Fashion Month - It's the little things...

So I don't know if you know, but London Fashion week has started today.

I would love to get a front row seat to a fashion show. I wonder how fashionistas, prominent, designers, buyers and others decide what makes a particular outfit so good. They could praise a simple cut shirt and shun a delicately embellished blouse.

I went on a fashion shoot yesterday as I'm doing an internship for New! Magazine, and I really got a firsthand experience of what it's like. The clothes the model had to wear were nothing out of the ordinary; the shoot was in fact based on the coats worn because New! are doing a winter coat theme for their feature shhh.

Anyway, I know how I would have spiced up any one of those outfits...with accessories!

It's the little things that make the big things stand out. Accessories, most of the time, are what make an outfit matter. You can wear a simple black top, like I am today, but because I've added a chunky pearl necklace I must say I do look quite the part.

Here are some necklaces (which are my favourite type of accessory) that are sure to scream 'look at me', even if you're wearing the drabbest outfit.

Multirow tube necklace, £15, Miss Selfridge

Chunky chain necklace, £19.99, limited at New Look

(This particular necklace was worn by the model on the fashion shoot yesterday =])

Cream pearl crochet collar necklace, £20, River Island

Mixed metal plait collar necklace, £9, Matalan

As you can see from my selection I seem to have a thing for gold (it stands out against my skin colour), but there are plenty more which will compliment any look.

Have fun accessory shopping. Michelle xoxo
