If there’s one thing I love more than life itself it’s some statement jewellery. OK that might be a slight exaggeration, but I am a sucker when it comes to some blingin’ bling. Updating your look for the new season needn’t involve maxing out your credit card or ditching previous season’s best buys. You can rev up your style simply by choosing the right mix of ultra-bold accessories and create the appearance of a new wardrobe. Sounds sweet right?

Statement jewellery can have the amazing power of providing an outfit boost and dramatically changing the look of the simplest of outfits. Retro inspired pieces with strong motifs like butterflies, elephants, flowers, birds, beetles and coins are just some of the most popular.

That’s why I’m swooning for these awesome laser cut, plastic Pegasus necklaces by Belfast based designer Gráinne Maher. A trained milliner, Gráinne recently decided to expand her design talents and launch the jewellery and accessories label ‘Pluck & Devour’. The Pegasus necklace is one of her first creations.

Bold and unique, these statement pieces are keepers. Prices start from £45 or €50 + €2.50 P&P to ROI. Check out the collection at www.pluckanddevour.com
