Let customers speak for us
The earrings are AMAZING! I can't recommend them enough! I love the fact I can subtly say how I feel but others can't tell unless they're close or I specifically tell them. It feels like a little rebellion that I love. Best bit is that even if I'm wearing rubbish clothes and no make up I still feel really "put together" by wearing this with the necklace. This set is amazing even if you only have one bit..I also love how they catch the light and sparkle!
So amazing and has been over a couple of orders from both me and my sister. Couldn't recommend more!

I already have two of Sarah's wonderful necklaces and three brooches (two of which were gifts from friends, who know how much I love Wear and Resist!), so I was delighted when this new sweary piece arrived, with the usual high quality and beautiful design. I especially love the way in which all necklaces can be fastened at three different points so it's possible to vary the length depending on the neckline of an outfit; so simple but so helpful. Knowing that I'm giving money to a small business which passes a percentage of profits on to women's charities is always a bonus #persisterhood.
Great necklace - perfect gift and looks so pretty even before you read the message. Arrived very quickly too
This was a gift for my french speaking mother and she loves it. Just suits her general attitude to life and makes me laugh when she wears it. Beautifully made, very classy and I will certainly be borrowing it from time time!
"no coward soul is mine"... Thank you for reminding me Sarah... I've worn this nearly every day since I got it through the post. Thank you for helping me through some tough weeks - you, and your art, are bloody brilliant!
I had my eye on these for ages before finally purchasing them and I am so glad I got them.
My Grandma's favourite flowers were snopdrops. After my Grandpa died she had to move house. My mum and I went with her looking at houses trying to imagine her living alone in them.
At one little cottage snowdrops we're breaking through the tarmac outside the garden gate.
She lived happily in there for many years until she died.
She and the snowflakes looked small and delicate but both are surprisingly tough
I bought this for my sister who dared to leave her job for pastures new. I hope she will pin it to something and remember how free she is.
Easy to navigate website. Clear pricing. No hidden costs. Supporting great charities. Quick postage. Great product. What is not to love!
Super sparkly, eye catching, and I get comments on it everywhere.
I tell people I am as woke as a fairy
The website is always really easy to use. I liked that I could request to get items delivered in the same box - excellent way to save on costs and resources.
This is a fab bracelet - I love this kind of fastener as I have issues with fine motor control in my hands, and this is really easy to put on and adjust. I can confirm the text does indeed glow in the dark!
