Lara Bohinc

Lara Bohinc, the London based designer (http://www.larabohinc107.co.uk/) is one of my all time favourites- her pieces are instantly recognisable as her own and add instant glamour to any outfit (and they have just enough shininess for me!) and her use of plaited chain and innovative design is simply gorgeous (see her Luna eclipse necklace below for proof)



With that being said not all of us have that much money to spend on clothes, let alone accessories so I've found some jewellery in a homage to Lara Bohinc but at a fraction of the price!

ASOS have really gone all out and re-created these stunning Lara Bohinc solar eclipse bracelet and marina rosette ring. The top row of pictures are all the originals whilst those below are ASOS's homage (the asos ring is available in both silver and gold)





Next up is Accessorize with their Lux plaited bracelet which perfectly captures the essence of Lara's plaited metal detailing and intertwining design


This Topshop belt in contrasting shades of black and black snakeskin is very reminiscent of the Lara Bohinc lunar eclipse belt (shown right), albeit in a more wardrobe and purse friendly option (it also has elasticated back for comfort and ease of sizing which is even better!)
