Hello and welcome to my video blog on my top 10 jewellery
essentials. So kind of the absolute basics that I think most women would
benefit from, having in their jewellery box to go in outfits and finish out
this off because it is about making yourself look polished and individual and
that's what jewelry does and a lot of people I meet really do struggle with
jewelry because they don't know what goes with what. What pieces they should
own and it's generally their jewellery box is full of stuff that they've been
given as presents, that they don't know what to wear and also it's just
confidence. That's what it really boils down to, so these are my top ten pieces
that I think work with an awful lot in your wardrobe.
Now when I’m going through a client's wardrobe I won't actually
check any jewellery out because sometimes it's sentimental, it could be worth a
lot of money and so I always leave it to the kind of understand what they've
got. So number one on my list is a beautiful pair of diamond stud earrings.
Okay so whether they are real or whether they are fake, the decision is
entirely up to you. So these particular ones I got for my 21st, 22nd
birthday quite a while ago. I live and diamond web all the time and it's very
rare that you'll see me change my earrings. At the moment I have again replaced
them just for some of them, so the diamonds not real but these are my real
diamond studs that yeah I live, live and die and then go absolutely everything.
Simple pair of jeans and a t-shirt and you're looking finished off just by
having some diamond studs. My favourite and not real diamonds are by stella and
dot unless the 20 pounds that they look fantastic. Just cubic zirconia, so
again don't have to be real.
You can just get some people's number two on my list is a
beautiful watch and now again this is totally dependent on your budget, on your
style. I personally I wear my dad's. I like a bigger watch because I’m quite
tall and curvy. I just prefer having a chunky man's watch that's just my style
but this one's obviously slightly smaller. I'd always recommend small, go for a
mixed metal like this one so you've got your silver and your gold because I
think it's nice to mix metal. I think it's more stylish for some people. I'm
only going to wear gold, i'm going to go to my silver, that's fair enough but
if you've got skin tone where you can mix metal then I definitely would so.
A really nice timepiece is the two on my list, number three is a delicate gold necklace. So I wear my dad's dime they had in a ring. I
have made into a necklace and I never take it off, I wear it all the time. So I
think a delicate necklace could be maybe something sentimental to your whether
it be a saint christopher or something you know that means something to you and
so anything sort of delicate. A little it's nice to have around your neck and I
probably would feel more comfortable in something like this, then I would in
the next piece which I’m going to show you.
So number four on my list is a statement necklace. Look at that
bling, so I would say that statement necklace this one's from ultimate
collection and then I’ve also just picked up one from topshop which I thought
was quite nice because it's got this sort of mixed metal again but it goes with
an awful lot so you can just add that on to an outfit and really sort of change
the look. Totally again wearing a simple t-shirt out and pair of jeans by
adding a statement necklace you're really, really taking it to another level.
Now a statement necklace is fantastic that drawing your eye to that area, so if
you've got a nice decollate by all means do that, because just think that's
where people's eye has been drawn to. It's also great at disguising a small
chest so if you are interested then a statement piece of jewellery on you looks
amazing. I personally I’m not as keen and I prefer a delicate. Okay so it's you
know whatever you personally desire. Number five on my top ten is a long
necklace, now everyone should have along necklace in the wardrobe. The reason
being is that they are the best tip and trick and making you look taller and
slimmer, so the reason being is a long necklace draws the eye downwards, so you
appear taller and slimmer just by putting something simple and long.
Now this is particularly my favourite longer place, it's called
the rebel pendant. Again it is from stone and our own shot is in a brand of
jewellery cost you jewelry, but I really recommend the reason being is it's
very good quality and that's the key when you're buying high street jewelry.
You know don't go to cheap, because a cheap piece of jewellery will cheapen an
expensive outfit. Okay where you know and not so cheap piece of jewelry can
make a cheap outfit look expensive so it's definitely being careful with what
you pick when you're buying jewellery and I think this particular one's about
60, 65 pounds, comes in gold, it comes in silver and it also comes in a
beautiful rose gold as well. So a long necklace is a great tip at making you
look taller and slimmer.
Number six on my list of top ten is a cocktail ring. So if you're
not into statement necklace like i'm not, I generally do wear a statement ring.
So if I was say going out on a night out I always think a statement cocktail
ring you're wearing that little black dress really add something to your outfit
and if you particularly like your hands then again it's drawing it attention to
that area, so cocktail ring for me is definitely high up on the list. Number
seven on the list is bracelets, so again a cuff, so this is for someone that
again like me they wouldn't really do a statement necklace and at once a bit of
chunky jewelry so I would prefer you know of cerf obviously not probably with
this top but with a nice dress could look fantastic again with pro jeans and
t-shirt on are people about it but jewellery really does bring up interest into
really simple classical outfits.
Now if cuffs isn't really for you, you could always do some sort
of smaller more delicate pieces. I wear a couple of bangles all the time and
but if you just wanted something small and lay them out that's really on trend
at the moment to have bangles later. Number eight on my top ten is some wow
statement earrings, so look at them bad boys. So I think again it's all about
bits in moderation you definitely would not wear these with a statement
necklace a bangle and a cocktail ring. You choose one or the other, so it's
whatever you want to draw your attention to. So he's got a beautiful neck area
if you've got short hair you're wearing your hair up having a statement pair of
earrings really draws your attention to that area, so if you're wearing a
strapless dress or you're wearing holiday and you just spent seeing something a
bit of bling then these can be absolutely brilliant.
I got these from boutique in newark blast and I just really loved
the cheque was standing them, so i've only worn them on holiday. It's still
good thing to have, so number nine on my list is a pair of hoop earrings. Now
hoops aren't something I wear, they're not really my sort of style, they're
meant to make you look younger, more youthful, so I suppose I should really,
but a pair of hoops a lot of my clients love wearing a size totally dependent
on you. Some people from bit smaller and wouldn't really go a lot bigger than
that personally but pair of hoops. This one's a michael kors, just rose gold
ones are great simple addition to having your in your jewelry box. Last but not
least in number 10 on my top 10 jewelry basics is alice chanel's a few pearls,
so doesn't really matter how old you are. Pearls are absolutely classical thing
to have and however you want to do them whether you wear them long or short but
they can really make a simple shirt top pair of jeans look so classy and chic
so they are my top 10 of joy basics, the absolute essentials that most women
will really benefit from having in their jewellery box. I do hope you enjoyed
watching thank you so much bye
