A collection designed in collaboration with Mary Beard to celebrate her book, Women & Power
Power – one word to denote physical strength, force, the capacity to rule and influence others, electrical energy and the ability to shock
Women & Power
In 2018 I was asked to create a Power necklace to celebrate Mary Beard's best-selling and important book Women & Power. Power is now also available as a brooch and statement earrings.
Mary Beard’s manifesto Women & Power (published by Profile Books) considers the public voice of women and asks: if women aren't perceived to be within the structures of power, isn't it power that we need to redefine?
To purchase the book:
Hardback: Hive, Waterstones and Amazon
Paperback: Hive, Waterstones and Amazon.

Gorgeous sparkly hoops! I love these earrings. This is my second purchase from wear and resist and I the quality has been great. They are original and beautiful. What more can you ask for?!
Impactful and fierce. This necklace is so cool and impactful. I love the sparkliness of it and that the chain adjustment. Perfect size. Gives a strong powerful message.

Let customers speak for us
As always with this company, I am thrilled with what Sarah makes. These earrings are really pretty and really well-made. They are easy to wear - not just around Valentine’s Day.
They were dispatched very quickly (as always) and the packaging is good.
This is the third set that I have bought and had two more things bought for me and I have never been disappointed!
And there’s more that I want!!
Absolutely love my sheriff badge! Thank you so much
My new statement necklace, I wont go out without it on. Beautiful, bold and brilliant. Really impressed with the quality and it adds a real flare to my outfits. Couldn't be happier that I came across this store. I need mooore!!!!
Fab brooch that I’ve put on my denim jacket, gutted it is still so cold out but as soon as a few degrees warmer ( pretty sure climate crisis will sort that one) it’ll be out and about for everyone to see 😁
Love this necklace. It's fun and empowering and gets noticed. Perfect for being 50 later this year and my 'croning ceremony'.
Gorgeous necklace 😍 present to my poet self! Also the fresh out of fucks necklace. Couldn't resist. Thanks Sarah!
I love my new necklace, I love that it reflects my attitude to life.
Practical stuff - quick delivery, great communication and beautifully made.
Another fantastic necklace to add to my ever growing collection. Love the zing of the electric green colour. The staff in my favourite cafe were equally impressed by it - they love seeing the new designs almost as much as I do!
My first buy and I'm addicted! My vest friend had just quoted to me 'she couldn't find a hero so she became one' and I stumbled upon this glorious creation.
Really bold, sturdy and excellently made. Beautiful customer service, too.
Every identifying female needs one!
What a fab wee product, right down to the lighting bolt on the ebd of the chain. Beautifully packaged and efficient delivery too.
I love this fun necklace. I've had so many compliments on it already. It gives me a confidence boost when I wear it! So fun.
I love my necklace. It fills me with joy and makes me chuckle whenever I think about it
My Hope necklace is so beautiful and I've received many compliments when wearing it. It is well made, arrived on time and I can adjust the chain length to suit whatever top I'm wearing. It's perfect!
I have had a tough work year, feeling like I'm not good enough and questioning my professional identity because others have.
So I bought this beauty because of it's multiple meanings. I am enough, I've had enough of being questioned, this needs to stop- enough now.
I love it!
