Melodies with my Elodie

Doesn't the sunshine make you want to sing? Even though it was a cold 9°c this morning, watching the sun break through the clouds made me burst out with the classic 'I'm walking on Sunshine' by Katrina and the Waves. What a tune.

One of the million, billion things I love about my son, is that he smiles when I sing. He truly appreciates my voice. Even when dogs are howling in the background, Aaren finds something amusing in my voice to smile about.

Anyway, I digress. The sun was out and I was expecting three of my closest University friends plus their four children under the age of 3. What better way to celebrate this glorious day than by wearing my Elodie Necklace? It truly is a piece of craftsmanship and I daresay, I received many compliments from my friends when they saw me in it (regardless of my mismatched outfit with the extra large but extremely comfortable lounge pants I was wearing). God Bless Primark and their ankle cuff lounge pants.

It wasn't hard deciding what to wear with my Elodie, as it pretty much goes with everything. With its hues of jade, turquoise, grey, lime, orange, burnt orange and clear stones placed in a gorgeous antique gold setting, the world was my oyster!

I wore it at its longest length - not normally like me as I prefer shorter necklaces but I like the Elodie to actually fall on my top, rather than my neck, especially if I am having a more causal day.

I also teamed the Elodie with my favourite bracelet - the Christina Link and didn't bother with earrings as I had my hair down and was too busy steaming carrots, chopping cucumbers, slicing fruit, baking cupcakes and cooking lasagne. Although, simple Sparkle Studs or Soiree Studs in Coral or Turquoise would have been the perfect finish. Maybe next time...

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!
