Putting on the Glitz

Think sequins, sparkles, silvers and gold (yes, way before Christmas) and add those shimmering accessories to your home and wardrobe for this hot new autumn trend. The glamour and glitz look is hard to nail - there is a fi ne line between classy and tacky. However, it looks like this trend will be here through to New Year so it is worth investing in some key statement accessories to add that luxe feel. There are some lovely inexpensive options from shimmering cushions to tableware glitz that will glam-up your space, while bed throws, rugs and wallpaper can add a more generous touch of luxurious extravagance. Blend the shimmers and sparkles with your style canvas rather than overwhelming it, creating a hybrid décor and style look that can easily transition in months to come. Here’s our pick of some smart ways to add those touches of sparkle and glitz into your life. Shine on!
