The X Factor - Live Show Starts Tonight!


The X factor Live Show Starts tonight and we are sure to see tears of joy and tears of sorrow from the finalists. Last week we watched the intense final additions that took place at the judge’s homes, whilst watching this we saw Rebecca Ferguson raise her hands to cover her mouth whilst overwhelmed by the news from Cheryl that she was indeed a finalist she was wearing a large horse ring and to our surprise it was the same as one of our brooches but in the style of a ring, the large rainbow horse brooch has been an extremely popular line at Acosta Jewellery for the last 2 years and nearly all our Christmas Stock has sold out in the last week. We are trying to re-stock before Christmas but it is unlikely, we will of course keep anyone interested up to date on this.
Also during the same show another ring which we also stock on our website was on the hand of Rebecca Ferguson during her final addition, whilst singing for Cheryl. Both the brooch and the ring are pictured above.

Ramblings about style....



Add the Feminine Touch with this Freshwater Pearl Bracelet featuring pretty Dragonfly Charms. This stretch bracelet coils around the wrist is the perfect way to add a feminine touch to an outfit effortlessly, whilst also providing a little vintage glamour!





Ramblings about style........




When buying costume jewellery or any style of jewellery it is still all about style and personal preference, for example one person may love snake bangles, but other may not even consider buying them because they simply don’t like snakes. Another example regarding personal preference would be the size of a piece of jewellery for example a large chunky resin bangle in a modern designer style would be the perfect gift for one friend but another may prefer a smaller more delicate flower bracelet. It’s all about taste and personal style but since most costume jewellery is easily affordable you can build up a collection that is unique to you.

Costume Jewellery Introduction



Costume Jewellery – why buy costume jewellery? Acosta’s answer would be why not? - At Acosta Jewellery we know style matters!

Costume jewellery has become very popular and is a must have accessory especially since it is less than a fraction of the price of diamonds, gold and platinum, and at Acosta Jewellery there is a wide range of high quality costume jewellery to suit everyone’s budget. Over the years we have become a very fashion conscious world and we all want the latest designs, styles and fashion trends, let’s face it we all want to steal the celebrity look! Jewellery was a part of ancient culture and has been around for thousands of years and yet many styles especially beaded jewellery designs may only differ slightly in the way they look and the actual material used. The replica vintage inspired costume jewellery is as much sort after as the newer modern designs and real vintage costume jewellery can cost you more than a new piece. At Acosta jewellery’s shop you can find vintage inspired jewellery pieces from the bygone era, including a vast range of brooches available to buy online. Brooches are a great way to accessorize an outfit; a brooch can be easily attached to just about anything including handbags, purses, and hair accessories and of course scarves and clothing. Brooches are usually reasonably priced and come in all shapes and sizes; they can easily help the wearer achieve a glamorous or vintage look.
