There is a certain finesse in wearing diamonds. Not only do they subtly catch the light and twinkle like fairy dust, but they also add that je ne sais quoi to an well-picked warm winter outfit. The star on top of the Christmas tree, a few diamonds decorating a necklace, or a statement finger ring with a glistening nail varnish shade to match will help you step into the festive season with a sparkle – and some splendour.
A glitzy heel will help you sparkle this season.
Always believe in your soul
…‘Cause you are gold! Glittering golden dresses, a wash of warm chrome above the eyes, or a glitzy heel will make you the belle of the ball – or the enchantress of any office party. Gold is a colour that complements any skin tone – particularly when it is a paired with darker hues, such as browns, charcoal blacks, navy blues and deep reds.

Check mate
Check, plaid, tartan… This chic style with many names can also be donned in infinite ways – and the best part, is that it can paired with your warm winter faves easily. Whether you prefer a demure swishy skirt, a sultry form-fitting dress, or a sophisticated scarf decorated with traditionalism, check your wardrobe – and if you are lacking this seasonal staple, it’s time to plaid the town tartan.
A demure swishy skirt looks stylish and chic.
Too good to be blue
There is a suaveness to denim – it emits a ‘casual but not-too-casual’ air. Blue jeans with a knitted jumper is a classic combo, while a denim jacket will bring warmth and a splash of sapience when worn over your floral print dress – and don’t forget to consult Will Smith from the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air as to why wearing double denim is a good idea. Period. Whatever your tastes, you can absolutely make the textile work for you – and plus it is breathable. So when the air con or heating is on full-blast, you’ll remain suitably comfortable while looking the part!

Forget me, not
Sometimes a fragrance is as memorable as an outfit. And while the days of smelling like the fresh mountain air with notes of fruity raspberries, lavender or chamomile are a but a spritz of summer memory – you can, however, incorporate warm hints of cinnamon, precious pine forests or swoons of sandalwood into your perfume routine to craft a subtle signature scent this season. It’ll be a winter’s gift from you to you.
