Go neon: Not everybody can carry off a neon dress, but a pair of hot-coloured dangly earrings or a bright handbag are different matters. Wear neon accessories with muted colours to carry off this look in style.

Flirt with feathers: Dangly feathers are a great way to work the feminine trend that was seen repeatedly on the catwalk this February. If you’re feeling really brave, a pair of neon feather earrings or a tribal-style feather necklace will kill two trends with one stone.

Laid back layers: If you can layer clothes, then why not jewellery? Try stacking bangles, necklaces and rings, but avoid the 80s overkill look.

Get fruity: Fruit motifs have been turning up everywhere from underwear to jewellery. D&Gs collection boasted a succession of fruit-patterned playsuits dressed up with food-themed jewellery – from pepper charms to tomato earrings. You’ll find a plethora of copycat necklaces, earrings and hair accessories on the high street.

Hot hairstyles: This season’s whacky hairstyles make a serious style statement. No doubt inspired by pop stars such as Lady GaGa and Katie Perry, pastel shades were big on the catwalk. If you’re not brave enough to go with a bright colour, try a light blonde laid over with a pink wash. It’s a nod to the latest trends which is nevertheless easy to wash out when the fashion changes.

Bold shoes: Bold colours were everywhere on the catwalk for spring and summer – not just on clothes but on jewellery and shoes as well. Block colours in shades such as bright green and lemon yellow look great on shoes, and work on everything from wedges to ballerina pumps. If you’re feeling particular brave you could even opt for animals prints. Next.co.uk does some great leopard skin-stye ballerina pumps, and there’s even a pair of zebra ballerina pumps (pictured) for those looking to work the black-and-white look. Check out Harpers Bazaar for the catwalk take on animal prints.

When it comes to the big day, weddings seem to have a fashion agenda of their own. Which is usually uniformly awful. Stiff white satin, uncomfortable ‘Cinderalla’ shoes, men in grayish waistcoats, bad bridesmaid dresses.

However, if you make some considered decisions over your accessories and stylish extras – such as the hair pieces and bridal shoes UK retailers such as Next provide – you can find a way to add a sense of fun and personality to your photos.

Let’s assume that you’re going for a white dress and the classic wedding get-up. Ok. But now let’s consider something more important than a sleeveless or sweetheart neckline. Your little feet, which, in the space of a good 12 hours of so, are going to walking, standing, waiting, photographed, toasting, dancing, crying probably and much more.

This year the big shoe trends are for chunkier heels and wedges – and there’s no reason why a delicate wedding shoe can’t bring in a little of the same flavour. Simple round-toed satin wedge court shoes are a bridal option for those bored of the kitten heel.

And for those of us who like a sprinkling of decadence, there is no reason why you shouldn’t have fun with embellishments and sparkle. If you just want a simpler shine, tap into this season’s patent trend – Next has shoes in both the bridal and regular range that showcase nudes, pearls and peaches in easy-to-wear patent looks.

But if you’re going all out, don’t hold back. The 1920s are a huge style influence in 2012, and the decade’s spirit of elegance and decadence is the order of the day. Feathers, beads and rhinestone clusters as decorations for shoes – gathered around the toe – or worn on headbands and fascinators will make an excellent alternative to bouquet accessorizing.

As for bling, think big earrings and keep your hair up to show them off. Wrists remain a big of a quiet area for wedding fashion – you could be the first to change that with a sparkling diamante cuff!

As we happily skip into March, spring seems to have finally arrived, and with it, we come a step closer to the summer and a potential triumph or failure of British weather.

One thing is for certain – the temperatures will be unpredictable: last year, April and October had two of our hottest days, whilst the summer was practically a wash-out apart from the end of June.

Our advice: get set on swimwear now – you could need it next week, even if you’re not going on holiday! This season the very stringy numbers of yesteryear have been rivalled by more supportive looks – padded bikinis and triangle bikinis with hidden extra coverage are popping up all over the high street in stores such as Next. Excellent for any active souls out there.

And when it comes to accessorising, ‘active’ is the name of the game. With this being the Olympic host year for London and the UK, sporty touches are around all over the place. If you want a bit of early 1990s r’n’b cool, pair a one-piece swimsuit with high top trainers and gold chains – the longer and bigger the better.

