January is generally a time for moderation and abstinence.

But although you may be avoiding sugary snacks you can always spoil yourself with a pair of sweet little studs or a deliciously decorative set of drop earrings.

With so many amazing and creative designs to choose from – be it coiling serpents, ethereal Buddhas or encrusted pins, there is something for every taste, and every budget.

And with Valentine’s Day just a few weeks away you may want to start dropping hints now...
