    Jessie Spano was the brains and Kelly Kapowski was the beauty, but it was Lisa Turtle who had all the style. Saved by the Bell's resident style expert and gossip queen was sassy with sophisticated taste -- heck, she was even accepted into the Fashion Institute of Technology on the show's finale. But could we pull off her over-the-top look? To the rescue with some tips on making it work: our in-house fashion expert Brian. Brian says Lisa's wild style is back in a big way with graphic fit-and-flare dresses and light-wash denim jackets. Turn down the volume on her high-intensity style by sticking to tamer prints with fewer colors. Check out more of Lisa Turtle's style by clicking over to our friends at Lemondrop!

    It's really strange to go out now and see that Converse Chuck Taylor high-tops are still being worn by school kids. I think of Chucks as the shoe that sort of defined Generation X, and to see that they're still so popular is kind of nice. Chucks are great because not only do they look cool, they can be adapted to go with just about any casual outfit, and to say that they're comfortable is the understatement of the century. You even see some people pushing the look to the limit, wearing their Chucks with formal wear. There's really no end to what you can do with these shoes. The good thing is that these days, you can get Converse Chucks in all the standard colors, but also in some interesting new styles. So whether you're into classic looks, or rule breaking, there will always be a pair of Chucks out there for you. Click over to our friends at TheFind for more on these cool kicks!

    Give Back In Throwback Style With Trinkets By Double K Jewelry

    Recycling just got much more chic with Double K Jewelry! The line started when designer Kelleigh Kincaid was looking for some jewelry pieces that had a more personal touch and a tad more soul than what she could find in stores. Inspired by ages past, she draws on the art nouveau movement and the turn of the century for inspiration in creating her interesting pieces. Her ideas aren't the only thing that comes from the past, however; the necklaces and earrings are created using vintage and recycled items that are reworked into modern day wearable pieces. The Spring 2009 "Maltese Falcon" collection was inspired by the glamour of 1920s San Francisco. Vintage deco pendants, oxidized chains, and even vintage clock parts become long necklaces perfect for layering and pairing with delicate pendant earrings. Not only is the line eco-friendly and recycled, the designer also pledges to donate 10% of the proceeds to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. Check out the slideshow to see some of my personal favorite styles, then take a look at their website DoubleKJewelry.com for a complete store listing!
