@annarvitielloWhen it comes to the best jewellery brands, there is so much choice that it can be quite an overwhelming category to shop from. Whether big and bold or small and dainty, the options are endless. As a fashion editor, one of my most-asked questions is probably "Where can I find a fabulous piece of jewellery?" As a huge jewellery fan, I'm more than up for sharing my latest obsessions and fantasy splurges from brands like Seb Brown or Cece Jewellery.
Once you start wearing jewellery in a more obsessive way, it becomes part of your everyday look, and you can't be without it. I've been known to run back home and put my favourite signet ring on or my beloved hoop earrings in. So what is it about jewellery that makes you feel positively naked if you're not wearing it? It can elevate the most basic of outfits. Whether you do that with a handful of colourful cocktail rings or a pared-back pearl choker, I happen to think your outfit isn't complete without a smattering of jewels.
Influencers like Anna Vitiello and Maria Jacobs are big fans of jewellery and I often find myself pausing over their accounts. Vitiello often goes for a stack of gold jewellery, while Jacobs is all over the more-is-more approach, combining all sorts of aesthetics.

@lesfevrediaryWhere to start when it comes to looking for the best jewellery brands? Don't fear. I've researched far and wide on the internet, and I've found lockets, statement rings, made-to-order earrings and colourful beaded bracelets all with a 2024 spin. Keep scrolling for my edit of the 26 most sought-after jewellery brands out there.
1. ALIGHIERI
A best-seller from Alighieri, often imitated but never beaten.
2. MISSOMA
There's so much to love about the Lucy Williams x Missoma collab, but this signet ring is top of the list.
3. THOMAS SABO
Thomas Sabo is a reliable source for chic gifts (for myself and others!).
4. ALEX MONROE
The designer is famous for his Bumblebee necklace, but there's much more to his collection.
5. CRYSTAL HAZE JEWELLERY
Each piece by Crystal Haze Jewellery is brimming with fun.
6. COMPLETEDWORKS
Completedworks designs are sculptures in themselves.
7. HERMINA ATHENS
8. KIMAI
Label of the moment Kimai's collection is full of lab-grown diamonds like these studs.
9. FRANCESCA VILLA
If you're looking for a conversation starter, this is it.
10. ANNI LU
My go-to brand for when I want all the holiday vibes.
11. MATILDE
Matilde uses the finest recycled 14kt gold and lab grown diamonds as a sustainable alternative and these striking studs are so unique.
12. ILEANA MAKRI
Such a beautiful and unusual colour.
13. ASTRID & MIYU
Everything Astrid & Miyu does looks so expensive.
14. LOVENESS LEE
This is a new brand that has been on my radar for a while. These gold hoops are a great everyday size.
15. ROXANNE FIRST
I love how these earrings add an instant pop of joy to my look.
16. MARIA TASH
Tiny but they pack a punch. Plus, every time I wear my Maria Tash studs, I get asked where are they from.
17. BRENT NEALE
The quirky chilli design is everything. Expect to see more of Brent Neale.
18. MESSIKA
Yes, it's expensive, but this ring is the kind that will last and be loved forever and can even be passed down to another family member.
19. ALMASIKA
Almasika's beautiful jewellery is the perfect piece to help celebrate or commemorate a special occasion. I particularly love this delicate diamond necklace, which I know I'd love and wear forever.
20. POND
London based brand Pond is one to watch, a made-to-order concept using broken jewels to create something new. Sustainable and chic.
21. SORU
I love what the two sisters behind the brand Soru make. I'm in good company, too, as everyone from Rita Ora to HRH the Duchess of Cambridge is a fan.
22. KITTY JOYAS
23. CULT OF YOUTH
A working locket that holds two photos available in gold-plated or sterling silver. Obsessed.
24. & OTHER STORIES
One of the best places to buy jewellery on the high street, & Other Stories never disappoints.
25. MIZUKI
For beautiful pearl pieces, look no further than Mizuki. This gorgeous anklet is perfect for summer but there are also some sensational earrings that were made to be worn on your wedding day or at a hen do, too!
26. L'ATELIER NAWBAR
For a real investment in your jewellery collection, consider L'Atelier Nawbar. These stunning earrings feature mother-of-pearl details, a glimmer of diamonds and are made from 18-karat gold.
