Shine bright like a diamond this season with the most precious trend emerging for SS13. Enough with the rock star silver studs already and on to more girly and sparkly adornments of diamond encrusted looks. Taking a page from Lanvin’s Fall 2012 catwalk exhibiting the most beautiful door knocker-size diamond and gem necklaces; talk about statement jewellery!

Diamonds are forever for Queen Lizzy but you too can get royal treatment in this bedazzling trend. These lustring gem stones are not just for accessories; we have adorned our classics with these starry jewels, adding a touch of glitzy fun. Get your iced rocks on with the Linda Top or the cute and sexy Hillary Bodice. Who says sparkle was just for the festive period? All year round you can shine out in your party wear, or adding some unexpected shine to your day time look with some iridescent ice.

Some of our favourite bloggers have been proving this week that sequins are for life and not just for Christmas! The sequin trend looks set to continue throughout 2013 and bloggers such as Anouska Proetta Brandon and Duoch Jag showed off their Gabby Sequin Dresses in iridescent green, whilst others like Chloe Ting chose to show off their sequins in Spandangle Shorts, perfect if you want to add just a touch of sparkle to your outfit. These iridescent beauties come in both Green and Purple so they add new textures to your wardrobe with a hint of bling. Team with a pair of tights and heels and a flick of black eyeliner for the perfect party look – you can’t get more glamourous than this!

Our fabulous friends in America Miss KL have featured 3 different Motel items in their most recent look book! Firstly they chose the luxury looking Tatun Bralette which features a sweetheart neckline (perfect to accentuate and flatter those Christmas curves!), dazzling multi-coloured sequins and a mesh back. The multitude of silver, gold, pink, green and blue sequins ensure that there is something for everyone and means that you can tick two major trends at once; metallics and sequins, both perfect for that much needed festive glam. Team with a skater skirt such as the Motel Kadie High Waist Skater Skirt and a leather jacket like the Tammy Faux Leather Jacket or the Foxy Faux Leather Studded Arm Jacket for a ready-made party outfit.

Other items featured in the lookbook include our Magic Bodycon Sequin Dress and Deluxe Phoebe Slinky Maxi Dress. The Magic Dress is highly unique in its style as the blue and gold sequins catch the light beautifully to create stunning patterns and colours. This dress will ensure you shine on the dance floor and dazzle those around you under the disco lights!

For those of you wishing to step away from the sequins our Phoebe Dress takes inspiration from the 70′s with its luxurious metallic foil material styled in a flattering shape that will nip you in at the waist to create a stunning silhouette . Bring on the big hair and glitter for a real nod to 70′s disco style! The good news is that this comes in Metallic Pearl and Black as well as the Metallic Royal Blue featured so you can dazzle in any way you want, the choice is yours!
