Sometimes when it comes round to party season, all the Christmas shopping means the outfit budget is tighter than expected. Not so much little black dress as little vintage dress...from last year.
So we rather like this pearl collar from Miss Selfridge. Layer it over last year's little black dress, and no one will even notice you're wearing the same thing. Then, when you're back to work, layer it over a crisp white shirt and slim trousers for a smart chic look, or over a t-shirt during the day for a cute twist.
If you're a fan of pearls, this collar is a pretty alternative to a long necklace. And at £18 it's an accessory that will definitely earn its worth this winter.
