Get the right look with their range of Accessories for Autumn and Winter.  Jaeger Accessories provide the finishing touch to any look, combining great style with timeless sophistication

  • Warwick Tote: £250.00

Works for any body shape and body size!

  • St. James Large: £299.00

Great choice for most body shapes- just not for inverted triangle body shape

  • Silk Crystal Clutch: £125.00

A special occasion clutch that works for all body shapes, just that a pear body shape is better adviced to carry it under their arms rather holding it.  It is exactly the opposite for the inverted triangle.


  • Bedford Buckle Purse: £99.00

It makes especially a great investment buys for women who have the dominant colour soft, warm and deep.

  • Catwalk Ring Belt: £90.00

It is only suitable for women who have a normal to a long waist. A waist belt needs space to sit and fit. Otherwise it will be just moving up and down in the waist area.

  • Lips Print Scarf £40.00

Best for women with an average to long neck. No matter if it is thin or medium wide. Just not a good choice for women with a short and/or wide neck. Scarf need space to “breath” otherwise they clutter the little space between face and   shoulder.

The Satchel Crush!

This bag trend started with Alexa Chung and it will stay on high trend alert as well for next season for autumn/winter.

But how to wear it right? The Satchel can come as a handbag, shoulder bag or cross body bag- each of them come with their own set of rules.
Satchel Handbag
  • It works for all body shape unless it comes with heavy embellishments , colour blocks or bright look at me colours. In that case the pear shape should avoid these types since it is drawing the attention to the wrong body part.
Satchel Shoulder bag
  • Look out for the ones that have an adjustable shoulder strap that you can adjust, so that you it works for your shape.
  • Neat Hourglass and Lean Columns can wear them as they like. Full hourglass should wear them not too close to their bust, Apple Shape should even lower the strap even more so it doesn’t add volume to their tummy area. Since most the shape is more squarish the rectangle shape should avoid to wear the satchel in the waist area- either higher or lower are best. The same stands for women with a short waist and for the inverted triangles- but for other reasons.The lower satchel sits the better, because it will balance off their broader shoulders. The higher it sits or the closer it gets to bust or shoulder the more volume it adds to that part.
  • Best use is if it has as well a removable shoulder strap, so you put the bag to multi use.

Jeans- Show your true Colour!

Add character to your jeans with elaborate treatments, rinses and colour.

These offer a cool, retro, chic and the most fashionable take on denim.

  • Nowadays you can pick between many different washes: Dark or chalky rinses, streaks, sandblasting and over-dyed tints are the methods of choice.
  • Use differences in fading and dyeing to your advantage – we all know that dark shades are more slimming than light, but a darker rinse along the inner thighs will also create the illusion of leaner legs.
  • If you don’t have perfectly shaped legs be careful when choosing washes since they will add volume to your leg and accentuate bigger hips, bottoms, thighs and short legs. Less is more here!
  • Stick to finishes that look as natural as possible. Washes that look contrived look wrong. Over-treated jeans appear garish – you want to achieve a naturally worn effect.
  • Distressed Look: There are several different techniques to make the jeans or denim jackets look old and worn. Most of these techniques involve actual sandblasting or abrading by some kind of power tool. Another popular way to make jeans appear damaged is to cut the edges at bottom, pockets, fly and knee area before the (stone)washing.

  • But beware that choosing the right “character” for your jeans needs strategy. You need to put rinses, colour and treatments in context with your bust, body shape, height and proportion. By modifying the lines of your clothing you can create visual balance otherwise you risk adding volume or putting the focus on features that are less flattering. It is not about following about every single trend that is out there but only the ones that work for you.
