All Things Desiderate ... Blog

Life can get pretty hectic, and it’s all too easy to forget about self-care, especially when things get tough. But treating yourself to a lovely piece of jewellery isn’t just an indulgence, it's a great way to lift your spirits and acknowledge your worth.

How can wearing a beautiful ring or a pair of earrings can help you feel more like yourself, even on tough days? Let's explore the idea behind the "lipstick effect" and why choosing jewellery as a treat can be a smart investment, especially with rising silver prices. 

And even if you’re not ready to buy, browsing our collection can add a bit of brightness to your day. You deserve it!

Are you looking for Mother's day gift ideas? Your mum is special to you. And even though she’s insisting that you ‘don’t need to spend too much’ or that she ‘doesn’t need anything,’ you want to spoil her anyway, right? If you have been searching for mothers day gifts on Google, you’re in the right place. 

Is your mum your go-to person? She’s there to listen when you need to celebrate, whinge, listen, help with stain removal, or clean your kitchen even though you’re a grown adult. She buys your favourite snacks, and she sends you cute text messages with too many emojis, but you wouldn’t have her any other way. Does she make the best lasagne, cakes or cheesy biscuits? Perhaps your relationship is complicated, or perhaps not. Nevertheless, you want to recognise the wonderful mum she is on this day. 

Jewellery is a little luxury you can enjoy every day and there are some habits you can get into to help keep it looking beautiful.
Your favourite Desiderate pieces are special to you and we love that you enjoy them. Use these tips to keep it looking like you just bought it!

Here are some tips on how to keep your jewellery clean.

For The Mum Who Has Everything, We Have You Covered. The Mother’s Day struggles are real. As a Mum, you just hope that you get more than 5 minutes to yourself and that everyone is going to be behaved for one day of the year.

NEW! Labradorite in our Inca Collection!!!

Did you know that it has been a custom to mark Easter with a new outfit since at least the 1500’s?
This witty 18th century verse reflects that custom.

“At Easter let your clothes be new
Or else be sure you will it rue”

What makes hoop earrings so appealing? Well, for starters, they’re easy to pair with almost anything, from peasant blouses to maxi dresses to slinky numbers. You can even wear a pair with your swimmers while chilling at the beach! This is one of those cases where size does matter, though. Plan on wearing your shoulder-sweeping hoops with dresses; medium-sized ones go great with every day looks or off-the-shoulder tops. Opt for smaller hoops if you’re also planning on wearing a headband and sunnies.
Now this classic accessory is making a comeback (or never left, for many of us), you’ll need to pick up a fresh pair. We encourage you to think outside the circle and choose hoops boasting features like pearls and tassels, interesting textures, spikes, colours and more.

Desiderate's Christmas Collection features amazing bangles with pearls and tassels, earrings with hoops, pearls and tassels, stunning pendants with Sea Pearls in different hues and beautiful pearl and silver rings.
