A couple of weeks ago I attended a formal wedding. And like any girl I faced a dilema. What to wear? I chose a simple black dress, and blinged myself out with a killer necklace and corresponding bracelet. Accessories can make a whole outfit. If you find a stellar statement glitzy show-stopper I recommend pairing it with a simple, form flattering dress. A busy dress with lots of sparkle or pattern AND a crazy piece of jewelry could be too much. Here was my solution:
Necklace by Badgley Mischka. Check them out http://www.badgleymischka.com/jewelry/. Or shop for some of their awesome statement jewelry on one of my favorite web sites (Charm & Chain) http://www.charmandchain.com/designers/a-z-designers/badgley-mischka.
Don't take my word for it, Heidi Klum, Jessica Biel, Selma Hayak, Nicole Kidmond, Reese Witherspoon, Gwenyth Paltrow, Natalie Portman.... etc., etc,. Here's How the Celebs have done it on the red carpet in 2012:
Here are a couple of fab statement pieces that are currently available:
