On Our Radar: Tiffany Gets Framed

It has been the go-to company for engagement rings and diamonds for 170 years now.

It has been the go-to company for engagement rings and diamonds for 170 years now. While diamonds may be Tiffany's best friend, it has chosen to let the sunshine in with a new addition: posh specs.

The jewelry house is expanding into eyewear starting this holiday season, both of the opthalmic and sun persuasions. Styles include the sterling silver and diamond Lace glasses, the Tiffany Bubbles, which have crystals running along the side, and the Return to Tiffany, featuring the brand's signature sterling silver oval plaque on the side. How very.

You have probably noticed all the Sugar girls' new Fall looks that debuted this week. Which one is your favorite?! Obviously you know which look I am partial too...but here's something that takes the Sugar frosted cake. CocoChic went ahead and found all our outfits on the cheap in the Frugalosity! group. Here's Fab's look for way cheaper then it actually is. And for those who were asking, Fab's new look costs $4,925. What can I say: I have expensive taste.

Be sure to check out CocoChic's post for the rest of the Sugar girls' outfits on the cheap — she did such an amazing job.

Designer Spotlight: Del Forte Denim

How many times have you wanted to have your cake and eat it too?

How many times have you wanted to have your cake and eat it too? Tierra Del Forte didn't think girls should have to choose between the environment and looking good in their trusty jeans.

After visiting garment factories and seeing what a destructive impact the fashion industry has on the environment, Tierra founded her line Del Forte Denim in 2005, eager to produce denim that is both distinctive in design and ethically made. Mission accomplished: Del Forte jeans are made of 100 percent organic cotton in LA, and a portion of their proceeds goes to The Sustainable Cotton Project.

Del Forte is available at Tobi and run $176-$198.

The Bag To Have: M Missoni Wool Knit Bag

Minus the gaudy gold "M" pendant, this M Missoni Wool Knit Bag ($695) is exquisite.

Minus the gaudy gold "M" pendant, this M Missoni Wool Knit Bag ($695) is exquisite. It's a good investment for those who covet the famous Missoni pattern but not the price tag.

Though it's still rather expensive, there are several perks to this purse. Firstly, the shape is just right; not too big, not too small. I also love the ruched leather handles and the shoulder strap. The black and grey pattern is unique, and very Missoni. Most importantly, I can see this bag matching almost anything...and when spending a paycheck or two on a purse, that's something to consider.

Celebrity Style: Kelly Clarkson

Kelly Clarkson attended the Motorola Party last night looking girlie chic in a Juicy Couture ruffled dress and heart earrings. I enjoy seeing Kelly in feminine frocks because it's such a difference from her more tough on-stage characters. The low peep-toe Loubs were also a great choice, as I can't see Kelly rockin' the usual celeb favored 5-inch stilettos. Way to keep it real, Kelly.

Fab Ad: Gucci Cruise 2008

Gucci's on a roll.

Gucci's on a roll. First they come out with gorgeous fine jewelry ads with Drew Barrymore and now they hit us with a Cruise 2008 campaign featuring models Natasha Poly and Julien Ferre.

These ads stand out mainly due to the color scheme and the desert setting. The pristine turquoise sky looks beautiful next to the dry sand and rugged concrete. There's an air of desperation in the models' eyes, like they're dehydrated and on the run...yet they still manage to look utterly gorgeous. I especially love the collage style photography. What do you think?

To shop the collection, visit Bergdorf Goodman.
