    The Holidays Are Here! Help Me Choose The Prettiest Necklace ...

    Ida Hsiang on Nov 28, 2009 9:20 AM PST
    The holidays mean food, fun gifts and lots of parties and mingling with old acquaintances and new. It's the perfect opportunity to dress to impress! But, realistically, I cannot see myself donning a fitted dress or anything that would give away the fact that maybe I snuck back to devour that second piece of pie... ok, third. Instead, a simple outfit would serve as a backdrop to a beautiful statement piece, like a necklace. A unique and gorgeous necklace shows individuality, a sense of fashion and distracts from a belly full of stuffing and sparkling cider. The only problem? There are too many glittering pieces that I would love to own and wear out there! I've narrowed it down to my favorite three, from Anthropologie: the Roped Posies necklace, the Golden Festoon necklace, and the Frayed Diamond necklace. Take the poll below and help me decide which necklace I should have for the holidays!

    Add Vintage Appeal To Your Look With A Pocket Watch Necklace!

    One accessory of the past that I wish had never gone out of style is the pocket watch necklace, or pendant watch. There's something so refined and sophisticated about this vintage-inspired timepiece, dangling elegantly from a chain and worn as a necklace, or placed carefully inside a breast pocket. While watches can also be beautiful, a watch necklace is not only eye-catching, but unique and practical as well. Is there anything else you could ask for from a piece of jewelry? With the layered look still at the forefront of jewelry trends today, a pocket watch necklace frees up a wrist from an everyday watch and allows you to pile on a few more bangles and bracelets. Plus, a pocket watch necklace nestled amongst other chains and necklaces adds interest and texture, giving the wearer a look that's both vintage and modern. Take a look at some of my favorites by clicking on the slideshow!

    Multi-Finger Rings Add Bling Without The Bulk

    What girl doesn't love jewelry and accessories? The right jewelry can make even a simple outfit of jeans and a t-shirt seem trendy and more dressed up. I'm definitely guilty of wearing a lot of jewelry all the time with necklaces, rings, bracelets and earrings on all at once. Although there are millions of beautiful rings out there though, that is the one item that cannot be piled on in multiples without running the risk of looking a certain Beatle. Cocktail rings were all the rage and still a great piece to add shine and glamour to your ensemble, but the new craze for your digits is the 2-3 finger ring. They're unique and allow you to wear a little bling on more than one finger comfortably and stylishly. Plus, they kind of resemble glorified brass knuckles so make a little more room in that purse by throwing out the pepper spray and just don one of these pretty bad boys instead! Click on the slideshow to see some of my favorite multi-finger rings and add one to your jewelry box today!

    Recession Chic: Statement Jewelry Under $50

    It's all about making a personal statement through jewelry these days. Chunky bracelets, multi-layered necklaces and huge earrings help add character and individual style to sleek outfits, but many times, these gorgeous works of wearable art cost more than we're willing to shell out. The great thing about statement jewelry is that it's eye-catching and highly memorable, but the downside is also how memorable it can be. Sure, you could wear your statement piece every day, and you'd certainly get your money's worth, but people would probably begin to notice and you might get bored of the piece yourself! Check out the slideshow for our favorite standout pieces and scoop up a few to add to your outfits- at under $50 each, you can shift your thinking to style statements, not bank statements!

    Remember when you were a little girl and nothing made you happier than having a big bow in your hair? Handle & Spout jewelry is perfect for adding just a touch of whimsy to any outfit. Started by friends Corinne Gill and Blake Ramsey as a creative refuge from their day jobs, the duo hand-makes this festive line of accessories and jewelry. Inspired by '30s and '40s glamour, they make cute and ethereal chiffon flower hair pins and larger "disco Lilly" poofs that come as a headband or hair pin. They're girly, fun, shimmery and, at under $35, they make perfect gifts for your girlfriend's birthday, a beautifully unique accessory for bridesmaids, or maybe something a bride would want to wear for that special day (say hello to something blue!). Handle and Spout round out their collection with gold and silver leather chain necklaces and headbands, an unexpected twist on the heavy metal jewelry look that's so in right now. Check out the slideshow or go to www.handlespout.com to see even more beautiful designs and purchasing details.
