In love with: Statement jewellery!

If you ask me, the best way to add glamour to a casual outfit is by adding accessories (Of course, the sparklier the better!) 
I love wearing costume jewellery. It’s my favourite way to dress up an otherwise simple outfit. I particularly love statement necklaces!

I picked up this green/gold piece in Penneys recently. They have an amazing selection of costume jewellery. 
What's even more amazing is the prices! (I think this one was approx €6)
Every time someone comments on it, my automatic answer is "Penneys!"
When I saw this picture on facebook recently, it made me giggle.. I think we're all guilty of saying it at some stage!

For this look, I wore a simple black cape which I picked up in Zara recently. 
I haven't taken it off since I got it! It's a great piece to have in your wardrobe - Suitable to wear everyday and dressy enough to wear for a more formal occasion.

Here are some of my guidelines for wearing statement necklaces:

• A statement necklace looks best when styled with a simple outfit.  It adds glamour to the simplest black dress. It can also make an old dress that you've worn a million times look completely different. 
• Keep the rest of your jewellery simple, especially your earrings.  
  By keeping your jewellery simple, you are letting the statement pieces speak for themselves.
• If you have a larger bust, it is important to opt for shorter necklaces that don’t lie directly on your chest.
• Store your necklaces on hangers to keep them from tangling or breaking.
