This woman always know how to stand out from a crowd though! :-)

Do you prefer wearing dangly earrings or studs? I am a bit of a stud wearer myself I don’t know why but I always chicken out of putting of a big pair of bling.

Nicole Ritchie will designing her own jewellery line for Mouawad. 

She has been working on the range since January after giving birth to her daughter Harlow. Nicole says that its a mix and match of costume jewellery because that’s what she loves and incorporates into her everyday wardrobe.

Nicole is also planning on bringing out a maternity range which will be very plain and simple clothes. She says she wants to deter away from the fact that the wearer is pregnant? Think she will have her work cut out there?!

Mixing fashion jewellery and designer jewellery is always the way to go.

Although picking up jewellery from your high street shops is great, there is nothing better and more satisfying than wearing a piece of designer jewellery which will make people green with envy.

I love these Chanel earrings which are available, they are sparkly and sophisticated with that glam edge!

In the fashion capital Milan one Italian jeweller still uses simple hand crafting techniques! There are no state of the art machines just father and son working together engraving, polishing gems and carving!!!

The jewellers is called Buccellati’s and has been running for years. All the workers do everything by hand so one slip of the handsaw and they have to start over again!!!!!

They won an award in the States for most Prestigious Jewellery Brand and are considered must have jewellery by Milanese high society!

Wow sounds amazing wish I could take a trip to Milan to view these handcrafted jewels, suppose I’ll have to make do with H.Samuel! ;-)

Did anybody see the Friday Night Project with Mariah Carey?

Well if you did I’m sure you would of noticed her cute Butterfly rings, I’m really not a fan of the diva and don’t really want to give her any praise but I loved her rings thought they were really unique and pretty! Butterflies are her trademark.

I was out shopping at the weekend and found a similar ring in Miss Selfridge for £6 by Diva bargain! :-)

I love Pearls I know they were orginally known for the “ladylike” look but I think they can be so Sexy and Chic. I have a few longer pearls that I put with lots of outfits, they are great for dressing up skinny jeans and a nice top or even just over a simple jumper!

I also own the original choker style pearls which I wear mainly when i’m going out, I think you have to be careful what you put them with though don’t want to create a too conservative look!!

They are hot to go this season and all the stars are out and about sporting them so go get yourself a pearl necklace this weekend!! ;-)

When it comes to men and Jewellery there are ways of getting it right and ways of getting it VERY wrong!!!

For example a mans jewellery by day should never detact from the rest of his look its should be simple; a manly watch, wedding ring, bracelet that appears from under his shirt every now and then.

By night if you want to go for a bit of bling make sure you go for statement pieces rather than the gangster look, no diamond encrusted necklaces or peace signs!! Less is more and if you get it right it looks so good one word David Beckham! No full set of studs though that is no longer cool unless your gay!

So for all you men out there who are scared to accessorize your look i have listed below a few pieces that will help you get started :-)

This watch is from Diesel, perfect statement with a bit of white bling!

I was flicking through my OK mag last night when I saw an article on the must have Spring/Summer accessorie, the Bijou Cluster (see below).

Apparently with latest trends turning all floaty and cute this is the perfect necklace to compliment any outfit! I actually quite like it, what do you think?
