Styling Mantras:

Line up the beads please! Plastic, wood, baccalite, or even crocodile skinned for the absolutely extravagant - beaded bracelets, long necklaces and quirky waist belts scream fashionista out loud.

Colour rules…acid yellow totes with bottle green stripes, metallic or printed block heels, faux snakeskin belts with shiny buckles, semi-precious stone jumble chains, Swarovski and feather brooches - the list is a mile long.

It's necessary to protect and enhance side by side. Try pillbox hats with outré corsages, bandanas with striking prints, diamanté-studded headbands and mega-sized designer shades for some summer oomph.

Indian and western elements combined together work very well. Try pink tourmaline and emerald kundan jhumkis and a polkhi enamel ring with a buttercup Bottega Veneta basket bag and purple, metal-studded Sergio Rossi heels.
