The Look For Less: Givenchy Multi-Layer Chain Necklace

FabSugar — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 09:00:08 PDT

Her Madge-esty looked fittingly regal and gothic when she recently donned Givenchy's multi-layer chain necklace from his Fall collection. Something about the combination of all-black and heavy Mr. T-style chains is seriously lethal, in a good way. We can thank the brand's designer Riccardo Tisci for injecting feminine goth into our closets. Now if only said injection didn't bruise our bank accounts so badly . . .

To see the look for less,

My heart skipped a beat when I saw this Marciano Cynthia Multi-Layer Cross Necklace ($198), because it meant I could look designer but not adopt its spending habits. True, the price tag isn't cheap, but it beats paying thousands for the real deal. The way I see it, it's an investment necklace, and will be worth every penny when you get compliments left and right.

Look of the Day: Leopard Meets Brights

Laura Marie Given — Mon, 28 May 2012 03:00:42 PDT

Fab reader ppfgirl brought chic sophistication to the bright-pants trend by adding animal print and and classic gold accessories. She paired cropped kelly-green pants with a breezy leopard-print blouse before grabbing a structured two-tone tote that coordinated with the neutral shades of her top. Along with cool aviators, she dressed up the look with bold accessories: a long chain necklace, a gold menswear watch, and a mix of gold and yellow bracelets. Topping off her polished style? Colorblocked heels in nude, black, and neon orange for a fun, unexpected pop of color that adds personality to the outfit.

Congrats, ppfgirl!

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?

What's Your Sign, Beautiful? Taurus (April 21-May 20)

Jaime Richards — Sat, 21 Apr 2012 02:20:00 PDT

If you're a Taurus, you can be described as patient, decisive, and reliable. And while you're likely a lover of luxury, your practicality ensures you won't take your need for quality goods to levels of excess. When times are tough, you may be considered temperamental and resentful, but your warm-hearted nature makes up for it in the long run. Famous Taureans include: Janet Jackson, Rosario Dawson, Penelope Cruz, Kirsten Dunst, Jessica Alba, Tina Fey, Malin Akerman, Adele, and Cate Blanchett.

To bring out your inner Taures beauty: Think green. As an earth sign, greenish tones (your color) appeal to you, while bright, bold tones tend to take a back seat. The throat and neck are your focus body parts, so be sure to spritz on perfume and try hairstyles (such as updos) to bring attention to the area.

The Life Aquatic: Go Under the Sea With Spring's Soft Mermaid Vibe

Brittney Stephens — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 11:44:43 PDT

It looks like we'll be traveling under the sea for Spring 2012 - if the runways at Versace, Chanel, Jenny Packham, and Givenchy were any indication, the deep-sea fantasies from your childhood have been given a sexy, grown-up spin, and the results are pure magic. The trend isn't overdone with obvious fishtail hems or ripples of blue, but rather with clean, subtle nods to the ebbs and flows of the ocean - just see Jenny Packham's long, lithe silhouettes, Donatella Versace's seahorse-print separates, Givenchy's pretty pailettes, and the pearl-encrusted looks at Chanel (lest we forget Florence Welch performing in a giant clamshell on the runway). Not feeling all-over fish scales? You can still achieve the look in small doses with a pretty coral necklace, a delicate lace top, or layers of pearl chains.

Jessica Simpson Shows Off Her Pregnancy Style During a Friendly Shopping Trip

Lauren Turner — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 14:27:32 PDT

Jessica Simpson met up with a friend to go shopping at Fred Segal in Santa Monica yesterday. She covered up her baby bump in a black maxi dress and sweater while hanging onto her red YSL handbag and sporting new Victoria Beckham sunglasses. Jessica accessorized with a long gold necklace, which was different from the delicate chain she was recently spotted wearing. Jessica wore an "M" initial necklace last month, adding to rumors that she and fiancé Eric Johnson are planning to name their baby girl, Maxwell, which is Eric's middle name. The couple are getting ready for the arrival of their first child, and already celebrated with a baby shower. Jessica wore blue for the mostly pink fete that included guests Cacee Cobb, her sister Ashlee, and mom Tina.

Kate Moss Nails Spring's Gypsy Trend - Here's How to Get the Look

Chi Diem Chau — Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:36:26 PDT

If Spring's exotic gypsy trend, as seen on the runways of Etro, Balmain, and Missoni, seemed difficult to translate into your everyday wardrobe, look to Kate Moss for inspiration. Moss is an expert when it comes to bohemian cool styling - she's been rocking the look for over a decade now - and her latest outfit nails the trend perfectly for the transitional season. The key to getting the gypsy look done right is to keep the focus on one piece. We love how Kate paired her black and gold sheer embroidered peasant top with dark flared jeans and simple boots. Then, finish off the look with exotic accessories via reptilian-print satchel bags, thin scarves, and chain-mail necklaces. When you fully transition into Summer, try pairing a bohemian printed maxi skirt with a simple tank and sandals for a laid-back, nomadic look. On board? Shop our picks now in the widget below.
