The Laings Journal
Trend: Diamonds
Diamonds are a girls best friend…so the song goes. And we all love to add a little bling to our lives. Whether it is day or night there is no reason why you cannot adorn yourself with some beautiful diamonds! It’s the obvious choice to team them with an evening high glamour look, however I have pulled a high fashion daytime dream to wear with your new diamond purchases from Laings.
This gilet by Karl Donoghue is just pure decadence. He is the king of shearling and achieves the same appeal of fur without the stigma. I have pulled the stunning caramel gilet to team with your diamonds to add some rich texture while keeping you warm. Karl Donoghue @ Harvey Nichols £899
A pretty soft blouse with some nice detailing is a great investment piece that can be worn a hundred ways. I have kept to the same colour pallet of creams, beiges and caramels and have chosen this vintage inspired classic from Alice Temperley at John Lewis. I love the draping on the sleeves, which will show beautifully with our gilet. While the lace inset is so pretty when you decide to take off your fabulous shearling. It can dress your look up or down. Clever blouse. Alice Temperley for John Lewis £89
We all require a great pair of trousers that are cut perfectly, make us seem taller and slimmer while being an investment for the future. These stunning trousers from Max Mara are just the pair. Again our colour pallet of beige’s and caramels just add to the richness of the look while the straight leg and front fold are so flattering. Max Mara @ Matches £315
A great pair of killer heels is what we love. A pair that are understated yet super sexy and can transform any outfit we put on….well that’s just clever. And I have found the smartest pair out there. These stunning patent leather nude heels from Louboutin are a classic from season to season. They add height without killing your feet with the concealed platform. They elongate your leg with the nude tone and the patent leather makes them modern and fun. They just top our over all look off perfectly. Christian Louboutin @ Pam Jenkins £640
Now for the bag, we all require one, we all covet one and every season there is a new ‘it’ one. That’s fine, but you need to have the style classics down first. A bag that will take you from season to season, look to look and can be seen with any age group. That’s a style classic, and that is why I have chosen this fabulous brown leather Bayswater from Mulberry. A bag that has been the flag bag for Mulberry for decades and a style that everyone recognizes. This bag is large enough for your life to fit in and stylish enough to take you from day to night. Mulberry £795
Now all that is left it to top the whole look off with your fabulous diamond selections from Laings!
