-Joy, as you can see here, who collected her award for The Queen's Gambit wearing a glittering floor-length Dior dress and diamonds from Tiffany. ⁠

There are lots of reasons to make Mother’s Day s

There are lots of reasons to make Mother’s Day special this year. Treating your mum with an IRL gift after a long year of Zooming. Showing your appreciation to the mother of your children – or yourself – for taking on the extra unpaid roles of school teacher and, seemingly, full-time snack chef.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
While chocolates or flowers might be the traditional go-to gifts, jewellery will outlast and outshine both. As we all know, this has been an extraordinary year for mothers; be that intensified juggling as home, work and school lives have merged, or for those with grown-up children, playing an endurance game as face-to-face quality time has been replaced by snatched moments on video calls.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Some partners or children will recognise this. However, this Mother’s Day could also be a moment for mums to treat themselves to a piece of fine jewellery to mark the year that has passed – as a supplement to those cherished, yet ultimately less wearable, handmade cards and sloppily but lovingly crafted breakfasts in bed.⁠⁠

If there is one fashion accessory that will foreve

If there is one fashion accessory that will forever be associated with our move into this new decade, it is the face mask. Covering up our faces has become a life-saving, essential element of everyday life. However, it was once a far more stylish endeavour, as the new Fanfare Symphony jewellery collection from @houseofgarrard reminds us.⁠
⁠
In 18th century London – just as Garrard was opening its first store in 1735 – one of the most fashionable nights out was to be found in the city’s theatre district. Here, the well-heeled of the metropolis would gather for opera masquerades at which the must-have accessory was a bejewelled fan to be fluttered mysteriously across one’s face.⁠
⁠
Inspired by this historical sartorial flourish, and the synonymy with its own roots, Garrard created its Fanfare collection of jewels that mimicked the shape of the operatic fans in gold and gemstones in 2018. This year, the jewellery maison has returned to this collection, giving it a colourful update by using hardstones – semi-precious gemstones often used in mosaic work or gem-carving techniques such as intaglio...⁠
