Astrid & Miyu to open Cosmic Airstream pop-ups
British jewellery brand Astrid & Miyu, which is known for its customisable and stackable designs, is prepping for the launch of its first-ever Cosmic Airstream trailer pop-up, what it says is 'a unique pop-up experience celebrating the arrival of the new Birthstone Collection and expanding charms category'. It's happening in London and Manchester with the mobile store appearing at the Battersea Power Station mall later this week and at the weekend (from 5-8 June) and at Spinningfields Manchester seven days later (12-15 June). The pop-ups will offer 'an immersive, personal experience designed to help customers connect with their jewellery in meaningful and memorable ways'. What that means in practice includes birth chart readings, astral stacking sessions, and charm mixing and matching, with the Cosmic Airstream described as 'the ultimate personalisation suite'. Astrid & Miyu is also partnering with Gooey to provide bespoke cream treats throughout the two events. The direct-to-consumer jewellery brand was set up in 2012 by CEO Connie Nam from her flat in London's Notting Hill after she 'struggled to find contemporary jewellery at affordable prices'. Earlier this year it opened its first store in Manchester with a standalone in the Royal Exchange. This was prompted by 'significant customer demand', it said. Last autumn it opened a significantly upsized flagship in London's Soho at 5-7 Foubert's Place.

Taylor Swift just rewore this initial necklace at the Super Bowl – shop these similar styles now
All eyes were on Taylor Swift as she arrived at the 2025 Super Bowl. Cheering on her boyfriend, the Kansas City Chief star Travis Kelce, as his team took on the Philadelphia Eagles, the singer was seen in a box alongside her mother, the Haim sisters and Ice Spice. For the sporting occasion, Swift wore a white blazer, tank top, sparkly denim shorts and tall white boots. But it was her choice of jewellery that stole the spotlight. Repurposing the initial 'T' charm that she wore as a thigh chain to the Grammys last week, the singer plumped for the bespoke piece again, this time choosing to wear it on a pendant chain for the Super Bowl. Swift's 'T' necklace is a Lorraine Schwartz piece, which was designed in collaboration with the jewellery brand ahead of the singer's red carpet appearance. Fans of the star have debated if she was referencing the Tortured Poets Department song, Guilty as Sin, with her Grammys look, which saw the ruby-jewelled pendant worn on a thigh chain and styled with a matching ruby red Vivienne Westwood dress. As for the hidden meaning behind Swift's Super Bowl look, some have said the 'T' on the necklace is in fact for Travis. In her 2017 song Call It What You Want, Swift sings: 'I want to wear his initial / on a chain 'round my neck, chain 'round my neck / Not because he owns me / But 'cause he really knows me.' Whether it's in homage to herself or her boyfriend, Swift's jewellery choice nods to the timeless appeal of personalised pieces – think Carrie Bradshaw's signature necklace or Kate Middleton's monogrammed pieces. So, whether you're channeling Swift at the Super Bowl and Grammys or searching for an Eleventh-hour Valentine's Day gift, these are the initial pieces to shop from Missoma, Astrid & Miyu and more. Missoma's bestselling molten initial pendant is a contemporary twist on the classic jewellery style. The delicate gold chain is complete with your choice of letter in a bespoke hand-drawn font. Designed with 18 carat gold plated vermeil on recycled sterling silver, the adjustable chain lends it to layering and stacking with other pieces. Mejuri's initial necklace has a vintage feel thanks to the accordion pattern. Handcrafted from 18 carat gold vermeil, each pendant comes with a 20-22in dainty gold chain. The generous size of the charm makes it a real statement piece, à la Swift's style. This bold style from Astrid & Miyu is available in 18 carat gold plated recycled sterling silver or rhodium plated recycled sterling silver. The large charm contrasts the delicate chain, with the letter characterised by its fluid, unique shape.
