So, what's in for 2009-2010? Similar to last year, the 2009-2010 fall and winter trends are all about “statement pieces” – anything bold, unique, interesting and most importantly, pieces that can be added onto any plain outfit and instantly spice it up. This season many designers are also using flower motives and nature inspiration.

This means that large extravagant necklaces and massive chains are in, with plenty of metal and stones to help them create an eye-popping look. Heavy round pendants and silver pendants with precious and semiprecious stones are also in style this season. Another hot trend this season is jewellery with geometrical shapes like cubes, ovals, triangles and squares. An additional way to add some great value to your Autumn/Winter 2009-2010 wardrobe is with sparkles and crystals that add some glamour to simple day pieces or classic eveningwear.

Feeling the need for a recession-budgeted wardrobe? You'll be happy to know that lots of the beads and chunky jewellery of 2008 are still sticking around, making it that much easier for the budgeted fashionista. Also, by buying a few statement pieces, as opposed to numerous simpler pieces can allow you to save some money while creating a signature look for yourself. Wearing one statement item at a time with your favourite outfit and changing the accessory each time can freshen a look instantly without digging into your wallet.

So while you may be feeling the chill of the fall-winter season, you’ll be looking hot with big and bold statement-piece and nature-inspired jewellery that has inspired so many fashionistas this past year. Embrace this unique and bold look and accessorize on ladies!
