ACCESSORISE YOUR ADDICTION WITH HOT NEW JEWELLERY TRENDS

Us females know all too well that an outfit can’t be finished off without at least one signature piece of jewellery; but hey, why stick to just 1 piece?

The major catwalks are adorned with some HOT jewellery trends this season; make a statement with an oversized ring - who said bling bling was out?! And don’t stop there as it’s not just oversized rings, but also oversized earrings and necklaces are also working it this season!

Statement disc necklaces and oversized necklaces coincide with hot summer 09 trends - whether it boho, monochrome, or tribal, there is a necklace to fit them all and look fab on you this season.

Wrist candy is a must this season too! Mix up your bangle set with different textures, shapes and colours, as seen on all the major catwalks. Oversized chunky bangles, cuffs, or pearls, try these in bright colours to finish off a vibrant summery look!

HOT SUMMER HOLIDAY ACCESSORIES

Is it just me or does it seem everyone but me is jetting off somewhere warm, exotic and sunny?! Well I plan to work all the hot summer trends, holiday or no holiday! Let’s face it girls the best part of preparing to jet off is the shopping! So what hot accessory trends can we expect this summer holiday season?

First and foremost of course you need a fab pair of sunnies! Plastic frames are in, retro, cool colours (Lady GaGa esque) and oversized sunnies are still in so make sure they are on your tick list.

A beach must-have is a cute tote bag - not only is it big enough to hold your beach towel and other essentials but looks great teamed with a cute bikini or swimsuit and sarong.

Work the beach look to the max with a sassy straw hat, and protect yourself from the sun whilst looking like a beach fashionista Beyonce style! Team your straw hat and sunnies with a must have pair of pumps, or strappy sandals, and when it comes to holiday nights, swap the sandals for a funky pair of wedges and show off that tan!
