A balancing act
Accessories are key to elevating any look this season
Harmonise your summer wardrobe with a few key additions that will bring a fresh edge to any look.
For a pop of colour, try a vibrant Hermes nail varnish, or indulge in a spritz of Maison Crivelli perfume.
The new Antigona bag by Givenchy is compact and urbane, while woven totes by Celine and Loewe bring a dash of bohemia. For a sharper edge, Chloe’s new Bracelet bag with its circular handle blurs the line between jewellery and bag.
For those who prefer the gleam of noble metals then Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Reverso Classic watch is an investment for the future, while the just-launched Perlee bracelets by Van Cleef & Arpels will add a gleam of gold to any summer evening.
Pearls are also a timeless touch, whether as a heel detail at Dior, as a sautoir by Carolina Herrera, or in grey and gold at Chanel.
