How To Wear Bib Necklaces

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

Bib necklaces became popular earlier this year. But it seems that this trend will continue into the fall. These types of necklaces are definitely statement pieces, which can sometimes be challenging when figuring out what to wear with them. Whenever you wear a statement piece, you want to avoid combining that with other statement pieces because it may end up looking costume-ish. Now, how do you wear something like this without over-doing it? Keep other accessories and patterns subtle. The best necklines for this are strapless, halter, scoop or even a plunging v-neck. These necklaces can be worn with dresses or tops, depending on the occasion.

If you don’t already own a bib necklace or can’t get enough of them, I’ve found a few options for under $60. Anthropologie has some great bib necklaces, but most are close to $200. However, they do have this colorful (and less dramatic) version for only $48. Kohl’s has an great vintage looking option on sale for $18.76! Another one is this navy piece from CUSP is a gorgeous statement for $55.

How To Wear Oxfords

Friday, September 25th, 2009

Multiple celebrities have been spotted rocking the oxfords since late this sumer and the style is likely to continue through the fall. The main thing to consider when deciding what to wear with oxfords is the fact that you want to show them off.

Pairing oxfords with a simple top and jeans is quite common. Sienna Miller and Sarah Jessica Parker have both gone this route. To ensure your jeans don’t cover the shoes, go for skinny jeans ($34.50 from Old Navy), cropped jeans or a rolled up boyfriend style as seen on Rosario Dawson. To keep the top simple, wear your favorite solid color t-shirt ($34.50 from Ann Taylor) or a solid knit sweater (On sale at Victoria’s Secret for $49!). If you don’t want to look overly preppy, avoid heavy knits and v-necks.

How To Wear Leggings

Saturday, September 19th, 2009

Leggings will continue to be popular into the fall season. However, you should stick to leggings that come to the ankle. Avoid leggings that stop mid-calf and especially those that cut you off at the knee. Leggings are a great way to make your shorter dresses wearable through fall as demonstrated by Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Alba and Jamie-Lynn Sigler. Because they are form fitting, they also look great with big sweaters and billow tops.

If you don’t have leggings yet, I’ve found a few worth trying. Express has a pair for $24.50 and they come in 10 different colors, including the neon pink shown below…an unexpectedly popular color for fall. For a touch of the ’80s, get American Apparel’s pair for $32 in sea blue (below), black, slate or deep pink. Liquid latex has been seen on Nicky Hilton, Miley Cyrus, the Olsen twins, Rihanna…and the list goes on. Try Liquid Leggings from Victoria’s Secret for a similar look at only $42.50.
