Dress Up With 15 Pretty Pendant Necklaces

Marisa Tom — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 05:09:08 PST

Some statements are loud, some are subtle, and some are singularly bold. We'd like to think that rocking a pendant necklace covers all of the statement bases in one poignant swoop. There's a well-edited mix of playful, poised, neon bright, sophisticated, and sweet pendant pieces for every fashion frame of mind. Style a multicolored Oscar de la Renta brooch necklace alone for maximum effect or get a little layer happy with an Isabel Marant girlie tassel pendant and a handful of chains - it's really up to you. One thing's for sure, a pendant necklace is just as much a décolletage talking point as it is a pretty accessorizing piece. Click through to see our editors' pendant picks and shop your favorites!

Chi Diem Chau — Thu, 25 Aug 2011 12:30:45 PDT

If we didn't already swoon over Alexis Bittar enough, the handsome jewelry designer has given us more reason to love him with his Resort 2012 collection. The newly debuted lookbook immediately caught our eye with its cool surrealist-meets-fashion take showing off his famous resin designs, bright neon bracelets, standout necklaces, and standout gilded gold cuffs. A favorite of a diverse group of women varying from Lady Gaga to Michelle Obama, Alexis Bittar's line reminds us that creativity and wearability are not mutually exclusive. Check out our top three favorite pieces below:

This oversized liquid gold cuff would be perfect for Fashion Week.
Every girl needs a statement necklace; this stacked neon collar will surely garner envious looks.
This geometric ring puts a new meaning to "put a ring on it."

Alexis Bittar Talks Jewelry Essentials

Hannah Weil — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 17:32:00 PDT

Over the weekend, Alexis Bittar gave SF an intimate look at his Fall collection. Afterward, we caught up with the designer to talk jewelry essentials and his favorite pieces. The design genius has been busy - super busy - balancing editorial demands, the launch of his Spring collection, as well as a fine jewelry line to come. So, when we found ourselves with a moment to pick his brain, we couldn't help but ask what the jewelry guru might recommend for us. Granted, there's a part of us that just wants to dress up in one of the head pieces he's designed for Lady Gaga, but in terms of wearability it may not be our best bet.

Celeb Style: Julianne Moore

Hannah Weil — Tue, 02 Nov 2010 11:45:12 PDT

Julianne Moore's fresh color combo just furthers our point that unexpected pairings can be powerful. Her fuchsia top ($30, originally $90) and burnt-orange pencil skirt mesh perfectly, while black platforms give a sexy lift to the look. I'd finish with a classic croc clutch ($69, originally $120) and keep it simple with the jewels to achieve the same style. Click the items above to shop a similar look.
