Shopping season is in full swing for the holidays, and no matter what special occasion you may celebrate this month, you're bound to find yourself looking for a great gift that will express your caring without breaking the bank. Jewellery is one of the most popular choices in any gift-giving season, and although jewellery may traditionally call to mind sky-high prices that seem well outside the bounds of sensible shopping this year, costume jewellery allows you to delight the special people in your life with sparkling, gleaming, gorgeous things for every taste at prices that are easy on your financial well-being. There are plenty of classic jewellery options from which to choose, but some of the more popular costume jewellery gifts are proving to be those that incorporate modern innovations and even technology.

The charm evokes a wonderful light-heartedness that is sure to add a bounce to anyone's step. The flash drive jewellery key ring is finished off with an attractive rhodium chain and a set of whimsical round baby blue beads, complimenting the hues of the crystals. An easy-to-use keyring and lobster clasp make the jewellery versatile for quick switches between key sets, bags and purses, or anywhere else you'd like to keep your data.

Find Your Way to the Perfect Bangle Bracelet

Most jewellery pieces aren't only a pleasure to look at, but are a pleasure to wear, as well. From the satisfying weight of a pair of earrings to the subtle feel of metal slipping over the collarbone while wearing a necklace, putting on a piece of costume jewellery may work wonders for the eyes of those in local view, but the tactile sense of the wearer is also highly engaged. Bangle bracelets constitute some of the most intriguing and enjoyable jewellery items available. With typically wide cuffs that can slide around the wrists and forearms, or be moved up a bit to settle firmly in place, bangle bracelets bestow a unique tactile feeling while they show off their aesthetic best. At Janeo, we've greatly expanded our bangle bracelet selection, in part thanks to reflection about the wonderful feel of these classic costume jewellery staples. But much of the credit goes to the discovery of the collection pieces themselves, and when we saw these labyrinthine bangle bracelets, we couldn't help but add them to our offerings.



The idea of the geometric maze has delighted and entertained people around the world for thousands of years. Grown into hedges or carefully applied to the floor of a church, labyringths have traditionally been appreciated for their ability to challenge the mind, guide the spirit, and generate smiles wherever they're found. It's not too often that the chance comes along to personalize something like a maze, and the opportunity to wear one is bound to be much more rare. But costume jewellery lovers can achieve exactly that by donning a geometric bangle bracelet from our collection.
Our bracelets begin with a strong foundation of gleaming metal. In either rhodium or gold plating, the two and a quarter centimetre wide cuffs stretch an ample six centimeters in diameter, allowing for fluid motion over the wrists. The beautiful polish and striking smoothness of the finishes are elements that become quickly contrasted, however, by the beginning of precise geometric lines, following an unknown course across the surface of the bracelet to reach the other side. The precise ornate pattern plays out against the backdrop of any number of vibrant colors in enamel, highlighting the brightness of the metal lines and adding visual interest and pleasure with rich and bold tones.



A bracelet that is sure to make a memorable jewellery gift or ear a top spot in any costume jewellery wardrobe, this bangle –in any one of its many manifestations-- has been dreamed up, crated, and offered with the greatest delights of the eyes and the spirit in mind. We offer this wonderfully wearable and engaging bracelet in a variety of color combinations: rhodium-plated costume bangle with turquoise or juicy pink enamel, or 14k gold bracelet with moody eggplant, exuberant orange, or classic white enamel. Trace your way to your favorite shades and find bliss for your wrist with one of our new bangles.

Polly Want a (Really Fashionable) Cracker?

One of our favorite trends in costume jewelleryjewelry and fashion accessories that has been popping up everywhere from couture magazines to the streets of the world's most style-conscious cities is the bag charm. Purses, totes, carry-alls, clutches...there's a world of design and detail for handbags out there, but we're rarely if ever able to customize our bags with something that makes a statement about our individual personality or taste. That is, until the bag charm came along. Thousands upon thousands of styles are on the market, from the simple and chic to the absolutely outrageous, in materials that span the metals, minerals, and specialty textiles. Here at Janeo we've built up an impressive collection of bag charms, and one of our favorite categories is comprised of pieces that take on all the appeal of the bag charm while adding an incredible versatility. Our combination bag charms, key rings, and chain necklaces let you decide if you'd like to string your charm around your handbag, as a colorful anchor for your keys, or as an exciting jewelry piece for the neck. And it's hard to beat our special, limited edition parrot bag charm when it comes to pairing versatility with fun.



