Mesmo há mais de três meses longe da perseguição da mídia britânica, parece que Meghan Markle ainda precisa de uma ajudinha extra para se proteger do assédio. E não, não estamos falando de seguranças e guarda-costas, ainda que o assunto já tenha chegado a ser motivo de troca de farpas com ninguém menos que Donald Trump.

Após usar um pingente em formato de hamsá durante sua viagem ao continente africano ano passado, a Duquesa de Sussex agora optou por outro amuleto que acredita-se ser capaz de combater o mau-olhado. Em um vídeo para a instituição de caridade Smart Works, da qual é patrona, Markle aparece com colar que pode ser lido como uma adaptação mais elegante do famoso olho grego.

“It’s been such an honour to meet and learn from so many talented women in the Smart Works network over the years, and recently to see the amazing work they’re doing to adapt their programs to the reality of this pandemic. Their ability to continue to empower women and help them harness the confidence they need to succeed during this time is inspiring." – a message to our clients from the Duchess of Sussex. ⠀ Since moving to a virtual service six weeks ago we have delivered 200 hours of support to our clients. ⠀ From the volunteers who have been delivering coaching online to the staff working behind the scenes to make everything run smoothly – the energy, passion and commitment has been overwhelming. ⠀ We couldn’t do this without the support of our community and on the 27th March we were honoured that our patron, The Duchess of Sussex kindly volunteered some time to speak with one of our clients ahead of her interview, offering words of advice and encouragement. During the session the Duchess praised her for being “such a beacon of hope” and “focusing on getting through this”. ⠀ When asked about her patronage she said, “it’s a pleasure to support them, you see how great they do and how many people they help and that’s what it’s all about. I’ve been really proud to be able to be their patron, but it’s an easy yes when you have such incredible women helping you.” ⠀ After her session with the Duchess our client had this to say: ⠀ “I just wanted to say a big 'thank you' to you, the Duchess and the whole team at Smart Works for making this possible for women all around the UK, because to see such work is truly inspiring and uplifting. And thank you for the super useful interview tips – I will be using them for years to come!.” ⠀ The Smart Works service is available for any woman who is unemployed and has a confirmed job interview, referrals are made by our employment support partners including women’s charities and Job Centre Plus. Our mission is to help anyone who needs it, no matter the circumstances.

Da marca Edge of Ember, o medalhão é feito de prata de lei banhada a ouro 18 quilates e possui um delicado topázio azul em seu centro, para simular um olho. Segundo o site da marca, o acessório é “inspirado por antigas moedas encontradas na Ásia” e representa boa sorte, protegendo quem o usa de energias negativas.

A singela proteção, porém, tem um preço um tanto salgado. Disponível para compra online, o colar sai pelo valor de £135, o que equivale a R$ 898,29. Será que vale o investimento?
