The collared shirt has been a closet staple since the beginning of garments and recently we've been seeing more stars spruce up their boyfriend's shirt with a little razzle dazzle!
When Contributing Editor, Geri Hirsch (of Because I'm Addicted) spotted Emily Browning in an embellished Phillip Lim top, we knew that this was a DIY made in be-dazzled Heaven!
This easy technique can be done in an array of different colors, shapes and sizes ... or use a variety like we did! Skip the statement necklace and ice your neck with this DIY tip that looks lovely worn on its own or styled peaking out from under your sweater! Now we'll show you how to Do-It-Yourself!
Here's what you'll need -
Collared shirt
Rhinestones to cover the collar in color and shape of your choice. We used a variety pack.
Fabric glue or E-6000 adhesive
Step 1 - Find a cool collared shirt (Try Goodwill!) and jewels at your local crafts store (We love Micheal's)!
Step 2 - Lay collar flat, arranging jewels how you'd like them to look
Step 3 - Glue each jewel down and let dry. Watch your plain shirt become a unique, one of a kind piece!

Outrageous accessories to compliment your ensemble can often make or break an outfit and sometimes staying safe also means staying boring. A new jewelry trend that is here to stay is the bib necklace, a gorgeous cluster of jewels, fabric, beading and other pretty things near the neck and cascading down the decollete. Usually, bib necklaces are not only extravagant, but reserved for evening occasions and fancy affairs. Now that summer is upon us, jewelry designers are giving the bib necklace a lighter, more feminine and versatile makeover. Flowers and floral motifs give these showstopping pieces a softer, more girly edge while summery fabrics and colors make them work equally well with casual attire, or as a stunning accent piece at a stylish social event. Add a few pretty petals and give your summer wardrobe a head-turning spin with floral bib necklaces and make a statement wherever your summer season may take you!
