Since SJP walked into my world in Sex and the City corsages have been a firm favourite in the accessories department. Little or large, black or coloured they can look great and take a normal outfit to glam!

The great part is they are not expensive and many now come with clips rather than pins to avoid any nasty holes, allowing you to change your outfit over and over again.

I just bought this plain black corsage to brighten up a £3 t-shirt dress I got in the sale. It takes a boring outfit to a more interesting ensemble. Sold! And this cute pink corsage is from Primark and a bargain at £1!!

Corsages have been very heavily related to the nautical trend however can look great with plain bold vest, t-shirt dresses or to dress up a simple dress.

For the very cutesy girlie look go for pretty pink however for those with a little more imagination and edge try red, black, striped or even jewelled!

The corsage does not always need to just take pride of place on your clothing, for those brave enough try one of the great hair clips or hair bands for the summer! Not everyone can pull these off but when you do they look fab.

Feeling lazy? There are always options which come with corsages in place!
