Nature is a massive print and colour inspiration this summer with designers such as Stella Mc Cartney and Balenciaga both adopting beautiful floral prints in vibrant hues to celebrate Mother Earth. This recognition of our fragile planet also comes at a time when environmental concerns and the move towards eco-friendly living is becoming increasingly apparent.

The butterfly is proving to be extremely popular particularly amongst jewellery designers who recognise its beautiful pendant potential. Butterfly necklaces; designer and highstreet are popping up everywhere this season and here are two of my favourites!

This stunning Kenneth Jay Lane Gold butterfly necklace to the left is by a designer that is renowned for his glamorous jewellery collections. This gold plated necklace has a striking butterfly pendant that will look fab during the day with a floaty white kaftan or a pretty day dress. For £55, this necklace can be purchased from Net-a-porter.

If you’re on more of a budget check out Miss Selfridge’s Butterfly and Dragonfly accessory collection. This purple dragonfly necklace is fun and flirty and for £8 you can’t go wrong!
