Designer Profile: Disney Couture

We've been stocking the Disney Couture collection on Sparklecandy.co.uk since we founded the website. Created in LA, this collection combines wishful Disney thinking and timeless design to create a range of jewellery so gorgeous it would make even Tinkerbell cry tears of joy.

The range already has a large following stateside, and is starting to make big ripples in the UK market. Trend-setters please note – now is the time to jump on the Disney Couture bandwagon! With muses such as Jasmine, Ariel and Alice in Wonderland – we think you'll find their pieces pretty hard to resist.

This collection often comes to mind when we're asked to recommend a gift for a sixteenth, eighteenth or twenty-first birthday present, as there is something magical about all their pieces. Particularly special is the “Believing is just the beginning” locket, which costs just £39. Unsurprisingly – this is one of the bestsellers in the Disney Couture range. Fill it with a tiny love letter, a lock of your true love's hair or even a picture of your favourite Disney princess!


Another big seller is this gold bangle engraved with the line “a dream is a wish your heart makes.” It's decorated with pink crystal and enamel charms and at £35 it's perfect for little princesses and big princesses alike.



If you're looking for something a little more modern – then you might be quite taken by the Alice in Wonderland inspired pieces in the Disney Couture collection. The Alice pieces have a wonderfully quirky Tim Burton feel to them so you can rest assured that you won't be caught wearing the same earrings as your best mate.

For a piece of arm candy that Alice would be especially proud off, have a look at this charm bracelet. Adorned with mini playing cards, pawns, animals and keys (among others) there's something to delight even the most sensible of souls. Pick up this bracelet for £105.


If you're a fan of Johnny Depp (who isn't?) you might fancy investing in this mad-hatter inspired necklace and pendant. Not only is it in the sale at £14.50 (down from £29) – it's also the best way that we can think of to keep Mr Depp himself close to our hearts!
