  1. Wee Find: Les Nereides for Anthropologie

    Les Nereides for Anthropologie ring. I've been researching statement earrings for a shopping guide I'm publishing later this week and I stumbled across this new collection of jewellery by French jewellery brand Les Nereides for Anthropologie. While decorative and ornate, the designs also have a delicacy in the details, with tiny enamel insects crawling over stones and faceted jewels. The pretty colour palettes used in the collection are also eye-catching, and I really love the "subtropical" ring and necklace with a green fern frond curling around a pink-fleshed carnivorous plant; a fly teasingly perched on the edge. Les Nereides is the brainchild of Belgian artists-and-designers Pascale and Enzo, now based in Nice, France. The collection for Anthropologie captures the quirkiness of the French brand perfectly for the Northern summer.
