FashionJunkie: State Your Style

If I was a rich girl...

If I've learnt anything from Fashion, its how to make a statement. Whether its wearing a meat dress or carrying the latest Celine bag, getting that recognition for your style is the key.

I've spent most of my life always opting for something that stands out, I once wore a black shirt with a bright orange and black striped tie...(Yes its well and truly gone now...)

Over the years my style has progressed into various looks, what I normally opted for was statement tee's with graphics or wording has now moved onto a simplistic shirt with a bold necklace; which brings me to my topic, statement jewllery. In recent months I have started opting for short, bold necklaces which stand out against my outfits at work and nights out, in particular chains and spikes. Since spikes and studs came to trend in 2011 my love for them has grown, along with my recent obsession of fluorescent colours such as yellow and fuchsia.

Now before you assume I'm going to bang on about the latest designer necklaces, you're wrong. In fact I've noticed the high street have jumped on the bandwagon and started selling statement pieces for as much as £15! After recently investing in two necklaces from H&M, I got thinking about other brands such as Topshop etc. Above these two pieces are being sold from £20! Sounds pricey? Fear not as Primark and H&M are too selling necklaces for as little as £8! Below this silver one is going for £7.99! Bloody good bargain if I say so myself.

Why stop there though? Bracelets, Rings, Earrings and more are all just as good. As a lover of bracelets, I wear my Thomas Sabo, Pandora and Links of London bracelets everyday (which by the way totals up to 7 pieces of jewellery on my wrist, including my watch...)

Below this stunning bracelet is currently on sale in Forever 21 for £6.65!! Well...what are you waiting for? Its the perfect summer investment as it can be teamed with anything from Maxi dresses to nothing more then a bikini and a cocktail..

Given I'll be going home in less then 2 weeks for Easter, my parents kindly bought me some presents from a recent holiday I get to go home too..one of them being a statement necklace with 2/3 layers of black and silver spikes, as well as a dress and a bottle of vodka...

Honestly don't know what I'm more grateful for, the necklace and the dress or that my parents know what brand of vodka I like...
