Instagram has made discovering new brands as easy as making a cup of tea. Fashion editors use social media to scout for smaller labels to share with their readers and, admittedly, adorn themselves (even better than having the latest 'it' item, is having something utterly fabulous that nobody else does - yet).
When it comes to jewellery, Instagram has become a treasure trove of under-the-radar names offering everything from chunky gold chains to friendship bracelets and pearl earrings. The swoon appeal is as big as the thrill of discovering something new.
Many of these small jewellery brands have humble beginnings; they're independently backed or even started life is a designer's spare bedroom or kitchen table. When we're all looking to shop more consciously, it feels good to be supporting small labels whilst also purchasing something lovely.

British designer Roxanne First meanwhile has become a certified fashion editor favourite. Her cool-girl collection of diamonds and precious crystals, are the modern jewellery lovers dream. Look to her recently launched Ear Code for a lesson in layering up your ear stack!

Likewise, NY name Brinker and Eliza is a mother and daughter duo designing gorgeous jewellery like nostalgic heart drop earrings, charm bracelets and pearl pieces that are guaranteed to put a smile on your face (Leandra 'Man Repeller' Medine is a fan).
