Time To Shine

Style Theory: Christmas sparkle = the embellished jumper, a versatile and subtle way to introduce sparkle into your winter wardrobe....

Embellished jumpers can make any outfit look slightly indulgent, they look fabulous dressed down with distressed boyfriend jeans and a pair of courts/shoeboots or worn with straight black jeans/trousers and a pair of heels for a evening out. They make a statement without looking too 'mumsey', you can look cool whilst rocking some glitter.  I would recommend sizing up when buying an embellished jumper as they look better this season slightly slouchy.
Here are a few street stylers working the look:

The jumper looks great teamed with distressed skinny jeans

A jewelled sweatshirt, a great way to dress down jewels.

A serious statement jumper....looks fabulous.

I love the tartan shirt underneath, a great styling tip.

Subtle embellishment on the shoulders, the cigarette trousers and plain black courts look so chic.

And now for my favourite high street finds:
J Crew: This is the jumper I fell for....

Jewelled Chandelier Jumper £168 

I love the way that this has been styled with a chambray shirt underneath and distressed jeans, it looks super stylish although the jumper itself is pricey.

Bib Necklace Sweatshirt £98

Fabulous sweatshirt, I love the turquoise jewels this could also be worn in the summer with a pair of boyfriend jeans and flat neutral coloured sandals.

Topshop: 

Knitted Crystal Stud Jumper £48

I have this jumper in pale grey and I love it, it is so soft and hangs well. I would size up as Topshop knitwear, especially when containing angora, always tends to shrink a little.

Mint Crystal Stud Jumper  £48

Looks fabulous in the mint colour too.

Knitted Crystal Jumper £45

This is the nearest I could find to the J Crew jumper above, the fit is true to size, if in doubt size up for a slouchier look.

Jewelled Collar Jumper £80.10

Fabulous Boden jumper, this is a more fitted shape so would be a 'going out' jumper, it has a beautiful deco style jewels at the collar, I would style this jumper with black cigarette trousers and flat pointed pumps.

Pearl Collar Jumper £45.99

Zara: I love the elegant pearls around the neck of this jumper, it would look fab dressed up with a midi skirt but equally as good with jeans.

Marks and Spencer V Neck Embellished Jumper  £45

I have not seen this in store but I like the V Neck option and the J Crew style of the embellishment.

River Island embellished geo £40

River island: this is slightly 'out there' but I love it, it is a statement jumper with a cool edge.

I would pair the embellished jumper above with these styles of jeans/trousers and shoes:

I always end up being lured into sparkle in December, literally just before Christmas, so this year I decided to buy a little sparkle early so I can get lots of wear out of my jumpers this season.
