The Trick or Treat Edit:
Something Wicked

Darling All

Soul II Soul nailed that early September feeling, post summer, with Back to Life as it certainly was “back to reality, back to the here and now, yeah!” For us, it was a bit of a whirl wind month replete with the Jewellery Cut Live Show during London Fashion Week where over a thousand magpies swooped into Café Royal’s Pompadour Room to feast their beady eyes on sparklers!! What we took away from the capital’s catwalks was a focused fusion, a chronological mash up of the last five decades. So, with back to school and Halloween in mind, whilst taking the runway’s directive to GO BOLD WITH GOLD, we are lifting the lid on some devilishly decade (nt) offerings!

Click to be wise like Athena (1960s Necklace)!

Is it sorcery or is it maths? Does it go Boo and Twit Twoo? Goddess like, do pounce on this sinfully saucy Sixties Owl! Completely bewitching!

Click for mathematical prowess (1970s Pendant)!

For those mathematical geniuses out there this 1977 pendant really will help you get that spreadsheet in order (none of that filling in with a calculator in case your cells don’t add up!) and if you languished in bottom set Maths – rub the pendant and a genie might appear!

Click for ‘Riva-Retreata’ Sovereign Glamour (1980s Necklace)!

Segueing across Fibonacci style – channel some numismatic glamour whilst basking in Autumnal sun, having skilfully avoided all Trick or Treaters!! If the pink pages are advocating Sovereigns: jump aboard your Riva - you shall certainly be coining it in the style stakes!

Click to hang with Besoms or Bosoms (1990s Necklace)!

If PJs (private jets) and pumpkins in windows are your thing, we couldn’t believe our luck when this witch flew in fresh, on her besom! Blooming Spooktacular! Waggle it at any small, whilst citing that bad behaviour will result in being turned into an orange My Little Pony! Goes for husbands too!

Click to become a glamour-puss (early 2000s Pendant)!

We all know that on Halloween, witch’s companions are not only owls but cats too! Admittedly this cat looks like its been raving it up in Ibiza, but we shall go with the feline good vibe!!! To be worn on a long gold chain, pawsitively chic and so much better than a whistle!

So, there you have it our guide to an edit compiled with treats – no tricks! No mathematical problems for you to solve, just examples of fifty years of the gold standard: resolutely retro yet quietly modern! Go on we dare you: layer the witch, the cat and owl together!! WICKED!!!!

With love from Emma and the Baroque Rocks Team

PS On Halloween we advise you to turn off all the lights and take a restful candle lit bath! Play “Back to Life” exceedingly loudly so you drown out any Trick or Treaters and ensure the bass is pumping – this way your bath shall feel like a jacuzzi!!! Bliss!!
