Halle Berry’s Summer Chic Style
Posted July 24th, 2008

Halle Berry stepped out in Los Angeles last month in a great white summer dress and a few well placed accessories. She kept things simple and balanced - her small gold bracelet looked great with the slim necklace she had around her neck, and her stacked black bracelets offered an interesting contrast with her crisp white dress and ivory and gold handbag.

Love Halle’s laidback chic look? Follow our 7 jewelry and handbags recommendations to rock Halle’s style:

Presh Leather Studded Bracelets (1) are great edgy bracelets that are perfect for spicing up your everyday look. Monogrammed and personalized necklaces can be your trademark. Have your initial, your child’s, pet’s or significant other’s intial engraved on a GK Designs Medium Sterling Silver Initial Charm (2). Try the Zoe Chicco Personalized Yellow Gold Script Initial Necklace (3) if you like scripted lettering or would like to soften your look. You can’t go wrong if you pair one of the Presh bracelets with the Goldenbleu Black Patent Gemma Bag (4), and with a bag as roomy and spacious as this one, it’s the ideal carryall.

We love Halle’s look so much because she’s mastered the art of balancing her outfits; if you have a stack of bracelets on one hand, keep your other hand light and free with just one bracelet. Try the beautiful slim Tracy Matthews Marquise Faceted Bracelet (5) on one wrist, and pile on the Alex and Ani Silver Tigris Beaded Expandable Wire Bangles (6) and the Ettika Phaistos Gold Coin Bracelet (7) with the Presh bracelet for a great layered bracelet look. Now you’re all set to look stunning when you step outside this summer!

Elegance, Redefined
Posted July 23rd, 2008

Elegance is the name of the game. The objective? Look as beautiful as possible for each and every formal occasion you may encounter this summer. Formal occasions - weddings, masquerade balls, cocktail parties - give the perfect opportunity to look gorgeous without needing an excuse. With these finds, all eyes will be on you the entire night.

Frost your neckline with a beautiful piece, such as the Jessica Elliot Gold Iron Blossom Lariat. This necklace is refined yet interesting; it will have everyone wondering where you found such a gorgeous thing! Remind all attendees that your name is one to remember with the Zoe Chicco Large Engraved Gold Rectangle necklace. This necklace and other personalized items are traditional yet very sophisticated. For cocktail parties, don the Samantha House Pearl Daggar Necklace and challenge the traditional concept of a pearl necklace. If you prefer a more modern treasure, put on the Leila Asymmetrical Open Square Necklace. With crystal accents, this necklace is unusual and quite memorable. At the end of the night, one necklace will be truly unforgettable: Lata K Illusion Eclipse Japanese Pearl Necklace. There are not enough words to convey the graceful and breathtaking nature of this necklace. Hanging daintily from your neck, you will be the stand out attendee of whichever formal occasion you may attend.

Earrings can often make or break an outfit. Putting on a dazzling pair of earrings always makes you feel beautiful. Light up your formal night with Arena CPH Barbie Silver Earrings. These are delicate and sophisticated - a wonderful addition to a gorgeous dress. Have you been looking for the perfect pair of elongated earrings? Try Calico Juno Siren Loop Earrings. Another option is Tracy Matthews Gold Kasmir Chain Earrings; these are elegant and charming. Sometimes the perfect touch can only be acquired with diamonds. In these cases, Brian Danielle Diamond Drop Earrings are the perfect earrings. Worn with a sleek cocktail dress, these earrings will make you appear to have walked straight off the red carpet.

No elegant evening apparel is complete without a sparkling bracelet hanging gracefully from your wrist. The Jessica Elliot Silver Wrought Iron Cuff is stunning. With an intricate design, it will have people looking at your wrist over and over again. For those of you with a taste for antiques and vintage jewelry, the Jill Jacobson Modern Filigree Cuff is your bracelet. The design brings nostalgia of older days but has a modern twist of crystal accents. Perhaps you prefer a delicate cuff with an original look? Slip the Melinda Maria Pod Cuff on your wrist, stand in front of a mirror and admire your reflection: you look great! A final recommendation is the Marcia Moran Oval Cuff. Simple yet ornate, this piece is so beautiful it will have everyone complimenting your appearance.

With your fingernails polished and freshly manicured, it’s absolutely necessary to show off your beautiful hands! Slip on an eye-catching ring that will have everyone looking. Try Tracy Matthews 18K Gold Stackable Rings for an ensemble of beauty, or the Brian Danielle Blue Topaz Diamond Ring as the piece that will take everyone’s breath away.

You are now ready to step into the limelight. Put on a smile and steal the night at your formal occasion. Be confident, your jewelry isn’t the only reason you look great.
