Versace Versace...

Ill never forget the iconic moment in the film 'Showgirls' where Nomi Malone (Elizabeth Berkley) creates an awkward, humorous moment with a mispronunciation of her designer Versace dress.
Versace has come along way since then and with the  A/W frost creeping in, Versace whip our their A/W ready to wear collection with a selection of sharp tailoring, leather textures and some very long boots! 
Check out the images of the collection by clicking on the link below! maybe you might find some fierce A/W style inspiration.

My Personal SS13 Accessories

So its near the end of SS13 and I wanted to share my personal Spring/Summer 2013 accessories that I have been wearing! These are a few statement necklaces that are my favourite ones to wear and have been excessively wearing this year! even though i have worn them a lot this summer , it doesn't mean I wont be wearing them next season. The great thing about statement jewellery is that Its timeless, you can dress up any outfit with any bold, bright and beautiful pieces just like the ones below.


This piece is definitely a timeless piece, black and gold can go with pretty much everything in anyones wardrobe. I love mixture of a classic gold chain with spikes, giving the necklace a tough appearance.


This was given to me as a gift but I know its from ZARA. A great place to get statement accessories.

...............................................................................


This jewelled necklace is my favourite out of the bunch. Its bright, its bold, and creates a huge impact when paired with a simple white t-shirt. I love how this can transform a classic outfit.



The detail is gorgeous and I also like how its finished with a rope and not a chain for a more quirkier look. This necklace is from New Look and is still in stores now!

This is another beautiful necklace from New Look. Its a classic black and white collar inspired piece but with a perspex and jewelled twist.


This piece works well with brighter outfits when you need something subtle but stylish at the same time. I have been wearing this with bold coloured t-shirts and collarless shirts.
.................................................

This final necklace is an african inspired beaded necklace , again from New Look. ( There have been a lot of offers on in the store so I couldn't resist! )
The mixtures of colours are amazing and again its completely versatile as you can take it from day to night .


The beading style makes it quite an interesting statement piece which is while i was drawn to it. Its one of the most unusual pieces I have.


I have many more statement necklaces to come which will inspire you to brighten up your basic outfits and create instant attention so watch this space!
