Embellishing the neckline.

I’m all for accessorising!  Outfits are a little more fun when you add a little necklace, brooch, bracelet or if you are really brave, all of the above to dress it up a little more.

So basically, that’s what I did last week – piling on the accessories to dress up the outfits. 

Monday: A simple black dress with my fave accessory-of-the-moment – spike necklace with white diamante.
Tuesday:  A printed banana top with my Marni for H&M Peter Pan sequined collar.
Wednesday: Keeping it simple my Matthew Willamson for H&M dress with an intricate and dressy Phoenix sewing.
Thursday: My 99baht ‘Be Spectacled’ printed top from Bangkok dressed with my neon pop rhinestone necklace and layered with another gold spike necklace with black diamante.
Friday: Going electric with this cobalt blue top and candied spike necklaces in turquoise, pink and white colour combi.

A week of accessorising..

Fresh picks from my little weekend get-away thrown in with a couple of old fave pieces.  Here’s what I paired them with for a seemingly-short-but-felt-like-it-was-a-long week. Tuesday: Electric blue shirt dress with a turquoise blue necklace.
Wednesday:  My dramatic Leopard rhinestone necklace with a leopard ‘preens’ top.

Thursday:  Piling on the neon bling necklaces with a diamante spike necklace.  But boy are these heavy!  The shoulders felt a little tight after wearing them.  Hmph..
Friday:  One of my fave buys from the Bangkok trip, a short dress with floral and skull digital prints.  Love the ‘now you see it, now you don’t’ type of effect.  Didn’t want to take the attention away from the dress, so I simply piled on the armswag.

There you have it.  Accessories do make all the difference and they appear to be all the rage this season.  Don’t be afraid to clash colours or pile on as many as you want.  You’ll definitely fit right in with these statement pieces.
