Hello, reader. I want to play a game. 

    Happy October, everyone! I know, I know- I've been MIA again. But don't worry because I've come out of hibernation to share with you guys an exciting and amazing collaboration that I've been working on. This one's more of a fashion collab, though- sorry if you're expecting a beauty related one haha!

    So a few weeks back, Gnoce reached out to me to share their very Halloween-apt collection and listen: I'm not a huge horror fan but this collection just got me! Usually when it comes to Halloween figures, the popular ones that always come up are Jason Voorhees, Chucky, Freddie Kreuger, Pennywise, and Jack Skellington. When October comes around, expect a gazillion merch with their faces or at least some reference to them. But while I love those characters, I think I like Gnoce more for having a jewelry collection that features an iconic character that I feel is under represented. Can you guess who it is?

    Before I make the grand reveal, let me just quickly introduce Gnoce to you. Founded 9 years ago, GNOCE Jewelry has made a name for itself by producing artfully designed and lovingly handcrafted pieces of jewelry. According to their website, Gnoce's pieces "aim to capture the happiness you feel at each step of your life, offering joyful reminders of these feelings each time you wear them." Not only are they dedicated to designing and crafting jewelry pieces that everyone can enjoy, they also make sure that the materials they use and the pieces they put out have minimal impact to the environment!

    Fun fact: their brand's name Gnoce comes from the words "Gnosis" which means knowledge or memory, and "Dolce" which means sweet or soft!

    Lastly, Gnoce products are made of 925 Sterling Silver, while their colorful charms are 18K gold-plated. Some of their pieces also include shimmering crystal, beautiful cubic zirconia gems, and ethically sourced opals!

    Now, let's talk about their very Halloweeny collection that I can't wait to show you guys! Well, it's the Gnoce x SAW collection, which includes one of my favorite horror characters, Billy the Puppet!

    Their SAW collection is quite extensive, which includes a pair of earrings, a necklace, a ring, a bracelet, and quite a number of charms! Talk about getting blinged out for Halloween!

    Gnoce so generously let me choose four items to have in this collection and honestly, it took me a while to choose because all the items in the SAW collection are so cutely terrifying! But alas, I narrowed it down to the four that I really liked!

    I love wearing earrings so naturally, my first pick was the Mismatched Bloody SAW Stud Earrings! Initially, I thought it was gonna be tacky and a little costume-y but when I wore them, they are just perfect! I love the bloody saw blade as the main stud and the dangling charms, the bloody puzzle piece and severed leg (!!!), are the perfect accents to the earrings. I love the red accent color running through the earrings and I love that they don't look as costume-y in person which means I can still wear them for everyday after Halloween! If you love a good quirky pair of earrings, you have to get this one!

    The next item I picked is the Billy Necklace. Now I'm generally not a necklace-wearing person on a daily basis but I couldn't resist this one! I love how this necklace not only features the face of Billy the Puppet but also incorporates a bloody hacksaw- genius! This piece is more on your face as compared to the earrings but I think it will look great as an accent piece for a plain outfit. I'd also like to mention how nice and hefty its necklace chain is and how it doesn't irritate my skin!

     The Gnoce SAW collection features a number of Billy the Puppet Charms to choose from and I ultimately chose the 'GAME OVER' SAW Billy Charm and the Billy Tricycle Pendant Dangle Charm! If you are a huge SAW fan, I think you'll really like the charms in this collection because who can say no to Billy the Puppet?? (No, really- who would??) I like how eerie yet charming these charms are, plus their holes (openings??) are wide enough that they could be used as charms on other bracelets and necklaces. I also like how these charms are strong and durable. Not gonna lie, I dropped these charms several times while shooting this collection and not one chip on sight! I think we can say that it's a testament of Gnoce's really good craftmanship!

    (The bracelet in the photos, the Never Fade Metal Bracelet, was also kindly gifted to me and it is made of 316 Stainless Steel.)

    The Gnoce x SAW collection is a really cool collection and I think huge fans of the film franchise will really appreciate it! I super love how the SAW jewelry is a mix of eerie, haunting, beautiful, and intriguing vibes- I think Gnoce got SAW's essence down to a tee with this collection! I also like that everything I had felt like premium jewelry- none of them felt like costume jewelry to me which is amazing! Overall, the SAW collection is an exceptional and unique one, from the packaging to the jewelry. A win in my books for sure!

    Before I go, shall we address the elephant in the room? Is Gnoce a dupe of Pandora? Well, yes and no. Just like Pandora, Gnoce has a wide range of charms and jewelry that aren't limited to only cute, gothic style. However, Gnoce also offers personalized photo customization, perfect if you want of something more personal and special! Like Pandora, Gnoce offers high quality products but with a more affordable price tag. That means you get to enjoy nicely crafted jewelry without breaking the bank! Also, what's nice about Gnoce's jewelry is that they can fit in any bracelet- yes, that also includes Pandora's! Lastly, Gnoce's jewelry pieces are also packaged as exquisitely as Pandora's!

    So if you're in the hunt for Halloween jewelry, like Halloween earrings (or maybe Severed Leg Charms for your bracelets, perhaps?), go check out Gnoce! Aside from their SAW collection, they also have other spectacular collections worth checking out such as Betty Boop, The Little Mermaid, Cinderella, Puss in Boots, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland! Getting Gnoce's products are easy since most popular styles ship the same day or are shipped within 24 hours, while their personalized charms take longer and are shipped within 1-3 business days. They offer free shipping for orders above $79, can be returned within 60 days, plus their items have a 365-day warranty! Check out GNOCE now and treat yourself to beautifully crafted charms and jewelry!
