A Splash of Purple on the Red Carpet
Posted July 21st, 2008

Jewel toned dresses in bright bold colors strike the right key on big nights. Grey’s Anatomy’s Sara Ramirez and Forgetting Sarah Marshall’s Kristen Bell wore gorgeous royal purple strapless dresses when they glided down the red carpet this year. Sara looked fantastic at January’s Screen Actors Guild Awards in her Angel Sanchez gown, and Kristen’s cute Jill Stuart minidress was a hit at last week’s ESPY Awards. Sara played up her dress with silver and diamonds, and Kristen flirted with gold, which goes to show that you can make any outfit work with either, depending on the look you’re going for.
To get Sara Ramirez’s stacked bracelet look, try either the silver or gold bracelets from the Blu Textured Bangles, Kenneth Jay Lane Single Pyramid Cuff, and Blu Diamond Cuff Bracelets sets. Love the way Sara’s smile shines as brightly as her drop earrings? You can dazzle the camera on your big night with the Calico Juno Chandelier Drop Earrings, and finish your look with the Lorelei Gold Crackle Mary Clutch.
Kristen Bell kept her jewelry to a minimum, pairing two gold bangle bracelets with a gorgeous pendant on a yellow gold chain. Choose two of the Lisa Stewart Gold Gem Bangles or snag all three if you’re inspired by Kristen’s look. For a bit of trendy vintage charm, slip on the Melinda Maria Pod Cuff; the double bracelet will create the illusion of two unusal bracelets joined by a gorgeous centerpiece. Adding a wild card to the mix never hurt anyone, and the 22k yellow gold plated Pade Vavra Snake Cuff is one that will take your look from beautiful to gorgeous.
We love the risk Kristen took with her necklace length. Often we pair our strapless dresses with short necklace chains, or we opt not to wear a necklace like Sara did at the SAG Awards, or a short choker-style necklace. A princess or matinee necklace style with a chain that skims the top of your dress is a flattering trend that offers balance when you wear a strapless dress. Either the Kenneth Jay Lane White Flower Necklace or the Gorjana Gold Cupid Necklace are perfect lengths that you can wear to capture the look.

The Sky’s the Limit
Posted July 17th, 2008
There are all sorts of looks you can create, so long as you’re willing to take some risks. What happens when you dabble with silver jewelry, flirt with gold and gemstones, and go all out with all three? Well, for one thing, you’re going to have a chic look that’s totally you. Are you ready to shake things up?
The allure of Sterling Silver is: the versatility of the surface’s cool shiny luster, and our extensive collection of Silver Fashion Jewelry is so fantastic we’re sure you’ll find something you love. The great thing is that when you’re selecting your jewelry, you don’t have to stay within one brand and you can scroll through several brands’ silver jewelry designs at once and mix and match different pieces.
Jennifer Zeuner Sterling Silver Serpent Charm Bracelet is a stunning piece for your look, and matches the Exhibitionist Sterling Silver Pave Snake Earrings perfectly. Lisa Stewart’s vintage Silver Teardrop Necklace great when you add one of Christie Martin’s Old English Initial Necklace. If you have a second piercing, the Arena Copenhagen Love Silver Heart Studs will soften your look.
If you’re wearing gold jewelry, soften your image by adding colorful gemstones to the mix. Kacey K’s rose and yellow gold Two Tone Monogram Ring has the sort of appeal that’s glamorous and charming. Rebecca Norman Pink Tourmaline Teardrop Earrings have a delicate appeal, and the pink tourmaline gemstones will sparkle alongside the rose gold of the Kacey K ring. One, two, three, four, it’s up to you how wear it. The funky hammered Gorjana Gold Square Stackable Rings are bring just the right amount of spice to this look. Add the Jessica Elliot Gold Iron Ornate Lariat and the Jami Rodriguez Tangled Nature Necklace for an unusual layered necklace look, and the Rebecca Norman Gold Bangle Set to complete the ensemble.
Feeling bold? Don’t be scared to skirt the rule of mixing silver with gold. This is one rule that was meant to be broken. If you see 2 gemstones on different designs that look good, go for it and make it work! Playing with fire and knowing you won’t get burned has never been more fun.
Pair the Kacey K Cutout Single Letter Gold Mongram Necklace with the Arena CPH Malil Necklace to get a look that’s put together and chic. Personalized monogram pendants look great with gemstones. The Exhibitionist Sterling Silver Serpent and Pyramid Stone Ring is an impressive sturdy ring that will finish your look with quite a bit of style, and it will look great with the Tracy Matthews Marquise Faceted Bracelet. Add a playful element with one of Jessica Kagan Cushman’s quote bangles. Her “Never Give Up,” or “I Want to Be the Girl with the Most Cake” bangles might be exactly what you want for tonight. Lata K Black Onyx Illusion Long Earrings is the perfect finishing touch; Kenneth Jay Lane Black Wood Teardrop Earrings are a great substitute if you’d like a more playful look. It’s all about how you put your jewelry together, and how it reflects your personality or mood. The possibilities to do just that are truly endless at Max and Chloe, because with hundreds of designs by so many fabulous designers, you’re bound to find some unusual creations that fit together as if they were made just for you!

