Jewellery has signified milestones in my life long before I even knew it. With the birth of every child, my father gifted my mother a token to mark our arrivals. For the first, a pair of lapis lazuli earrings. For the second, a string of pearls. And for me—their last shot at a daughter—a gold Cartier watch with a periwinkle crocodile strap. On this 28th birthday of mine, I’m wearing that watch and smiling down at its face. Thanks for another wild trip around the sun 💫 - Emilie
