JUNE 2020; EARRING EDIT Chunky hooped earrings are so current right now and we are seeing 70’s style hoops swing dreamily back into fashion. I have been eagerly scooping up these golden jewels to put together for a gorgeous, thoughtful vintage earring edit . Thinking the bigger the better, and eye catching detailing on those smaller hoops . Focusing mostly on pieces hallmarked from 1960 through to 1980, the hoops have gorgeous creole style and thicker twisted details like delicious croissants to dangle from your ears. For those who search for an everyday statement earring that will not irritate the ears, and is reflective of modern jewellery offerings, this edit has you covered . Unusually I have also been picking up the odd pair of vintage gold plated clip on gems to play with too . My usual treasure hunts rarely feature anything that isn’t solid gold, but I have been swayed with these bolder bigger pieces that ooze 80s glamour; faux pearl centres with twisted rope borders, excessively big but oh-so-glam swirls and button shaped gems . The added benefit of these gold plated items is affordability with a still weighty luxurious feel . Most modern costume jewellery never feels like an adequate investment for me. It is so throwaway so quickly, it follows trends too closely to age gracefully through the seasons and the years. If I am going to wear costume jewellery I like it to be handmade or vintage . It feels more desirable and physical. I’m holding something that is of fantastic quality to survive through decades of wear, or something that still retains a piece of its maker’s time and talent . Finding beautifully preserved vintage earrings feels quite special – Who wore these huge dazzling hoops? How many cocktail parties have these earrings seen? There is without a doubt beauty and fun to be found in the bolder pieces ; I have curated a really dreamy selection of vintage earrings for those of you who want to invest in the bigger items with solid gold, and also for those of you who look for something that won’t be worn quite as often to justify an investment, but you still need a glam pair of vintage earrings in your jewel box. For items I want to cherish and fall in love with it has to be solid gold . Something that cannot wear through to a base metal, especially if it is going to sit in my ears and work hard for me as part of a sustainable closet . My favourite everyday earrings are a pair of vintage 60s shamrock engraved gold hoops. They sit on the small to medium size of things and work exceptionally well with everything I wear. I sleep in them, wash with them occasionally ( okay okay every time ) ; I never have to think twice about them . A pair of every day gold hoops you can reach for again and again are essential for your jewellery box, and I have personally sourced you a beautiful collection to peruse . Like all items in my curation, they are only ever pieces I would wear myself. back <<

SUSTAINABILITY Antique and Vintage jewellery is the sustainable option. Shopping with what already exists and reusing beautiful treasures from the past, that stand the test of time due to exceptional craftmanship. Modern fast fashion jewellery today seeks inspiration from antique jewellery and revamps existing designs. Be authentic by owning an original piece of history, which is unlikely to be seen on anyone else. The environmental impacts from mining gemstones and metal ores can be numerous and extensive, by using choosing existing well made beautiful jewellery from our curated collection you can rest assured that this is the green option. Our packaging is sourced from recycled materials where possible, including our bespoke cardboard boxes which can either be recycled or used to house any trinkets you please. If you would prefer to skip the frills and fuss just let us know on ordering to keep your order fuss free packaged. Magical, and sustainable treasures with Charlie Luxe Vintage.

CHARLIE LUXE VINTAGE -ALICE CATHERINE We reached out to Alice last month after admiring her gorgeous vintage style, I always find myself pulled into her photos when scrolling through her feed . Her closet and home are filled with vintage treasures, glimpses of them are shared on her Instagram and blog with her effortlessly chic outfit pairings mixing smoothly alongside modern offerings . We collaborated with Alice asking her to play with and style our vintage jewels. The photos from our collab can be found on our Instagram , Alice’s Instagram and throughout our chat here with Alice on vintage . ————————————————————————————————————- Alice, Your feed is filled with beautiful vintage styling from your home to your clothes- What age did you become interested in vintage ? Thank you so much, that’s so kind! I think I’ve always been attracted to ‘old things’ for as long as I can remember. I’ve always loved History and Literature and I think those two things have definitely led me towards an interest in vintage pieces. Whether it’s spending the day in a museum or digging through an old book shop – I’ve fallen in love with the idea that everything has a story attached to it in some way or another. I also spent a lot of time at my Grandparents house in the Lake District growing up. They both loved collecting antiques and there was a big Grandfather clock in the hallway that used to fascinate me/creep me out a bit at the same time. My Mum sometimes says that I’m my Gran reincarnated – I think because we both gravitate towards the same traditionally ‘masculine’ style pieces. Gold signet rings, oversized striped blouses, and chunky shoes that some might consider ugly… Is there a particular era you are most drawn to when choosing vintage items to wear and keep in your home ? I love the Sixties/Seventies but mainly because I’m drawn to the spirit of those eras and what they represented in terms of women’s fashion/more freedom for female expression and just generally having more fun with personal style. I love Mid Century Modern style pieces for my home – my homeware taste is weirdly a lot more colourful than my wardrobe taste. I think it’s easier to express more sides of my personality throughout my home style, whereas I’ve definitely developed a bit of a uniform when it comes to my wardrobe. I think that just comes naturally with getting older and experimenting a bit less. In general, I think it really depends on my mood each day – I definitely don’t consider my style to be loyal to any particular era. Some days I’ll want to feel really classic 40’s/50’s inspired in a cream blouse, tailored trousers and a pearl necklace. Other days I might even look quite Nineties inspired in jeans, an oversized shirt and Converse. It’s all mood dependent, and usually whatever TV show/film I happen to be into at that time. The jewellery on your Instagram photos has a lovely gold vibe to it, is there a certain style of jewellery you look for when hunting for vintage treasures ? Definitely gold pieces! I love anything chunky with interesting stones. My jewellery is really where I like to make a statement, so I like it to feel a little bit ‘over the top’ sometimes. I collect vintage clip on earrings for example – I think it’s fun to add them to a really laid back outfit like jeans and a T-shirt. They just amplify any look and make getting dressed way more fun. I also love gold chains and signet rings. I have quite a few vintage pieces that I wear on repeat – I love how conversational jewellery can be, and I like everything I pick up to have a memory attached to it. Jewellery is such a personal thing and I definitely feel like something is missing when I forget to wear any. You were able to have a play with a wide range of our pieces from different eras all with a variety of styles, what was your favourite piece and how would you style it ? I really loved the pearl necklace because it had such a gorgeous vintage clasp! I think details like that are really what make vintage jewellery feel so special. I also loved a lot of the gold chains because they were fun to layer together. Layering jewellery is always like a bit of a jigsaw puzzle – I’m forever adding things and then removing them again until I find a combination that really works. Finally, do you have any tips on figuring out what styles of vintage to go for and what to look for when buying vintage ? These days, I just go with what I’m most attracted to! I don’t really think about trends too much as I get older – I know what suits me and makes me feel my best. In terms of clothing, I always pick fabrics that feel nice on the skin, and don’t take anything home that requires too many repairs. Life is too short and it’s likely not to get worn! When it comes to jewellery, always ask questions if you’re buying online and there’s not enough imagery. I’d also recommend investing in real gold/silver pieces because they have real value and you can pass them on if you get bored of them – costume jewellery is fun but it just doesn’t last. I’d much rather build up a collection of well crafted pieces over a lifetime. I think that’s what makes a jewellery box so special and meaningful! My Grans was like a treasure chest and I used to love imagining where she wore specific pieces and how she might have styled them… ——————————————————————————————————– We loved working with Alice and talking all things vintage .
