As most of you would know I love, love, love jewellery and accessories having run my own accessories label for seven years. So I bought back A LOT of jewellery from New York when I was there in May/June.
I loved the colours in this dress, and while I've styled it here with quite tough accessories, I think a pair of lavender, suede heels would look great with a slim, silver belt.

It wasn't intentional that I would shoot this jacket in the late afternoon sun, but now I'm looking at these photos I can see that it really needed to be under direct sunlight for the full effect of the foil leather to come to life.
It's even better in real life, and while I'm wearing it casually here, it looks great all dolled up for a night on the town.
