Be careful not to spray perfume directly onto real pearls, as it can damage the delicate surface.

Round off the look with the fanciest jewellery of them all, cocktail rings with unmissable stones.
This cocktail ring looks so much more expensive than it is.

In a word: Breathtaking.

Givenchy sent models down the runway wearing a cuff on each wrist to drive home this point.
This addition of the large centre stone sets this cuff apart from its plainer counterparts.

Adorning everything from dresses to handbags, it makes sense that the trend has also been translated in jewellery form, too. Opt for a corsage worn around the neck, as seen at Madga Butrym, or opt for a statement earring akin to Carolina Herrera.

At the very least, they're not going anywhere for 2023, as many designers played with collar-length chains in their collections.

Although gold tones still continue to dominate the spring/summer 2023 edits, there was a notable rise in the volumes of silver jewellery coming through, which was evident everywhere from Loewe to Missoni.
Heart-shaped jewellery is another recurring trend this season.
Charm jewellery always feels nostalgic—in a good way.

This season, the often-overlooked brooch cropped up in so many collections, giving it the credence it needs to shine as a fun jewellery option once more. Between colourful gemstones an architectural shapes, brooch iterations are truly endless. Me? I'm all about the more-is-more approach.
Tick off two trends in one with a pearl brooch.
