The new season of Emily in Paris has been and gone and we're still reeling from all the drama, love triangles and fabulous outfits. We're also still trying to reconcile with the idea that Gabriel and Alfie won't be on our screens for another year. There's a lot to take in.
Apart from chic designer-clad outfits (namely from Miu Miu and Louis Vuitton) and interesting (although sometimes questionable) headgear, this season of Emily In Paris has not only influenced our beauty choices but our accessory choices, too. And - it might not be what you expect.
While the popular TV show is known for unapologetically loud, often garish, looks, the most popular accessory this season was anything but. The item in question? None other than the humble initial necklace. Emily was spotted wearing her own initial necklace with the letter E in multiple episodes, which according to Pandora, has caused a surge in on-site searches for Alphabet Charms, as well as a 55% hike in searches for initial bracelets.
Experts at Pandora said: 'Initial jewellery has become an increasingly popular trend, more so since the third season of Emily in Paris was released in December where we noticed Emily's character to be wearing her own Initial necklace. Since then, we have noticed a growing demand, including a 42% increase in searches on our website for Alphabet charms.'
Pandora predicts that personalisation will be big this year, saying, 'Personalising our jewellery collection looks to be a strong trend for 2023, and we may even see new styles emerging.'
So, if you're eager to take a leaf out of Emily's book, and jump on the personalisation trend, we've found the best initial necklaces, as well as the best initial jewellery to shop now.