For those of us who would rather blend in than stand out of the crowd, hats and scarves are an excellent way to go. The seventies trend which obsessed designers last year can still be worked in 2012 – think Diane Keaton, wide-brimmed straw sunhats and a little floral or patterned neck scarf. Both of these will look great with a simple bikini or one-piece.

If you’ve gone for some of the season’s futuristic cut-out one pieces, don’t overdo the accessories – you want your mesmerising suit to be the main attraction. The latest fashion weeks have informed us that bright yellows and oranges are the summer’s two big shades, so make sure any accessories are in a gentler, more neutral tone – tan, straw, grey, beige. Espadrilles and a summer trilby would work for me!

     Ever since, in almost one century of existence, the brand grew into a renowned trendsetter of this competitive industry, creating exuberant clothing lines, sensuous fragrances, remarkable leather goods, watches and even writing accessories that placed Fendi among the top members of the prestigious LVMH group.

     Nevertheless, although currently Fendi belongs to the LVMH Corporation, the brand never abandoned its life-guiding philosophy and Italian flamboyant individuality, which astounds through an immeasurable creative passion, originality and unmistakable style, preferred by celebrities such as Claudia Cardinale, Diana Ross Sofia Loren, or Elizabeth Hurley.

     Through time, the brand released many impressive lines, which stet the trends for this competitive industry, and which are easily recognizable in the scenery of every fashion capital of the world, bringing a plus of impassionate Italian style to the modern women.

     Recently the brand presented another stylish urban line, and one of the most attractive accessories of the collection is the eye-catching Fendi Sterling Silver Military Necklace a superb urban model, bound to bring an edge to any fashionable outfit.

     Drawing its inspiration from the combative universe of military, the new Fendi Sterling Silver Military Necklace features a silver chain-link, measuring 15 inches, which, instead of a pendant it was fitted with two identification tags.

     Furthermore, the two tags of the eye-catching Fendi Sterling Silver Military Necklace differ from genuine identification tags, in that, instead of the wearer’s name, they feature the brand’s large logo, presented in a cutout detail.

     It is worth mentioning that the model was equipped with a detachable extra chain that enlarges the necklace, enabling it to be worn in many combinations.

     Especially created to bring an edge to a modern urban outfit, and to satisfy the need of style and glamour for any impassionate customer of the brand the remarkable Fendi Sterling Silver Military Necklace, will be available for an approximate price tag around $500.00.

     Currently owned by the prestigious LVMH group, Fendi preserves unaltered its powerful Italian individuality, charisma and flamboyant creativity, which, over the years, conquered the hearts of many celebrities such as Sofia Loren, Claudia Cardinale, Diana Ross or Elizabeth Hurley.

     Nevertheless, an enthusiast customer of the brand will say that an audacious artistic expression is exactly what made Fendi a fashionable icon of the day and, a trendsetter of the entire fashion industry and that sometimes being fashion forward can bring a certain amount of critics.

     Therefore, if you want to bring an edge to a rather unexpressive outfit, the Fendi Chain-Embellished Leather Necklace makes a very interesting choice, due to its unusual looks, which merge a boldly designed leather strap and a thick chain, which inevitably makes one think of a dog collar.

     However, the necklace will surely attract many captivated glimpses, and surely, will make a powerful fashion statement, proving that you are a daring self-assertive woman, who is not afraid to express a rather eccentric side.

     Manufactured from light brown leather, the necklace demonstrates a central yellow gold-tone, oversized chain embellishment, and it is secured to the neck with a press-stud, with buckle fastening, which also emphasizes the dog collar appeal.

     A challenging piece, which can bring both praises and criticism, the remarkable Fendi Chain-Embellished Leather Necklace is a fashionable accessory that will surely make an unforgettable impression, and surely a price of $ 280.00, is a small one to pay for a Fendi.

     Nevertheless, even if this type of jewelry comes into fashion, I’m sure that many women, would think twice before buying this rather odd accessory, and, at least, as far as I’m concerned, if a guy would show up at my door with a gift wrapped Fendi Dog-Collar Leather Necklace, he would probably be in a great deal of troubles.

     Over the years, Dolce & Gabbana never ceased to impress its customers with amazing new lines, defined by an unmistakable style, which merges sobriety with an original approach to shapes, volumes and textures, which, time and again, has been the star of the contemporary catwalks.

