For the past 10 days here in the Cosmopolitan UK offices, we've been stuck in somewhat of a cycle. It starts with collectively discussing the previous night's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! episode, going home at the end of the day to watch the latest ep, before returning to the office the next day to discuss again. And on and on it will go until the series draws to a close, probably.
So far, discussions have centred around the trial we'd no doubt smash (obvs), the trial you couldn't pay us enough to participate in and GK Barry's accessory game. Yep, you may have noticed GK's – whose real name is Grace Keeling, FYI – personalised necklace peeking out of the collar of her navy campmate tee.
Well, it turns out the gold nameplate design is from the podcast host and TikToker's new collaboration with one of our fave affordable jewellery brands, Abbott Lyon.
Having been appointed as a brand ambassador for the jewellery label, GK has released a Pavé Choker and Monogram collection filled with bold statement pieces including chunky chain necklaces, thick embellished cuff bangles and matching wide rings. And, as Abbott Lyon is well known for, there is the option to personalise all of the designs in the GK Barry collection.
Before entering the jungle, she said of the collaboration, “I’ve poured my heart into this collection because I wanted to create something fun that also helps you show them you care. Personalisation is everything to me – it’s the ultimate way to express yourself. Each piece can be customised with initials because let’s be real, we’re all iconic, and jewellery should be too!”
Everyone's clicking on...
As for which piece is GK's favourite? If her jungle stint is anything to go by, it seems to be the Signature Name Necklace in gold. GK has personalised hers to read ‘eyelashes’, believed to be in reference to a codeword coined with her girlfriend, Ella Rutherford. Too cute!
Admittedly more delicate than the other pieces included in the collection, there really is something for everyone. But don't just take our word for it, shop our favourite pieces from GK Barry's Abbott Lyon collaboration below.
And the best part? GK Barry's edit is included in Abbott Lyon's Black Friday offering, giving you 35% off with the code Black35 or snap up two for the price of one with the code 2FOR1. So many deals to be had! Happy shopping.
