MEET LYDIA
Lydia is a self-confessed jewellery fiend and accessory queen. After co-founding GIMME in 2017, she officially took over the brand in 2023… relaunching it just weeks before giving birth to her second bubs (superwoman, right?!). Since then, she’s grown GIMME by 400% in a year!
GIMME’s mission is to deliver high-quality, classic and on-trend designs at an inclusive price point. But more than that - Lydia wants accessories to uplift you. Whether it's a claw clip or a killer earring, GIMME pieces are made to boost confidence and complete your outfit.
You’ve probably seen GIMME popping up in ELLE, Broadsheet, Mamamia. As well as worn by Aussie style icons including Holly Kingston, Leigh Campbell along with international celebs including drum roll… Katie Perry! And make sure you follow the GIMME Instagram page for the happy vibes - Lydia is so clever with her posts and videos, they are SO catchy and so fun!
MY GIMME PICKS
Here are a few GIMME goodies I wear and love, starting with the Gimme Coffee cap… this sold out wihtin days of launching, and I managed to grab one and have worn it all Summer! TAP to shop »
The LISA heart earrings are one of the best sellers! Get both the silver and gold pair as a bundle (save $20!) and hen you can mix’n’match the gold hearts on silver hoops, or vice versa… or wear them as just the hoops with no heart. The most verstaile earrings eva! TAP to shop »
TAP the video below to see how I’m wearing the LISA heart earrings:
I also have the ALLEY earrings in gold, I love how these are a smaller, easy to wear stud - but it honestly is so hard to choose there are so many gorgoeous styles, beautiful bling, and fun caps to choose from!
STYLING TIPS
Add a cap - It instantly adds personality to an outfit AND is ideal for bad hair days!
Go bold - A statement earring can do wonders for a simple outfit. Chunky shapes are making a huge come back, and are perfect to take an outfit from drab to fab!
Statement - Keep it to one statement piece for the perfect look. If you're going big with earrings, go lighter on the necklace - or vice versa. Let one piece shine!
Layered - Mix chains with pendants or pearls for a high/low look thats modern and super chic!
H&M FAB FINDS
You can hear by my reaction (and see my suprised face!) when Lydia says her grey vest and matching trouser are H&M - they are such fab finds!! I honestly thought they were high end brand, they are such a steal! I’m also a HUGE fan of H&M, you can get so many great items - and many under $100… here a few of my favs I saw recently!
