Show off this season’s classic timepieces and take a rain check on style

ENCHANTING Watches
It’s the perfect time to make a style statement with the season’s most versatile timepieces. This is an ideal trend that transcends seasonal fads and embraces the unbeatable combination of practicality and exclusive fashion. Choose from the different designs that range from understated, elegant and classy to sparkling, glamorous and vibrant. If you want to make heads turn, flaunt a fabulously frosted Cartier or Tiffany model that doubles as a dazzling bangle. To add a splash of colour, the dramatic DKNY scarlet-strapped wristwatch is just the perfect accessory to have. For striking attitude and sophistication, try an oversized unisex watch by Diesel, whose look evokes the same irresistible charm as a girl in her boyfriend’s shirt. From encrusted diamonds and stainless steel bands to asymmetrical rings and sleek textured leather, this month’s timeless trend is certainly here to stay.

MONSOON Essentials
Make sure all you fashionistas are well-equipped in your designer togs this monsoon when the heavens burst open. Whether it is applying waterproof mascara to extend and enhance those beautiful long lashes, or wearing bright, trendy trench coats and chic mackintoshes to avoid the appearance of a drowned rat, be sure to prepare yourself to face rainy days fashionably head on. One way to beat the blues is to let your creativity flow and try a hand at layering. Mix, match and coordinate your own unique ensemble, from short cropped jackets over comfy linen T-shirts to metallic vests over summery print dresses and a cool pair of jeans. Without a doubt, a monsoon outfit can never be complete without accompanying accessories like delightful oversize designer umbrellas, quirky gumboots and classic rainproof monochrome berets.
