Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, and Zara Tindall has just delivered the ultimate  jewellery inspiration. Stepping out at the Cheltenham races over the weekend, she turned heads in a striking navy look, finishing the outfit with a bold pair of £5.2k gold link earrings from Australian label Calleija. 

Zara has collaborated with the brand since 2013, and her gold earrings with detachable links are some of our favourites. Gold link earrings have quietly become a staple in royal wardrobes, favoured by both Meghan Markle and Princess Catherine who have been seen championing the timeless silhouette. 

If you’re looking to recreate Zara’s look without the luxury price tag, there’s a chic high-street alternative worth snapping up. Abbott Lyon’s interlocking hoop earrings have a similar look and are currently in the sale, making them a standout option for anyone shopping with Valentine’s Day in mind. 

Made from 18k gold-plated stainless steel, they’re designed to shine without the upkeep, thanks to their fully waterproof finish. The earrings also come with a five-year warranty, making them as practical as they are stylish. 

Shoppers can buy the earrings individually for £27 or pick up the pair for £48.60 by using the code TAKE20 at checkout. With Valentine’s gifting now firmly in focus, these gold link earrings tick every box. They’re timeless, meaningful and versatile enough to be worn long after February 14 has passed. One happy reviewer wrote: “Gorgeous earrings in lovely packaging.”
