    DIANE VON FURSTENBERG BAG

    Georgie Love this… Because this Diane von Furstenberg multicoloured bag channels autumnal tones of dark green, turquoise and oil slick grey and black. This Stephanie medium sized leather bag's intricately hand woven exterior and metallic undertones add to its grandure while its accessible shoulder straps transform it into a bag that can be worn during the day.

    DVF has come a long way since the premier of her iconic wrap dress in 1972. The eponymous designers' most renowned creation has set her in good stead; since her re-emergence into the fashion world in 1997 she has continued to produce upbeat, colourful collections, allowing her reputation to extend well past the classic wrap dress. Now well emersed into the world of accessories, Diane von Furstenberg continues to produce eye catching pieces that add an effortless edge to any outfit.

    MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA JEWELLERY

    Sonia Loves this… Because this gold-tone brass Maison Martin Margiela jewellery set has the power to add an unusual metallic allure to any ensemble. Elegantly crinkled, they can be worn separately for a subtle glint of gold or together for full impact. A refreshing take on a long necklace, the pendant gives us the whimsical illusion of a tiny chocolate bar that has been dipped in molten gold. All the while the cuff conjures up images of intricately molded armory that has been hand crafted for an Amazonian warrior.

     

    Born in Belgium, Martin Margiela started his own label in 1989 after a short successful career working as a freelance designer for couture fashion houses such as Jean Paul Gaultier. Famous for his avant-garde approach to fashion, Margiela has notably been most interested in the deconstruction of traditional tailoring. He is also known for a somewhat 'unfinished' signature look that consists of visible seams and frayed hems. An honorary member of the Antwerp Six, he attended Antwerp's Royal Academy of Fine Arts and was actively part of the revolutionary fashion movement that began to reject that mundane aspects of the luxury fashion industry in the late eighties. Now owned by the Diesel Brand, Martin Margiela is no longer creative director of the company. Never the less the ultramodern design aesthetic that is present in the recent collections, are respectfully derivative of his legacy.

    DANNIJO JEWELLERY

    Georgie loves this… Because this glorious assortment of Dannijo jewellery shows us that diamonds, even if they are in Swarovski crystal form, are still a girl's best friend. The Omala antique gold- plated necklace glitters impressively on the collarbone, its multi coloured crystals dancing in the soft, romantic light. The Shai chain-covered cuff channels a touch of gothic chic with its dark midnight crystals while the Aurora crystal and silver bracelet oozes glamour with its chunky chain and sparkly centre. The Coco crystal embellished cocktail rings in gold and silver are always the perfect additions to evening attire as they provide an excellent talking point.

    Who ever said less is more has obviously not seen this opulent collection of jewellery. Also seen here are three medieval style Gurhan spotted bangles in oxidised silver and gold, pearl and red topaz. Kara Ross provides an interesting twist to the usual cuff with her exquisite stingray and Hematite stone piece. The additional rings by Delphine Charlotte Parmentier and Sahani make a relevant and contemporary statement while the Jayce Wong and Holly Fulton rings remain classically beautiful. Matthew Williamson's decadent gold Pyramid belt tops of this sumptuous ensemble with its pink and silver chrystal studs and black silk lining.

    Dannijo jewellery is the brainchild of sisters Danielle and Jodie Snyder, an American based design duo. Handmade to the highest scope their pieces stand out from the crowd as their innovative use of diverse materials create interesting and yet timeless pieces. After opening a small boutique in Jacksonville they both decided to move to New York to try and further their designing career. Their first collection in 2007 solely benefited the non-profit African organisation LWALA and also proved to be a huge success. Following on from this their brand has become a household favourite with high-end boutiques and department stores stocking their collections worldwide.
