Sharpen that hot summer image with a glint of urban chic

Inexpensive jewellery is an easy way to funk up an outfit and not have to pay designer prices.

The summer Diesel collection gets its urban overtones from materials that include silver, turquoise, mother-of-pearl and coral. The six different lines are a reference to modern street culture.

Three additions join the existing Prehysterical, Denim Charms and Only The Brave lines.

For men, there is the nomadic Collage collection, with its references to Asia and ancient pilgrim routes. Items include a necklace made of mother-of-pearl horn and reconstructed coral with assorted crosses, chains and identity cylinders attached to a chain link bracelet with chunky charms.

For women, there are two new lines. The Ransom selection is inspired by the letters that might be used in a ransom note: necklaces and earrings are adorned with bold alphabet shapes and others discreetly hidden in lockets.

The Armorial line is characterised by simple chains with accessories inspired by family crests interspersed with turquoise star and heart shapes.
