A well planned, spectacular piece of jewellery can quite literally make an outfit. Without being too garish or piling on the bling, one simple item can draw attention not just to your clothes, but to the colour of your eyes, your hair, your neck or your decolletage.
A beautiful necklace can lengthen your neck and make even a simple dress look elegant and stylish. Those in the know are well aware that with any LBD, a pair of heels, an up-do and a stunning necklace or glittering earrings can literally make heads turn. What seems to be effortlessly stylish is most likely to have been planned months in advance.
Jewellery can also help to draw the eye away from the bits you’d much rather weren’t noticed. A well thought-out, deliberately designed outfit can nip, tuck and flatten, whilst some strategically placed gems guarantee that your slight imperfections will fade into insignificance.
Here’s a fantastic example of what we’re discussing. Actress Sophia Bush, although possessing a figure most of us would kill for, has opted for a rather cute yet plain mini skirt and vest top. What sets this outfit entirely apart, however, is the stunning necklace. You might think that something this large would look completely out of place against a plain skirt and vest. However, in actual fact, it adds some needed glam (although a tied scarf would look very European too), transforming her look into Manhattan woman about town.
Fortunately, although this gorgeous Miriam Haskell necklace is likely to set you back by several hundred pounds, you can recreate this look with any large, glittering piece. My personal choice is this pretty silver crystal set. Available from the Seasonsonline site for £24.99, the silver necklace has a number of Swarovski crystal drops, set amidst a background of swirls and a crystal flower. The earrings have a 4cm drop and the necklace can be extended to compliment the neck of your top or gown.

Remember, being stylish or glamorous is all about how YOU feel, not about how much you’ve spent on an outfit or accessories.
