Glitz and Glamour
If there is a special occasion coming up in your social calendar then there is no better way to make yourself feel suitably special in preparation than by adding a little sparkle to your ensemble. This can be done in a number of ways:
1. Go for statement jewellery. Pick your piece according to the shape of the neckline of your top or dress. Not all items will support a statement necklace if the neckline is not right. If you decide against the necklace, a wide banded, twinkling bracelet or cuff could to the trick. Or a large pair of statement earrings could be just what your outfit requires. Handmade, one off pieces will make much more of an impact than anything you can find on the high street, and you can rest assured that no-one else will have the same.
2. Don't forget to dress your hair. An air of vintage chic can be added instantly to any up do with the simple addition of an ornamented comb slide or a bejewelled hair clip. If you are not wearing big earrings, you could also add a touch of sparkle to hair by using a glittery clip to pin back a fringe or the front few strands.
3. Jewellery is certainly not the only way to add glitter to your get up. A sequinned handbag, big or small, could also have the desired effect. Clutch bags or bags that you wear over your shoulder and across your body are usually more eye-catching than ones that sit on one shoulder which often end up hidden beneath your arm.
4. Donning a pair of sparkly shoes is one of the most fun ways in which to jazz up an outfit. They needn't be expensive, either. New Look has a fabulous range of party footwear, many examples of which are adorned with sequins, glitter or jewels. Have a look at their shoes to get inspired. They come in a vast array of different colours and cater for a wide variety of sizes, without costing the earth.
If you have a special event coming up and you want to make sure you feel every bit the glamorous party girl, add a little glitter to your outfit this season and you are sure to make a dazzling impression.