     Recently, the brand released a superb new addition to its glamorous line of accessories, the sophisticated Dolce and Gabbana Crystal Ring with Flower Detail a stylish creation, which will surely accent any fashionable outfit, and which will bring a plus of femininity and luxury to the delicate hand of a woman.

     This beautiful model approaches a more feminine design direction compared with many other Dolce & Gabbana creations, as it makes use of floral symbolism, and merges generous volumes, with a stylish high-end finish.

     Surely, an impressive model, the new Dolce and Gabbana Crystal Ring with Flower Detail features a dazzling crystal studded ring, performed in stainless steel and which features, inscribed at its bottom, the brand’s logo performed in rose gold tone.

     Furthermore, the creation is wonderfully completed with an oversized flower detail, performed in a rose gold tone, which, due to the high-end satin polished finish that confers it a melting metal, incandescent effect, will definitely catch the glimpse, bringing a plus of charisma to any outfit.

     Especially designed to please the fashionable contemporary woman of the 21st century, the sophisticated Dolce and Gabbana Crystal Ring with Flower Detail is an exquisite piece of jewelry, which will be available for an approximate price tag around $323.00, a rather accessible price, for any impassionate D&G fan.

     The Colours of Asprey Deep Pink Diamond Ring is considered to be one of the important Asprey jewels. It is part of the High Jewellery collection and it is rightfully called ‘Colours of Asprey” since the official and traditional Asprey colour is purple.

     The centerpiece of the Colours of Asprey Deep Pink Diamond Ring is the fancy 1.88 carats deep purple diamond that is extremely evocative of the brand’s signature colour. This hue of the pink diamond is extremely rare and it is only fair to say that the purplish-pink diamond spotted at the core of the creation is not the only valuable asset of the Colours of Asprey Deep Pink Diamond Ring.

     Two rows of round, brilliant-cut diamonds surround the pink star of the Colours of Asprey Deep Pink Diamond Ring, while other two rows of the same kind of diamonds pave the exterior of the ring, as well as its laterals. The hexagonal front of the ring is also sustained by two pear shaped diamonds situated on each side, just like shoulders.

     The Colours of Asprey Deep Pink Diamond Ring is one of those rare pieces of jewellery appropriate for royalty and extremely sought after. This is why the price it should be sold for is not available in any catalogue, but, instead it must be established only after an appointment with the Asprey representative.

     The exclusivist component of the High Jewellery acquisitionist only natural, since there are fans of certain brands, and only very few people, still, that can afford to buy such tokens of high class luxury. For these people though, the world is their oyster and the high end goods companies will do anything to attract and please them, just as we all would have expected.

     The Passion Ring is, like many other Margherita Burgener creations, an eloquent example of style and artistic vision. Inspired by an ultra modernist approach to jewellery design, the Passion Ring brings forth the subtle idea of time travel and iterative history. Its spiral mold gives way to speculations on the nature of the human soul, speculations sustained by its name and the center piece of the ring, which is constituted by a breath-taking Burmese ruby of 3.02 carats. The red-hot core of the ring is set in a pave of round, brilliant cut diamonds and black diamonds.

     Five large, over-sized petals of 18 karat white gold are the shelter of tens of diamonds, delicately paved around the Burmese ruby. They are also strained by several rows of black diamonds, in the same round, brilliant cut. The whole ensemble is shaped in a spiral movement, seemingly aspiring to the absolute beauty and truth of passion.

     A most inspired, and inspiring design, the Passion Ring brings forth one of the oldest and most debated feelings dwelling in the human heart. The resounding echoes of literature’s most famous couples, as well as the aesthetical value of the Passion Ring make it a special jewel to own. It has a certain philosophical quality to it and it is sure to convey a message which talks of more than beauty to the eye and mind of the beholder.

     The remarkable qualities of the Passion Ring are sure to make it a superb piece of art now and forever after, and while its message of passion and deep desire to live may be appealing to the contemporary woman, its strange beauty and unsettling rich red core will, most certainly, stir strong feelings in the hearts of generations to come. And the Passion Ring is without a doubt the piece of jewellery worth being transmitted from one generation to the next as a genuine legacy. Its value resides not only in the pricy gemstones it is made of, but in a most humane and generally known feeling, sustained by its center piece: passion.
