Like a lot of other families we ended up being apart over Covid. I was in Europe and Annie was here in Sydney. When I came back to Australia in December 2021 we were so excited to be back in the same country together and decided to begin working on something special to us - a passion project and business that would mean we could spend every moment we could making up for lost time.

While rummaging through heirloom pieces in our jewellery boxes and wondering why people don’t wear more colour, Bixby and Co was born!

Luckily we get on like besties - travel, sunshine, music and living life as positively and enthusiastically as possible are all things we have in common. We love to laugh and send our energy out into the world, and we dress and accessorise to show off a bit of our personalities.

A trip to India in early 2021 reminded me that women should celebrate our femininity and personality. Every woman there seems to look vibrant and colourful, even in the most remote and poor areas. Here in Australia we tend to underdress for occasions, rather than dressing up and sparkling - which is such a shame when girls here are so bloody beautiful! 

We’ve now been in business for two years and are constantly striving to be better and do better. Our mission for 2025 is to work solely with a manufacturer who aligns with our vision and who can bring our own designs to life in a sustainable and quality assured way.
