About us

Meet the Maker
I'm Carol, the Founder of One of a Kind Club — an independent brand built around colour and dopamine dressing. Every piece is here to give you a hit of joy the moment you put it on.

What is One of a Kind Club really about?
There's so much freedom in being yourself. We can follow our own paths and decide for ourselves what fashion means to us. 

I have been in very competitive environments all through my career. One common theme I've come across is that some of the greatest women don't have the confidence they deserve. I want to foster a feeling of creativity and expression to move women towards a more positive view of themselves. 

I love bold colours to give the amazing people I know a way to express their personality and style. To help them to be themselves but with extra confidence. Like putting on your brightest lipstick - with jewellery instead.

Is jewellery life changing? No. But a pop of colour in your day can be powerful. Wearing something that represents you, makes you laugh or feel good can change how you start your day. And that feeling can be infectious when you interact with others. 

Colour is one of the easiest ways to express your personality without saying a word. It's not about following trends — it's about wearing what lights you up.

My journey to One of a Kind Club and owning my own business
I have always made jewellery for fun, but I became more dedicated when I couldn't find things that I wanted to wear.

I spent 20 years in advertising and being a slightly larger person, I never felt much like I ‘fitted in’. I decided I might as well stand out a little bit more and began jewelley making as a hobby and wearing colourful unique jewellery to make myself feel joy.

Jewellery and the power of colour and dopamine dressing became my business much later though.

Having children changed life, as it does for many, and I struggled with the long working week. I loved what I did, but it wasn’t conducive to family life. During my second pregnancy, I miscarried which devastating for me and my husband, and we were told that I had a low chance of having another baby afterwards.

After the grief, I threw myself back into what I did best - my work. Being creative and busy helped me to escape from what we’d been through.

However there was a wonderful turning point when by surprise I fell pregnant again. It felt like such a gift and I started to rethink our lives. Had I really gone through all this to have two gorgeous babies and spend 60 hours a week working for someone else?

It was the middle of the night when I was feeding my daughter. I was looking at her face and I realised that I had to change our future. I needed the freedom to work for myself, follow a new path and get a more balanced life. 

That’s how One Of A Kind Club began.

What's the 'club' about?
I could have built this brand without the word 'club' in it. But that's not the whole story. This is about a community of women who wear colour on purpose — who believe dopamine dressing isn't frivolous, it's a genuine mood boost. I love meeting people who get it, and I've built a colour-loving community around exactly that.
