As the temperature gauge hots up and we take advantage of the light evenings, we embrace the hazy days of summer with open arms and a stylish new wardrobe of clothes that give a friendly nod to the much-awaited rays of sunshine.

As life takes on a more al fresco affair, social occasions range from the casual shorts and t-shirt type BBQ in the garden, to holiday poolside glamour, an outdoor wedding reception, or perhaps a cocktail evening. With each occasion usually comes a separate wardrobe of clothing and for many of us a frustrating and stressful “What am I going to wear?!” moment of panic! This is when jewellery, just like that favourite lipstick of yours, becomes your best friend.


The sparkle and shine of classic and contemporary jewels are the perfect antidote to a wardrobe crisis. Jewellery can change the messaging of your outfit in the blink of an eye. Go from being the casual sunbather to poolside chic by introducing diamonds into some enviable necklace layering or throw on a pair of glitzy earrings that tell your audience you’re here for the evening and not just ‘popping by’.


The jewellery you choose to wear can add longevity to an outfit, taking a casual stretch maxi dress or jeans and a classic white t-shirt to another level, or taking your style from day right through to night with the perfect element of glamour to afford you a chic and stylish look all day long.


Perfect the polished instant al fresco glamour by experimenting with different jewellery pieces – long gone are the wardrobe dilemmas if you’ve got an impressive jewellery wardrobe. And by impressive, this doesn’t have to mean bold, bright and the largest gemstone that you can find – of course this will most definitely change up an outfit – but equally, luxury essentials such as diamond studs and diamond line necklaces are classic ways to elevate your look, whilst mixed cut jewellery and contemporary twists on classic items add interest.


FOPE is renowned for its jewellery rich in elegance and class. Transforming the way that women wear jewellery with their patented Novecento mesh and presenting understated luxury in all the brand’s collections. FOPE jewellery adds the perfect layering of chic to your al fresco style.

If you’re looking for a luxury jewellery item with delicate detailing and a timeless beauty, then the sleek and beautifully detailed pieces from Roberto Coin’s Love in Verona collection radiate summer with their iconic four-petal pattern. This full diamond ring and bangle make a wonderful combination to add elegant sparkle to a daytime affair.
