Rodney Holman, the quality fashion jeweller, has returned with a further new collection of accessibly priced delights. Combining elegant shapes, quality stones, rhodium and 18 carat gold plating with an eye for the timeless the range includes clip on earrings together with matching necklaces and bracelets.

Due to launch in August at Make Me Beautiful the range promises to be a vintage collection for Rodney Holman. Speaking to us, David Stothart of Rodney Holman said:

“We know that times are tight for a lot of people right now which is why we’ve seen a surge in demand for our timeless pieces that are built to last. A lot of customers are realising that whilst some High Street stores are selling items at threadbare prices, the novelty of constantly needing to replace jewellery that quickly breaks or discolours soon wears off. The Rodney Holman collection, like our previous ranges, costs only a small sum more yet lasts years which in real terms makes it far more affordable.”

Classic and timeless equally doesn’t mean old and tired. Polyvore’s users have created a huge array of fashionable styles using clip on earrings from Rodney Holman’s current collections on Make Me Beautiful. The following three style sets all use the same clip on earring but show just how varied the outfit can be that goes with them!

She’s dated a serial killer, she’s taken money to break a couple up and she’s drugged a man to get him into bed… you got it, it’s ABC soap opera General Hospital‘s bad girl Brook Lynn Ashton. Taking the her name from her Mum’s birthplace, Brook Lynn certainly has lived a little, yet her wild child antics are offset by the voice of an angel and a rock-and-roll look that keeps the fellas on their toes.

CollegeFashion.net, the US online magazine for stylish college girls written by college students for college students has been run a series of “inspired by” style articles. OK, so they’re not suggesting you should try to scam $50,000 from your Grandfather, steal a car or run away to Mexico but let’s just say there is a certain something about Brook that’s captured our hearts and eyes!

Key to catching Brook Lynn’s edgy style is going to be a rocking pair of ankle boots and some awesome earrings. In her Brook Lynn Ashton style guide, CollegeFashion.net stylist Shannon from DeSales University rates both gunmetal hoops and our Weathered Bohemian Disc and Crystal Clip On Earrings as being Brook’s style:

We also covered how the stylists on Polyvore had gotten many style miles from this clip on earring recently and it certainly seems that teaming them up with black denim and a top that’s your skin out is the most popular way to wear them. How do you wear yours? Do you like Brook Lynn’s style as Shannon put it together? Let us know! Pop your thoughts on the Brook Lynn Ashton style guide.

When the queen of British fashion gets together with the queen of British costume jewellery you know something special is about to happen! Zandra Rhodes has confirmed she’ll be collaborating with Adele Marie London to create the Zandra Rhodes for Adele Marie collection. Make Me Beautiful Magazine covered that there was a new clip on earring collection by Zandra Rhodes earlier today and here’s some of the official press release from Zandra Rhodes and Adele Marie at Pure London Fashion Show:

August 2011 will see the iconic British fashion designer Zandra Rhodes launch her range of vintage inspired jewellery in collaboration with Adele Marie, one of the leading costume jewellery brands in the UK.

The collection draws inspiration upon Zandra’s iconic internationally renowned creations and bears the hallmarks of this fashion celebrity who is famous for her creative statements, striking prints and passionate views.

Zandra’s vision for her new collection of jewels is to infuse her unique and eclectic style with current fashion trends to create a stunning modern day collection with sweeping statements from her earlier years. The collection incorporates the designer’s original textile work, featuring dramatic and unique prints, the range consists of retro necklaces, brooches and earrings.

The Zandra Rhodes Jewellery Collection transcends fashion and like her famous creations will become collector’s pieces of the future. Zandra Rhodes for Adele Marie is unmistakably a Rhodes creation that exudes timeless quality.

We also hear a rumour that some of the first items to ship from the collection will be hand signed! We can’t wait!

