Annakay Williams started in beauty before transitioning to fashion. She created quite a trend with her stylish leather belts that she decided to take that luxury a step further. These days, Williams is doing the design rounds with gorgeous statement accessories.
She tells us about the inspiration behind her jewellery journey. In a recent interview with Living , she explained that her motivation came from creating a by-product from the leftover leather materials sourced to make her statement belts, “I primarily started this venture as a means of minimising the waste after producing our statement belts from the PU leather or polyurethane. I realised, however, that this creative outlet provided more therapy than I could have ever imagined.
” A fan of jewellery for most of her life, the mother of two recalled her own mother adorning both her and her sister in the most beautiful gold flower earrings with necklace and bracelets to match. Creating accessories was a passion that developed overtime. Since becoming a jewellery designer and placing the pursuit under her Confident Authentic Woman (CAW) brand, she shared with great pride that her favourite piece is the butterfly.
“It is a part of the metamorphosis collection,” she revealed, adding, “It reminds me of the innate ability I have to evolve and that all I have to do is to submit to the process of transformation. Additionally, it’s easy to wear because of its lightweight feature and it immediately makes a chic stateme.
