If there's one time of year to bring out the big guns in your jewelry box, it's the holidays. And, as Ashlee Simpson demonstrates, major drop earrings make quite the statement. Dropped and jeweled, glittering and gold, this is elegant statement jewelry at its best. For the full effect, look for earrings with three to four jeweled sections on the drop, and big, bold-hued stones to play up the drama.
Now that we've mastered Fall basics, it's time to shift our focus to the cool accoutrements. That means moody jewels in deep hues and mixed metals to echo the season's darker palette. Think purple and black stones, layered chains, and dramatic drop earrings, then click on to shop 10 pieces to channel the vibe.
Anna Kendrick stepped out for last night's Elle and Express 25 at 25 event in a look that's equal parts edgy and chic. A poppy-hued, one-shoulder mini ($88) is eye-catching on its own, but add a leather jacket and the look goes from elegant to edgier glamour. She finishes the look with a classic timepiece ($55) and nude-hued Jimmy Choos. Click the items above to shop a similar style.

Contrary to popular belief, tan accessories are far from boring. In fact, these understated hues can instantly uplift an ensemble. Case in point: Caroline Sieber. The extraordinary stylist contrasted her tenacious tan accessories — a woven belt and sandals — with a shimmery ethereal dress at the Serpentine Gallery Summer soiree. The juxtaposition between the shiny and neutral hues is practically genius. We're all over this one, are you?
There were some interesting looks at a party for YSL's new fragrance Belle D'Opium in NYC last night — including Ashley Olsen's creative hair wrap. But Whitney Port's black and nude Yigal Azrouel dress made a quiet, cool statement. And this girl is never afraid to load on the rockin' jewelry. An armload of studded mixed metal bracelets, chunky rings, and rhinestone chandelier earrings provided some serious sparkle. Black snake pumps and a wristlet bag kept things dark and moody.
