It's Show Time!
Excited at the prospect of shiny pretty things, we braved the ice and snow and made our way to Birmingham for the spring ‘Jewellery Show’.
With huge halls filled to the brim with eye catching jewels there was a distinct buzz in the air. Amidst all the hustle and bustle, we spent the day happily hunting down our favourite suppliers, whilst discovering some hot new brands along the way...
Pandora’s stand looked stunning and was filled with gorgeous new beads, much to our delight. We did however, eventually manage to tear ourselves away... and venture to the ‘Pandora Catwalk Cafe’. Filled with plush white pouffes and scatter rugs, the theme was luxury. And whilst images of decadent jewels were projected onto giant backdrops, Pandora was the first to show.
Dressed in striking leotards - in this seasons hottest colour; nude - layered with sequined jackets the lucky girls were adorned from head to toe in Pandora. The look was bold and the jewellery stacked. Other jewellery designers followed suit and we simply loved Coeur De Lion’s gigantic Swarovski crystal necklaces. Huge collar bibs, chunky resin bangles - worn up to the elbow - and elaborate masculine watches stole the show.
Fierce trends we’ll be seeing in 2010 will be all things stacked; big and bold being the key look. The charm bracelet is going nowhere, set to be really hot this season, it’s being worn layered on leather and stacked for an ultra chic look.
Next week we’ll be bringing you our first fashion update where we’ll be helping you to accessorise the latest styles.