Nature is a constant source of inspiration. The constant change of seasons, the joy of the sun shining on your face, the elation of bird song, these all thrill us and as the warmer weather approaches and we start to think about getting outdoors, we’ve started putting together selections of earrings inspired by nature.

The first of these mix a range of charms together with feathers on a wood hoop to make an interest gathering piece:

Tickle Me Pretty Earrings - Camel

The Tickle Me Pretty Earrings range is available in 3 colours for pierced earring wearers via Make Me Sexy inlcluding Camel (pictured), Sea Green and Pink. For those of you preferring non-pierced earrings, it’s available in 5 colours as a clip on from Make Me Beautiful. That’s the same three basic colours plus two special editions – Plum and Forest:

You’ll also find that you can get all 8 variations through Amazon. Although they vary in height, due to the natural feathers used, they run to up to 11cm tall making them a great bohemian touch.

Millefiori is a special type of glasswork that creates candy like glass beads with flowers on it. The name comes from Italian. Mille means thousand and fiore means flowers. In fact this type of Murano glass is quite complicated to make but the end result is so cheerful it’s worth all the effort!

Our new range of Candy Clip On Earrings brings this cute Italian style to your collection. In bold colours like blues and oranges, they’re sweet enough to want to suck on!

Baby Candy Round Clip On Earrings - Blue

The new Millefiori clip on earring collection is now available on both Make Me Beautiful and Amazon UK.

Polyvore, the site that lets fashionistas create moodboards from items on store is full of collections featuring our earrings. In fact we loved the tools at Polyvore so much we added the Polyvore button to all our product pages. When you’re viewing a product, just look for the Polyvore button – it’s next to the Facebook and Twitter icons.

This year we’ve decided to give a spotlight to one of Polyvore’s stylists each month. We love the ideas on how to put outfits together! This set comes from *missgirlygirl* and is called Inspiration Flower! The earrings are Rodney Holman Faux Vintage Gold Plated Pink Flower Clip Earrings. Does this give you ideas?

Imagine our surprise. It’s the end of a long day’s work. We need to unwind with a little comedy. We flick telly stations and there on ITV2 is The Only Way is Essex‘s favourite beautician, Amy Childs, wearing our Bohemian Hoop Earrings! She’s been racking up a lot more than just over a million viewers in a week with her short and tight dress sense and boob avoiding cleaner fish!

Hey, less of that – eyes on the earrings please! Can you spot them? Our Boho Hoop Earrings are available in both Gold and Silver tone finish to flatter all skin types. They are available as clip on earrings as well as pierced hoop earrings:

Here’s the viral Cassette Boy vs The Only Way is Essex remix. Shout Brentwood when you spot the earrings!

The people are all real and the scenes unscripted but structured making it a mix between a documentary, a soap and a reality show. It set Twitter ablaze and clocked over a million and a half viewers within minutes of going on air – almost unheard of for ITV2. The Only Way is Essex will bring fake boobs, vain blokes and bling back on December 24th for a 1 hour Essexmas special. We will be watching closely what jewellery the girls are wearing… especially since the Vajazzle!

It’s dark. It’s gloomy. You don’t want to head out but if you want that new pair of shoes next month, you’ve got to get to work! Brighten things up a little by accessorising to suit the weather and your mood.

Rhodium is known for its hypo-allergenic qualities and unlike silver and other metals, will keep its shine for years to come despite the worst of the weather. Rodney Holman does some stunning rhodium plated earrings which make a statement but are toned down enough for a day at work. To avoid getting your jewellery tangled up in your scarf and pulling in the wind, wear studs or buttons. These earrings are clip on so if they do get snagged, it won’t be painful for you.

Trousers and rain don’t always work; wear a dress or skirt paired with opaque tights and some knee high boots. Keep them flat to make them both office friendly and stylish! A classic Mac is always a fantastic staple piece to have in your wardrobe and grab a sturdy brolly to keep yourself dry. Here’s a mood board of how we’d put together a look that’ll get you through the Winter commute without sacrificing warmth, comfort or style.
