The Essence of Pandora

Yesterday the jewellery brand Pandora released its exciting newest collection – Essence. 

Don’t worry – this isn’t a sponsored post – although I can’t say I wouldn’t accept the freebie! 

I already have the traditional Pandora charm bracelet, loads of the stacking rings, and some earrings too – I am a BIG fan! (Apologies about the terrible pictures in this blog post - taken from the catalogue!)

“PANDORA’S Essence collection is an emotional expression of inner values. It connects us to who we are, and marks a deeper connection to and a profound understanding of the multi-faceted components that make up a woman and her life”.

For those of you who already know Pandora (let’s face it, who doesn’t?! ), you will know that the main product they sell is bracelet and charms – meant to represent and celebrate the special moments in a woman’s lifetime. Pandora believe that women are now looking towards products which have more soul; something which represents who they are – and they have tried to capture this with Essence.

The new charms are smaller and more streamlined than the traditional ones, and have a special silicone core which means that they stay put on the bracelet without the need for clips. Most of the charms are made from genuine gemstones too – so the collection feels more elegant than the traditional one. 

The bracelet is smaller and more delicate too. I love my Pandora bracelet but it is SO HEAVY now that it’s full – so I can see me wearing the Essence bracelet more during the day and saving my other bracelet for special occasions and evenings out.

I went to my local shop yesterday and spent ages looking at all the new charms and finding out about the emotions which they represent. I wanted to pick something which was truly meaningful to me and my life – something which expresses who I am, and what motivates me at the moment.

After lots of deliberation I chose the HOPE charm – a solid charm made of milky quartz and sterling silver.

“Make a wish for the best and dreams are already within your reach”. 

I have mentioned before about jealousy and how sometimes I can struggle to see the bigger picture in life. Everytime I see this charm on my bracelet I want it to remind me how lucky I am, and even though things can be hard at the moment with a new house and a new set of responsibilities, I think it will encourage me to keep hope that things will be easier in the future.

I have big dreams for my career and family life, and I know that the only thing which will help me to achieve them is to keep positivity and hope.

Have you seen the newest collection  - what do you think? Which one represents the Essence of you?

Until next time,
