Audrey Tautou Wears The Chanel Cometes Star Pendant

Natalie Zee Drieu on Nov 11, 2009 5:17 AM PST

I've had a few people ask me about the star necklace Audrey Tautou is wearing in the Chanel No. 5 print ad and TV commercial. She's wearing a piece from Chanel Fine Jewelry -- the Star Pendant in 18K white gold and diamonds from the constellation-inspired Comets collection. There's both a large and small version -- Audrey is wearing the large. Call or visit a Chanel boutique for prices, and don't forget to check out Coquette for more designer fashion finds!

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

Ida Hsiang on Nov 6, 2009 2:24 PM PST

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!

Stylishly Spooky Halloween Jewelry You'll Want To Wear All ...

Alex Gambardella on Oct 13, 2009 2:17 PM PDT

Who says you need a campy store-bought costume to be festive this Halloween? I'm all for dressing up, but there's more to getting into the haunted holiday spirit than black lipstick and fishnets. If you're a jewelry gal (but then again, what girl isn't?), there are tons of trendy Halloween-themed charms, pendants, bangles, and even cocktail rings that are bound to appeal to your inner trick-or-treater. This Swarovski Ghost Charm is an adorably festive addition to any charm bracelet or keychain, and if you aren't a huge arachnophobe like I am, this spider ring from Betsey Johnson is appropriately gothic-chic. But just because they're perfect for the spooky season doesn't mean they're too kitschy to wear after the 31st -- this skull-embellished wrap bracelet by Alexander McQueen will still be stylish even after all your candy has been devoured! Browse through the slideshow for some of my favorite festive jewelry!

Hot In The Hive: Diamonds On My Neck Necklace

Anna Yu on Jun 17, 2009 6:24 AM PDT

Ever since Marilyn Monroe famously sang a breathy rendition of "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" in the 1953 film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, that one phrase has been the motto for the women who love their diamonds. Sure, every girl would love to be draped in jewels by Harry Winston or Tiffany's, but can we really afford it without creditors hounding our every step? There's no need to be disheartened because there's more than a fair share of wallet-friendly bling out there! Take a look at the Diamonds On My Neck Necklace for instance. For less than $25, you'll get a cutout brass diamond shaped pendant. A sure conversation piece, you can wear it alone or pile it on with the rest of your faux-bling! It's not a substitute for the real thing of course, but shouldn't your real best friend be someone you can actually have a conversation with?

Price: $24
Who Found It: sofiabb was first to add the Diamonds On My Neck Necklace to the Hive.

Create An Art Nouveau-Inspired Shrink-Art Pendant!

Anna Yu on Jun 4, 2009 7:19 AM PDT

Susan Beal is a contributor at Craftstylish, a site dedicated to do-it-yourself crafts and fashionable art projects! Below, she shares a fun how-to on creating your very own Art Nouveau inspired pendant! Pick up some sheets of shrink plastic at your local craft store or online and use it to create a vintage-inspired pendant piece! I traced a romantic, swirly pattern onto white plastic and used it as the basis for a red-and-black pendant on a beaded chain. The sky is the limit with shrink art, so you can freehand or use specific designs for inspiration. Adding sparkly faceted beads along both sides of the adjustable chain, and as a decorative dangle at the clasped end, is a fun way to embellish the overall design. Click on over to Craftstylish for the full step-by-step instructions, along with loads of other inspiring do-it-yourself projects!
