I am not a Pandora girl. It’s over the piece, excited, and looks tacky and neat. I am also a gold girl, and they usually only do silver. One thing I do experience around rings is the green ring. When rings turn fingers green, it's either because of a chemical reaction between acids in your skin and the metal of the ring or because of a reaction between another substance on your hand (such as a lotion) and the metal of the ring.
Oliver Bonas
It was more expensive, but my mum and I have layered necklaces from Oliver Bonas that have lasted and have not lost their colour. They have a range of more affordable products, including those behind the cabinet glass. They used to have a student discount and possibly still do.

And other stories
I have got lost rings from here. Most are affordable, which is unusual for the brand, but they are all pretty and do not tarnish as quickly as other brands. They have unique designs, come in multiple sizes, and most likely have all sizes out. I personally always go to the shop between Covent Garden and Leicester Square. They also have beautiful hair accessories. My favourite claw grips are from there; they are metal and sturdy and hold up my thick hair, which is always a bonus.

Astrid & Miyu
They have an outlet store in Bicester village that you can visit. This is more mid-range at 50-100 pounds, which is great for gifts that won't break the bank. They have pop shops nationwide, from Edinburgh to Leeds and Glasgow. There is one on Chelsea's iconic Kings Road. In the past, they have also released an advent calendar with various options. I liked some of their products but have yet to buy some, but they will probably be on my Christmas list this year. You can get your pets a matching tag as well. Their sizing is done by letters, but they also have an inside diameter to measure.

Monica Vinader
They do have an outlet store at Bicester Village that you can visit. Which did have a range of gold and silver; however, nothing impressed me, and sometimes the outlet discount is not on everything. There is also a shop in Shepherds Bush Westfield if you want the latest ranges and all the possible sizes. There are some beautiful collections. One hopes with the price tag attached, they are good. Even my mother knows about the brand.

Missoma
Missoma has stores nationwide, including one in Covent Gardens—this brand you might have seen on Instagram ads. I have read a lot about this brand from influencers like Lily Pebbles, who have been raving about this brand for years. They also come up on my Instagram Allozyme a lot, and I am constantly screenshotting and hoping to get