When it’s Classic, it’ll Last Forever
Posted July 16th, 2008

It only takes seconds after Audrey Hepburn crosses the busy New York street in Breakfast at Tiffany for us to take in her timeless style and realize something magical is about to happen. The little black dress, noir sunglasses, pearls, and low heeled pumps quickly became a fashion formula for women all around the world. Trends may come and go and fads will always fade in and out as quickly as the seasons change, but looks that are both elegant and classic will withstand the test of time. Though Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, and Elizabeth Taylor made their indelible marks on Hollywood over thirty years ago, their classic looks have remained something to aspire to.
It’s essential to find gorgeous knockout pieces that are understated and demure (at first glance!) to perfect this class act. Since diamonds will always be a girl’s best friend all the way to the end, add Brian Danielle’s 14k white gold Diamond Blossom Necklace, the Zasha White Gold Hatched Ring, and the Tracy Matthews’ Delicate Single Textured Ribbon Bracelet for a look that’s reminiscent of these iconic women.
You’ll look classically elegant in a pair of tiny stud earrings. Try Brian Danielle’s White Gold Multi Diamond Studs for a splurge and Tracy Matthews’ Sterling Silver Nugget Studs if you’re looking to save. The sterling silver Jessica Elliot Antique Rosary with Clover and Pearls and the Exhibitionist Sterling Silver Serpent and Pyramid Stone Ring are great alternatives!
Just because you’re following in these fashion icons’ footsteps doesn’t mean you have to avoid color or gold jewelry. Add a splash of color with the Marcia Moran Blue Quartz Ring and Tracy Matthews’ Smooth Medium Cuff to make your night even more special. Try our recommendations, and look to designers like Brian Danielle, Kacey K, Kenneth Jay Lane, Tracy Matthews, Jessica Elliot, and Zasha for jewelry that twinkles with the vintage Hollywood classic style you crave.

We’ve added 14 of her designs to Max and Chloe, and we’re confident that you’ll find something you love.

Her approach to the charm bracelets of your youth and the personalized jewelry trend is both groundbreaking and chic as she’s created something we’ve never seen before. Her charms alone are everyday ones like a heart and a peace sign, but she adds cool twists and unexpected aspects to the designs. The most prominent twist is the unusual combinations of these charms create wonderful messages about life and love. The GK Designs Lucky Love Necklace has a CZ horseshoe side by side with a pearl and a rose gold hammered heart charm, and the message is that love and luck go hand in hand.
The vintage theme of her custom made hammered disks, and the jeweled wishbone and horseshoe charms are simply irresistible. The GK Designs Lucky, Peace and Believe Charms have hammered disks with the meaning of each symbol engraved on the surfaces. The GK Designs personalized disks are made with genuine sterling silver, and there are small and medium initial charm necklaces and the Custom Sterling Silver Disk necklace, which can hold up to 10 letters. The novelty of these GK Designs will never fade, and you’ll definitely fall in love with any one of these necklaces.
