For todays post I contacted Juliet, the editor of Adorn London, to put together three looks for the same dress, to help us all feel a million dollars this festive season even when our budgets will not stretch to a new dress for every party. So lets join Juliet to find out how to adorn this gorgeous dress from Monsoon.
Whenever I am thinking about what jewellery to wear with an outfit I consider three things:
How I will be wearing my hair?
The neckline of the dress
The sleeves
I then look at the occasion, in this instance, we can assume with the party season imminent that it is all about lunch with the girls, cocktail hour and evening glamour. I love the versatility of a LBD and will look at three styles based on three style icons: Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Jackie Onassis.
Grace Kelly Style: Cocktail Hour
Known for her grace and elegance, pearls were synonymous with Grace Kelly. Pearls bring a level of sophistication to the look and can be layered for a more contemporary style. Update your wardrobe and embrace coloured pearls for that winter sizzle.
Audrey Hepburn: Evening Glam
Audrey Hepburn always wore a mix of cascading diamante and pearls. The bow drop earrings and diamante choker teamed with a faux fur stole and long gloves would add the wow factor to a red carpet affair or Christmas Ball.
Jackie O: Lunch with the girls
Jackie would often wear a short choker style triple pearl strand necklace and was often seen wearing a brooch pinned to her nipped-in-at-the waist dress. This is the season of the brooch. Wear pinned to a jewel-tone cardigan over your LBD and pearl button stud earrings for a chic lunchtime look.
