Victorian jewellery

In 2012 Victorian-inspired necklaces, brooches, and earrings have had a serious impact in fashion. They originate from the antique articles of regal jewellery made in the United Kingdom during the reign of Queen Victoria. Dramatic Victorians come in somber tones with dark onyx, deep ruby and emerald-toned gems set in gold jewels with black enamel tracery.

Choker

A tight-fitting velvet and rhinestone choker is also a type of Victorian accessory. For a modern take on this period mixed with a touch of goth, tie a simple ribbon, lace or pewter choker around your neck. This jewellery trend has been seen in many fashion shows of the finest and most comprehensive collections where models turned into goth ladies which is a big winter 2012 trend anyway.

Studded cuff

Take a cue from the best fashion bloggers and shake up your outfit with a punch of edgy-cool style that studded details give. Not just for belts, the cult-favourite pyramid studs look great as rings, cuffs, just about everything. Even Valentino has sacrificed his ladylike aesthetics to the punk-chic rokstuds which can be injected to any casual or cocktail-ready looks.

With a bold look and a gold animal motif, an intricate fox, panther, or owl head detail jewellery lends a polish of hard-edge elegance to every outfit. Take inspiration from the London runway and adorn yourself with an innovative yet fierce allure.
