Outfit Transformers

I am absolutely obsessed with jewellery, I even work for a jewellery brand (Adorning Ava... check it out), so you can imagine my excitement at the moment with all the ornate necklaces, the decorative ear cuffs and the opulent rings. 

Fashion jewellery has never been bigger and this season, it just got even bigger! The high street is adorned with rows of shiny jewels and gems, sparkling away... seducing innocent women, trying to save their pounds and pennies! As you can imagine, pennies is all I have left! So after my hunt through the high street this weekend, I thought I would let you in on my favourite pieces that will literally transform your whole way of styling and dressing!

My favourite necklaces!

I am all about the chunky statement collars and necklaces this season. Some are subtler than others, looking delicate and pretty, while others are over powering and proud sitting amongst the smaller styles. I am definitely an over powering and proud kind of gal! The bigger the better in my book!

Mad about the midis.

There are some really cute midi rings about and I seem to be drawn to the simpler midis, but layered up with chunky rings and on many fingers. It's all about the layering to really rock this.

Tassling about

Tassles and chains are mahhhuuuusive this season in rose gold and rustic silver shades, whether it tied around your neck like a curtain tie back or jingling from your ears! Definitely a big yes from me!

Ear cuff crazy

Ear cuffs aren't new, but the size and decor has upped it's game. The simple chain cuff has turned into a full dress for your ear!

Jurassic jewels

This has been carried through from summer, but with more vengeance and attitude. Mini beast accessories are huge. This is trend is probably like Marmite .. love or hate! I personally love, but of course I would, it's different edgy and completely unconventional. LOVE!

Leather fix

When it comes to leather... I find people seem to be a bit scared of it. Yes it can be riskaaay, but played right, leather can the most seductive, sexy stylish fabric going. This season, leather will play a BIG part in the trends, whether worn subtly in the day or upping the anti at night. 

I thought I would have a quick shifty round the high street to give you the best leather buys for AW13!

Cut Out Boots

Topshop

Leather boots NEVER go out of fashion... they're classic and let's be honest last forever. I wear mine to death. But this year boots have boots have took an alternative twist. They look a bit like old fashioned school shoes, but with more substance to them. I find them quite feminine, which is a nice change to the heavy studded biker boots from last season. Topshop have the best cutout boots this season, with the best cut prices.

Who's wearing them

Leather jeans/ jeggings

That's right, they're back. Whether you prefer a structured pair of skinnys or jeggings/ leggings that have a bit more stretch, they're here to stay this season. Pair them with some tartan or an oversized jumper and beanie for a slouchy, cool look.
