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.

great bracelet for my wife, arrived well packaged and in good time! Well made and a lovely design from a great company who make great things!
I love all of my Wear and Resist purchases but these earrings might be my favourite - absolutely adore! Beautiful icy blue colour with sparkle at the end, they made my ears feel special and dressed up!
I love this necklace so much! Will definitely buy more jewellery in the future! Thank you x
I bought this in glittery silver for my sister a she is not backwards at coming forward and it was a total hit! Glittery. Sweary. To the point. Perfect
I loved these earrings so much that I bought all 3 colours!
They are very light to wear and they attract lots of compliments! Totally fab!
Yet another great purchase from one of my favourite independent businesses. I live the colours in this item & the message.
I bought this for myself and I love it (and what wear and resist is all about) It looks good with my other jewellery , it’s nice quality ,the swapable charms are a great idea and I liked it so much I got the necklace too!
I had been looking at getting this necklace for a while, seeing all that is happening with women's rights. It's such a unique and creative design, like wearing art, as well as making a statement.
These look even better than the photos. So sparkly and beautifully different. Comfortable to wear too.
I have received mine. It has a great place in my Westminster office. Its important to register Women's involvement in politics, and this is delightful. Highly recommended.
My third piece from Wear and Resist - check out the sweary necklaces! I don't usually 'do' brooches, but love this one. Good secure pin, light enough to wear on any fabric, and a fantastic tribute to Lady Hale. Currently sparkling on a vintage green velvet blazer :) Highly recommended.
I bought these earrings for my sister who is a lover of walking in bluebell woodlands - she adored them.
Such a beautiful design and so beautifully made.
Thank you :)
Great service, it felt personal and attentive...great card ...looking forward to giving to my bestie!
Thank you Sarah, I love my necklace. Great ideology and fabulous product
Couldn't agree more with the sentiment, and as a last second gift for my sister I didn't expect to get it until after her birthday - but it was posted super fast, I couldn't believe it - thank you (you saved me!). I love the hot pink version, it looks amazing. A brilliant gift for my kick-ass sister.
