Exactly what I wanted, makes me feel empowered
Love this !I bought this for myself and I love it (and what Wear and Resist is all about). It looks good with my other jewellery, it’s nice quality, the swapable charms are a great idea and I liked it so much I got the necklace too!
Excellent reactions to these… Every woman I meet loves these. They cause great reactions and conversations wherever I wear them. They’re also comfortable and light. Cannot recommend highly enough. PS: my husband hates them. I. Don’t. Care.
What a company! These necklaces are awesome, never seen anything quite like them and all support one charity or another! Go to the website and buy one, or two! You won't regret it!!
Female-founded and fiercely independent
I started Wear and Resist because I wanted to wear jewellery that said something, while supporting women's charities. It remains a very small sustainable business. I design and make what I want, and I don't answer to investors or work with charities that don't allow me to voice my own opinions.
Solar-powered
Wear and Resist is running on solar power, and we are in the process of making our home and workshop self-sustaining.
Perspex is an acrylic made of Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA), which has 100% recyclability. It is made from monomers that it can be broken back down into and does not release chemicals at normal temperatures or break down into micro plastics. It is considered a fully recyclable circular product. I have very little waste as I make in small quantities and design each sheet as tightly as I can for cutting. I recycle all of my offcuts.

On being MALADJUSTED
'Modern psychology has a word that is probably used more than any other word in psychology. It is the word maladjusted. It is the ring and cry of modern child psychology and certainly we all want to avoid the maladjusted life. .... But I must honestly say there are some things in our nation and the world to which I am proud to be maladjusted and wish all men of goodwill would be maladjusted until the good society is realized.
On mindset and why I've been feeling more than a little feral (and ideas for the future)
‘I honestly don’t know if you can help me,’ I wrote recently to a very lovely and well-meaning business coach, who had contacted me about joining her programme. I then proceeded to type out a cascade of worries about the state of my business in this climate.
Rantings on a f*cked up world
I keep thinking about this: about why billionaires would want MORE … more power, more money. How can you want more when you have more than you can even conceive of. To put it all into perspective, the entire global military expenditure in 2024 was $2.7 trillion and the total billionaire net worth in 2026 was over £16 trillion, which is a neat explanation of why democracy can’t function under capitalism.
Let customers speak for us
I love this brooch. It's of the usual high quality I've come to expect from Sarah. The sparkle reminds me of the stars navigated by Princess Leia who inspired the piece. Marvellous!
I love this brooch. I was given a sticker that says " choosy worn change lives" by a client and thus is a longer lasting version.
So well made, a wonderful business with excellent ethics.
Such a beautiful piece of jewellery, I got it for my friend who is an excellent wordsmith who also dreams of writing a book so the necklace also has an inspiring element to it. She was absolutely delighted with it!
These earrings are such a statement, they are even more gorgeous in person! So lightweight to wear, and comfortable to, so you don’t have to take them out before the night is over. So many compliments on them, just a joy to wear!
Sarah is fabulous, such a great company of unique pieces. Excellent quality in all the pieces. Love the many choices of designs & colour options too.
Love it, get so many compliments! Such a lovely lightweight design, great on its own or layered with other pieces. It gets the attention it deserves. Delivery was super quick, well packaged and it looks exactly as pictured. Great to support so many worthy charities, along with a growing business.
Got to be honest and say I saw the ‘fuck yeah’ earrings after I’d had a quantity of vino and thought, fuck yeah I’m having them!! They did not disappoint. Love them and will definitely be ordering more - thank you Sarah!
These were also a present for my wife and are amazing would definitely recommend to family and friends great product and service.
These were a present for my wife who loved them said they were lush and very comfortable and has added them to her collection. I would definitely recommend.
