Mixed Metals Madness

The sun came out in London today. 18°c to be exact. Now I know that's still winter coat attire in many countries, but in London, it is practically sunbathing weather. So I got dolled up and decided it was Mixed Metal day and proceeded to go the whole hog and wear my Nancy studs too. I felt like a million dollars!

For those of you who have seen my YouTube videos - you will know that I have never been a huge fan of long necklaces, especially long chains. But I have to say, the Zoe Lariat forces me to delve into my inner creative depths and I decided to tie a knot in mine - three times, so that it fell onto my six month pregnancy bump.

I was going to team up my Zoe Lariat with the Kahlo Linear Earrings but decided that the sun was shining too much for me not to take advantage of wearing my Gold Nancy Studs!

I then finished off my outfit with the Sparkly Bardot Spiral Bangle. As you can see, I am not the only fan - my son couldn't get his hands (or mouth) off the bling bracelet!

The Sparkly Bardot Spiral Bangle is so versatile, it can also be used as a teether!

Blue? Wear it. Don't feel it.

I am waiting patiently for the Summer 2014 Stella & Dot collection. There are still a few months left, however, the March Summer Capsule wardrobe has just been released and made available to us Stylists today! If blues, teals and turquoises are your colour, then you are in luck. I have already placed an order for the  Capri Tote - Jewelled Zebra.

These will be made available on the website for you to buy, from 4th March. However, if you want to order any of the summer Capsule before then, let me know!

Make an (under)statement!

I am not normally a fan of delicate necklaces and I am no charmer, that's for sure. If I had to choose between a bold statement necklace wrapped around my neck, drenching me in metal and semi-precious stones or a subtle, delicately hanging chain, I would choose the former. I was going to say 'I would choose the former every time' however, that was before I had a look at the delicate pieces Stella & Dot had to offer.

Now, I am not going to say that I am a total convert and I am off to buy every charm with the initials of my family, a teddy bear, my birthstone and a ballet shoe, but I am actually now open to them and I would wear necklaces of a delicate nature, more often.

To be honest, necklace wearing isn't really a habit of mine, like earrings. I would never think to leave the house without earrings but I wouldn't think twice about not wearing a necklace. In fact, most of the times, I just wouldn't bother. Saying that, a few of the Stella & Dot delicate necklaces really appealed to me and I have just put in an order for some. My favourites are: Together Forever Necklace, Demi Layering Necklace, Piper Necklace.


                              


Make a statement!

Stella & Dot are well known for their pretty powerful statement jewellery, especially their necklaces. I have reviewed a few for you:

1. Fleurette Statement Necklace 
2. Frida Necklace
3. Tempest Necklace
4. Sardinia Pendant
5. Somerville, Christina Link and Mae Necklaces

Bright colours are really in this summer (when are they not?!) and I think every girl should have at least one necklace that makes her feel like a goddess when she walks into the room. For me, it's the Tempest Necklace. However, I do want to get my hands on the Gold Pegasus Necklace too...
