March Inspirations: Go Big Or Go Home

Pick Of The Day: L'Occitan Eau de Toilette

I came across this scent in a department store and I have to say I just fell in love! I've always had a thing for men's cologne (ahem) so it was no surprise that I was smitten with the scent of L'Occitan Eau de Toilette from L'Occitane UK.


The romantic capture is created through the distillation of authentic A.O.C. lavender, blended with the peppery, nutmeg scent of burnt wood. Although it is intended for men, this panoramic and complex fragrance, redolent with the rich scents of Provence, in all their ruggedness and mystery just entices women too, or maybe it's just me!

Pick of the day: Pretty Skulls!

If you still can't decide what seasons bright to work with on a daily basis, why not do what I do and work them all together.
Right now, I'm quite smitten with this Pretty Skull Ring from Miss Selfridge.

Nothing is more bolder and brighter than multi coloured crystal stones on a gold tone skull. A universal piece to carry you through from day to evening, I can't think of a better S/S 11 season accessory. (Although, I'm sure I will!)

Serving Suggestions:

Jewels Are Forever (and Everyone!)

Forget celebrities, rappers and the rich and famous, the world of glitz and glamour is accessible to everyone. Yes diamonds are the creme de la creme of jewels but crystals and precious stones do just as good a job but without the hefty price tag.

The great thing about jewels is that they're universal and wearable season after season. A piece for any look/ outfit is not hard to find and an alternative is never far away.

As stylists, we love how adaptable jewels are, not to mention how they glisten (we're suckers for a bit of sparkle). You'll be surprised how easy it is to make a necklace into a choker or bracelet, earrings into brooches and brooches into hair pieces (Well you get the point!)

There's always that special occasion round the corner (Mother's Day, hint hint) or that need to just feel special so we've selected wonderful gems for your wear, for price tags high and low.
