When I picked up this month's ELLE UK edition, I had no idea it would hold the key to all my answers - but it did. Here is this season's key trend number one:
1. Jewels and Sparkles
Embellished accessories and sparkly clothes are so in right now! With clothes, the greatest piece is the sparkly blazer, or big-shouldered mini. I mean, just look at Anne Hathaway on the cover of ELLE:
and Natalia Vodianova on the cover of Harper's Bazaar:
and even Lara Stone on the cover of Vogue:
If you want to snatch up this staple item for a price that won't break the bank, here are some ideas... Topshop - £120
I can't display a picture of this Lipsy dresses unfortunately, but take a look at the page!
With accessories, you should make sure they are hugely embellished, jewel-encrusted and oh-so-extravagant - this season less isn't more...it actually is less! I don't know what it is, it must be Christmas...
River Island - £75
So, that is trend one - jewel purpose. In my next post I will tell you how to do trend two!
p.s. You shouldn't wear embellished accessories with sparkly dresses - wear the accessories with luxe clothes with clean lines, and lots of silk. Keep accessories simple and minimalist with sparkly dresses.
