Accessories Aplenty

If you're accessorising with one item this season, it has to be jewellery. I think in terms of fashion, 2013 has definitely been a breakthrough year for costume jewellery with it appearing in almost every store on the high-street. But why risk someone else sporting the same necklace or bracelet as you? Wearing vintage can cut out that worry altogether and at vintage store Studs and Lace, there is plenty of original pieces available.

It's common knowledge that the chunky necklace has pretty much dominated the costume jewellery scene this season, with collars and heavily decorated pieces cropping up everywhere. Studs and Lace have many handmade and vintage inspired pieces to chose from in their new collection including a personal favourite of mine, the handmade black lace bow necklace. Perfect for the upcoming party season, it will complement well any art deco style outfit or be the ultimate statement for any look.

With the dark nights drawing in and the invitations mounting up, it's that time of the year again to throw on your glad-rags and high heels (and find perfect statement accessories to match!)
