If you want to brighten up your January outfits without breaking the bank then statement jewellery is here to help.

Big and bold bejewelled necklaces are still in vogue and can be worn with everything from a simple t-shirt to a slinky dress or the current roll neck trend.

Choose pieces with a simple colour palette but lots of texture for a classy, vintage feel or go for one stand-out stone that shines.
