Tonight Clifton Rocks is having a Christmas shopping evening.  I’ve blogged about Clifton rocks in the past (here) it’s a brilliant independent jewellery boutique in Clifton owned by the very lovely Clare Chandler.  She stocks a whole host of gorgeous designers alongside her own collection, and prices start at a very tempting £10 so there’s something for every budget. 

The evening will not only have you sipping wine while you browse for the perfect Christmas present (or, let’s be honest a little something for yourself) but you’ll also be able to get 10% off everything and up to 20% on some selected items!
I can’t think of a better way to spend my time shopping for Christmas gifts, but if you still need some persuading then scroll down...

My recent feature for Folio magazine was about all the fab fashion events taking place in the region this season. Since then Cabot Circus have had their fashion show. The outfits were great – very wearable, however I’d have loved to have seen some more accessories. Jewellery can really make an outfit and this season it’s all about statement jewellery, the shops in Bristol are brimming with oversized necklaces, and big bangles.

Here are some images from the show (kindly provided by Abi Dare) to encourage you out of your winter wardrobe. I’ve also hunted around Cabot Circus to find you some fabulous accessories to help with the often tricky transitional dressing.
















Savvy summer styling:



Unleash your girly side with these floral bangles from Topshop.



Take your favourite outfit from day to night with this striking necklace from Topshop.



Pile on the bangles and work the tribal trend with these from Walis.



Update your favourite jeans and t-shirt combo by adding this statement necklace from Topshop.



Team this necklace from River Island with a pair of skinny’s, a stripe t-shirt and boyfriend jacket for instant chic.



If colour scares you then ease yourself in with these little block colour rings from Dorothy Perkins.



Sharpen up your Utility Chic outfit, with this bracelet from New Look.
