The fact that the calendar is still on January and the fact that we need at least three months before we can wear our spring clothes did not deter us from admiring the new Spring/Summer 2010 Accessorize collection. With pieces for all tastes, styles, preferences and colours you will definitely find many items that suit you! Drawing inspiration from exotic places, Accessorize create a contrast game between the nostalgic and the contemporary, cosmopolitan West and the exotic East, romanticism and rock-chic, with ethnic element, tropical colours and exotic patterns ideal for your summer adventures.

Belize

Belize presents a collection of global and ethnic influences. Embracing bold unexpected clashes of pattern and colour, the look is dramatic, vibrant and exotic. Combining natural and modern fabrications in a colour scheme that chases shade of golds, turquoises and hot pink, the collection is accented with striking black. Eclectic bags scattered in colourful embellishment are key alongside statement woven trilbies and studded leather sandals.

Harem

Harem is a story of comparisons Luxe yet casual, exotic yet simplistic, glamorous but with an understated tone. Taking inspiration from travel and escapism, this sexy yet sophisticated bay unfolds scenes of sun-scorched deserts and rigal safaris. Statement necklaces are heavily beaded in burnt orange and rich earth tones, and clutch bags are embellished with interesting matt stones. A chic floppy sun-hat gives the range its colonial feel and a stylish leather holdall inspires an exotic get-away.

Blue Belle

Blue Bell tells a late 80s early 90s story of simple homespun wholesomeness mixing with the quirkness of “Desperately Seeking Susan”. The look is young and lively and follows a folksy prairie vibe with washed out nautical feel and Amish influences. An accompanying influence running through the bay is drawn from the love of three cities: London, New York & Paris. The American Dream sequin clutch becomes the latest edition to the Union Jack clutch trilogy and kitsch dainty necklaces spell out “London Rocks” alongside a miniature Statue of Liberty pendant.

Jasmine

Jasmine presents the season’s feminine range of accessories, guaranteed to make every girl’s heart flutter. Taking prettiness to the next level, the collection incorporates a very modern perspective with chic Japanese influences. Pale golds, silvery greys and powder pinks provide the basis of Jasmine’s colour palette, with shots of cherry blossom red and noir providing that modern touch. Key pieces include a girly bicycle pendant, handfuls of pearls and chic muted tone clutch bags.

Aloha & Mexicana

Aloha opens summer with a vintage story inspired by islands of the South Pacific and Southern India. The lool focuses on pared-down colour with washed out tropical prints and faded block prints with Balinese motifs. Beachwear delivers eye-catching printed maxi-dresses to wear with parrot shaped earrings and stacks of eclectic bangles. Mexicana continues the Accessorize summer narrative, with Native American Navaho craft influences and South American embroidery techniques. Contemporary shapes and styling are delivered on fringed bags and essential across-the-body pouches. Key modern digital prints combine with a 1970s relaxed Moroccan feel to add a fresh approach to the trend.
