Shine bright like diamanté!

Judging by the recent fashion shoot loans at Vintage Modes, it seems the trend for diamanté is stronger than ever. We've moved on from minimalism and become a little bored of normcore: glitzy jewels offer us a touch of splendour to our workday outfits, be that a denim jacket or a humble cardi. The aim is to look fresh and resolutely glamorous!

The jewellery to seek out now is about all-out old-fashioned sparkle. Here's our top pick of dazzling pieces from Vintage Modes that are chic not showy...
