All that glitters....Part 1!

Believe it or not! A/W 11 is nearly over! It goes so fast don't you think? But with every new season, comes new trends! For S/S 12 keep an eye out for  high shine, metallics and glitter! I don't mean the twilight sort of glitter mind, i mean the glamourous kind - think Marilyn Monroe with a modern twist,  Dame Edna Everage but a bit more wearable!

What a way to break out of the cold and blacks of winter!

With this trend, its important to invest in quality materials, to avoid looking shabby! But don't worry! This doesn't mean you have to empty out your pockets! So for this half of the subject, here are a few key pieces with High Street prices!

This is an Emerald Shimmer Jersey Kimono, available at 'Topshop'! It is definitely an eye catcher, but in the good sense! Add this to any outfit for an instant spruce up and a touch of glamour! Costing £40, you are going to be left with pocket change!

A metallic crinkle tee, also available at 'Topshop'! Some people may think this to be a night out top, but worn correctly, it can easily be a everyday tee! Perhaps pair with some black, high waisted trousers to add a slight touch of formality, but remaining casual!

These AMAZING examples of unitards are for those willing to take a giant leap into individuality, for those brave fashionistas out there! You can do so much with these, think of layering, heaps of jewelry and dropping of jaws. Of course these can be toned down very easily with a few darker pieces, complementing the shimmer! but why not give it all you got and work these statement pieces!? Available at 'ASOS' for £30 each!

WARNING: Beware the magpies! ;D
