As the temperatures rise and the ability to slurp a cocktail (or two) like an athlete gasping for water it appears that our bare skin and pins suddenly see the light as our dresses get shorter.

With more minxy flashes of skin up for attention, it boils down to only one logical conclusion; plenty more space to adorn yourself with beautiful jewellery! 

Summertime is a season of fun, frivolous risks and more daring looks so why not charge up your jewellery game by thinking outside of the standard box: you've got the necklace, the bracelet, the ring, the chandelier droppers and the edgy ear cuff so what next?

Open your arms and your heart to the world of body Jewels!

Each and every one of us only has one single body to carry us through this crazy world so why not make a statement in the way you waltz the streets? Inspired and sparked by the man of fashion himself Karl Lagerfeld, the Chanel Cruise 2018 show took a luxurious sweep into antiquity with pieces reminiscent of Ancient Greek Goddesses.

Titled 'The Modernity of Antiquity', take inspiration from the collection that mirrored the beauty of grecian elegance with gem adorned headbands, antique gold accents as well as beautifully sculpted arm cuffs and delicate head crowns.

Add a touch of ancient nostalgia with a hint of timeless elegance with this treasure trove of grecian-inspired body jewels...
