Our Motivation

We believe accessories should be more than an afterthought.

The right piece can elevate an outfit, express your personality and give you that extra confidence when you walk out of the door.

That’s why we carefully select the pieces we bring to Afrodame. Our collection has grown from the jewellery we started with to include handbags, shoes, scarves, shawls, watches, sunglasses and other fashion accessories.

We look for pieces that feel beautiful, distinctive and worth adding to your wardrobe without making beautiful style feel out of reach.

Our Story

Afrodame is deeply personal to me.

Building this business has taught me resilience, consistency and the courage to keep going when things don’t go according to plan. It has also introduced me to incredible customers, suppliers and fellow entrepreneurs, many of whom have become an important part of my journey.

From travelling to source new products to continuing my own education as a business owner, Afrodame has pushed me to keep learning and growing.

In many ways, I set out to build Afrodame but somewhere along the way, Afrodame also built me.
