The Look For Less: Vivre Beaded Rope Necklace

FabSugar — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 03:00:22 PDT

I never considered wearing a beaded rope necklace until I came across one in the jewelry sale section at Macy's. I mean, for $6, I couldn't refuse. Although I bought it to use mainly as a bracelet, it evolved into a necklace at a recent event. These Appartement a Louer Beaded Rope Necklaces ($175 each), similar to mine, are really nice, but not worth the money.

To see the look for less,

Now, $27 is much more like it. These Ravin Gems Beaded Link Necklaces ($27 each) are very similar to the one I have. Throw them on over a T-shirt for instant coolness. But wait, there's an even cheaper one . . .

Though slightly shorter, this Target Oversize Seed-Bead Link Necklace ($18) is still really awesome and good for those who don't like long necklaces. Take your pick and chain yourself.

Celebrity Style: Halle Berry

Hot mama Halle Berry visited the dentist's office in a casual, clean ensemble. I can just envision her effortlessly throwing on her Inhabit cowl-neck linen dress over a gray camisole, adding a long beaded necklace, and beaded T-strap sandals. To tie a nice bow around the look, Halle incorporated beaded bracelets, her Tom Ford sunnies, and favorite Versace bag. Au natural with a pinch of glamour.

Stars Channel the Chicest Spring Style For NYC's What to Expect Premiere - Who's Most Fab?

Hannah Weil — Wed, 09 May 2012 08:21:02 PDT

Last night's What to Expect When You're Expecting premiere drew out the film's stars and style stars alike at NYC's AMC Lincoln Square Theater. There, the night was just as much about the red carpet as it was about the movie, with the film's leading ladies, Brooklyn Decker, Elizabeth Banks, and Cameron Diaz treating us to the chicest kind of Spring dressing. Brooklyn's pal Chrissy Teigen also stepped out to celebrate the movie, opting for a flirty sequin skirt topped with a crisp white blazer. Cameron Diaz played to the menswear trend in an understated white button-down and black trousers, offset with a statement chain necklace. Elizabeth Banks brought the dressiest look in a floral, beaded, and cutout Peter Pilotto sheath, while Brooklyn Decker took a more minimalist approach in a body-skimming white strapless, finished with gold accents and creamy platforms. Each showed off her own brand of seasonal event wear, now we're asking you to pick favorites - who gets your vote for best dressed at last night's premiere?

Met Gala: Rachel Zoe

Looks like Rachel Zoe, in one of her own white fringed creations, was just one of a handful of celebs to have the Roaring '20s on their minds. Her off-the-shoulder, flapper-inspired gown embodied her signature style - bohemian, retro, and totally cool - all on its own. Of course, no Rachel Zoe ensemble is complete without a serious dose of vintage costume jewelry. She adorned the fringe-laden dress with an oversize beaded-and-shelled statement necklace, a gold bangle, and a blush-toned box clutch. What's the verdict on her outfit?

Look of the Day: To the Max

Fab reader Vane Ferrer styled up a breezy and bright ensemble - three words: orange maxi skirt. She paired the bold statement skirt with a slouchy white t-shirt then topped the Spring look off with a cool leather jacket and an oversized black bead necklace. Because of the brights on bottom, she didn't have to do much in the way of accessorizing, only adding aviator sunglasses and a gold watch. It's a fun outfit with a lot to say - certainly a punchy option for your daytime wardrobe.

Congrats Vane Ferrer!

Everyone else, submit your looks, and we might just feature you on FabSugar!