Starting with a base of cotton-candy pink enamel, the parrot exudes the beauty and colorful burst of the tropics, suggesting the hot rhythms of jungle dances and tall cocktails with bits of exotic fruits and tiny umbrellas skirting the rim. The parrot's body is encrusted with tiny round clear Swarovski crystals, creating a complex and eye-catching sparkle that adds an overall feeling of whimsy to the piece. The parrot's pretty wing is a cascade of vivid colors in enamel, from deep ruby red to ocean blue, emerald green to an appealing lemon-lime at the very tip. The stylized wing is sure to send your fashion sense aflutter and bring out your inner songbird. The perfect finishing touches are all present, with a cute, pointed golden beak, an inquisitive eye, and a darling little leg perched on a silver stick.
Measuring five and a half by two centimeters, the costume jewellery parrot is just the right size for wearing around the neck as a neck chain or dangling from a bag or keyring. Far from being your average pirate's feathered henchman, this sweet parrot is all about brilliance and the sheer enjoyment of showing your true colors. The piece makes a superb conversation starter and is a favorite jewellery accessory for outdoor excursions from travel to beach trips to casual shopping jaunts on the boardwalk. If you've been looking for something different yet delightful to add to your costume jewelry collection, this is just the item for you.



For use as a bag charm, the parrot comes with a standard keyring with a lobster clasp. A thirty-five centimeter silver-toned chain is included for wearing as a necklace. This extraordinary Swarovski crystal costume jewelry piece is a limited stock item; take advantage of its great style and accessible price before it's extinct!

Sweet Sophistication: Jewellery Accessories for Purse and Key

It's not every day that a new trend is born, and even those that make it rarely live to see themselves pass their first or second birthday. Rarer still is the birth of an entire category of fashion accessory; in a world steeped in tradition yet fiercely competitive with many designers vying for immortality through wearable art, establishing a type of accessory can be an elusive and all the more celebratory event. Two hot costume jewellery accessory types that are showing no signs of running out of steam are the bag charm and the key ring.
Easy to wear, match, and make great style sets with, these items have been popping up from coast to coast over the past handful of years, and excel when it comes to displaying their costume jewellery roots. Bag charms make for popular gifts --whether they're intended for a loved one or slipped right back out of the box as a personal treat-- and can update any purse with a modern fashion-forward look. Slung over a strap or dangling from a zipper pull, jewelry bag charms have become almost as important as the bags themselves.


The cool greens and vibrant blues in this butterfly bag charm recall the lush flora and fauna of a tropical paradise, all dressed up in sparkling clear Swarovski crystals. Quality hardware and swirling enamel combine with the crystals to evoke your trend-setting style, and make matching options a breeze.


Looking for a little sophistication to add to your handbag? Achieve it with a silver diamante butterfly bag charm, featuring delicate and eye-catching filigree work offset by sparkling Swarovski crystals and a bedazzling central stone. Fluid and fashionable charms such as this fluttering piece can serve double-duty as a quick aesthetic pick-me up when stuck at the office or in traffic.


Of course, all this extra-curricular decoration might make your keys a bit jealous. Give them a treat they deserve with fun and funky strawberries dangling from a silver or gold chain keyring. Sweet and stylish without cluttering up your clutch of keys, this ring features picture-perfect enamel berries topped with a bit of cream and letting their message be known: “I love you!”


For a key set with classic style, smooth and swirly art deco designs make a nice subtle statement. Creamy purple tones drip with enamel shapes and jewels in this elegant keyring. After all, costume jewellery isn't always just about having fun with sparkle and saving a bunch of cash while you're at it. Well, those -are- pretty important components. But finding your personal style flourish in costume jewelery creativity is at the heart of every new devotee.
