Today we will consider the benefits of wearing a shawl, a wrap or a cape, which can allow my hands to be free while keeping me warm and glamorous. Different forms for different needs are available: the capelet, the stole, the bolero or the shrugs all have consistency when it comes to enhance our style. Shrugs are a good option if you need to attend formal events: they reveal your chest, have sleeves to allow movements and are available in faux fur (if you are an eco-minded lady). The bolero works like a small cardigan: in cashmere and/or velvet for this season, very-tailored and stylish, a must have! The stole is useful if you need to focus on your face or if you seek a versatile option: worn with denim or satin, can easily adorn a short neck, good value.

The capelet is an evening alternative to shrugs: for a glamorous and ageless chic, can replace jewellery if worn with a straight line evening outfit.

The Carat is the diamond’s overall weight. Carat weight, on its own, does not give the value of a diamond, you should always check with a jeweller, if the carat is 1/5 of a gram. The Clarity is used to work out the imperfections of a piece of diamond. The Colour is linked to the amount of yellow, brown or white, the stone contains. Whiter the stone appears, better its quality is. The Cut is a reference to the stone’s shape or facets; a jeweller can get more into details http://www.jewellerylondon.com/

The traditional black opaques are out once again, having them in purple, or any other neutral colours, can add a bit of fantasy if worn with a dress by a student…

The floral lace are good alternative to the coloured opaques if presented with a romantic or bohemian look. The crochets this year are everywhere. Stylish and trendy, neutrals are welcome like brown, olive, plum, dark grey and black. If you need to make a gentle statement then try printed tights, fantastic with a winter skirt made of solid fabric.
