ART DECO DELIGHT

Nothing beats adorning yourself in gorgeous jewellery, slipping on your favourite earrings to frame your face, sparkling jewels to highlight the decolletage, am I right? I just love the art deco style and glamorous crystals exquisitely set in antique silver plated pewter settings are key this season. Mimco's new 'Empire' range of art deco inspired pieces are great teamed with vintage inspired wedding decor and fashion.  The glass pearls set into the silver plated pewter of the Empire Pearl Choker are garnished with drop set crystals to instantly and effortlessly add elegance to any outfit and a must have in my jewellery box for this season...and after your special day, simply pair it with a tailored shirt for a subtle statement piece.

GOLDEN TREASURES

Of all the ways to make a personal statement, one of the most telling is a woman’s compact. Such a subtle, quiet accessory, yet it’s chosen with care and elegance and asserts volumes about tastes and attitudes.  I just love Estée Lauder’s compacts, which have become collector’s items each year, and are every bride's perfect handbag accessory. Whether you are known for “handbag elegance” or are waiting for the opportunity to treat yourself to something very special, this exclusive jeweller’s designs – filled with Lucidity Pressed Powder – are made to be loved. And of course, they all have the “click and flick” quality. The click is just the right sound of substance when you snap open the clasp - guaranteed to draw the attention and admiration of all your bridesmaids. On my most wanted list is Estée Lauder’s Golden Alligator compact below, a perfectly elegant powder compact for that quick touch up...

STATEMENT NECKLACES

I simply cannot tell you how much I love a statement necklace. Whether worn all day or as a bold addition to reception attire they are just the ultimate in personality filled glamour. With no end of gorgeous styles, from dramatic crystal pieces, to bohemian chic, to exotic explosions of colour - your statement necklace really can be anything you want it to be and a perfect expression of you. It's also has the added advantage of being a trend with an option to suit any budget. Adelaide's fabulous Miss Martini has a stunning array of statement pieces and would be a brilliant place to start the hunt for your own jaw dropping piece. Good luck!
