30+ of the best personalised necklaces to shop

Initials, birthstones, zodiac signs...✨

By and

Personalised necklaces are a nostalgic piece of everyday jewellery that will *never* go out of style. From engraved lockets, a birthstone necklace, charm designs, or the initials of someone you love, there's just something comforting about accessorising with something that represents your personal history. Not to mention the fact your necklace being unique to you makes it feel extra special.

Besides, wearing personalised jewellery gives main character energy, we don't make the rules. Carrie Bradshaw's nameplate necklace had a starring role in Sex and The City, and who could forget Regina George's initial ‘R’ pendant in Mean Girls? Elle Woods wore a silver engraved Tiffany necklace in Legally Blonde, and... Well, you get the picture. This trend comes silver screen approved.

Luckily, the high street has plenty of options available to shop rn courtesy of almost all of our favourite jewellery brands, from Mejuri to Joma Jewellery. We told you it's always en vogue. So, if you're shopping for a gift for a loved one (or a well-deserved payday treat for yourself), the Cosmopolitan fashion desk has put together a definitive guide to the best personalised necklaces to buy now and cherish forever.

Keep scrolling and happy shopping!
