zales

Today’s ad from Zales (which is actually part of a far less offensive series) reminds me of a New Year’s resolution we’d love for us to all make: To retire the “Women Are Frigid Unless You Buy Them Jewelry And Get Them Sauced” myth. Kinda drains the romance out of the whole gift-giving gesture.

0-PLUKKA

We don’t write about fine jewelry much on Styleite, mainly because we can’t afford it. And while we love window shopping as much as the next person, there’s something about fancy-jewelry-we-can’t-afford that just kinda makes us sad. Enter Plukka.

Did Kim Kardashian Copy Alexis Bittar’s Jewelry Line?

Vera Wang - Backstage - Spring 2012 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week

A lot of people have said a lot of mean things about Kim Kardashian, but we don’t think anyone had ever called her a thief until jewelry designer Alexis Bittar accused her of copying his designs for her own line of baubles, Belle Noel.

Confidentiality agreements suck, but they are sort of legally binding. That’s why actor/model/fashion commentator/designer/singer Kelly Osbourne can’t talk about the jewelry collection she’s working on. So we’re going to talk about it for her.

The Girl’s Guide To Curating A Super Cool Jewelry Collection

Besides being a makeup addict, I also happen to be a jewelry addict. That whole Coco Chanel “take one accessory off before you leave the house” adage? Um, no thanks. Though I layer piece upon shiny piece (Iris is my homegirl, after all), even just one really great item can transform an outfit from blah to bomb. And you want to look all bomb, don’t you? This is why I’m going to teach you how to curate a super cool jewelry collection.

To kick off the month of August with a fashion bang, I have selected a stylish, statement-making piece from my dear friend (and CFDA-winning jeweler!) Alexis Bittar’s latest collection—a Tigers Eye Quartz Collar. Fitting right in with the rest of his over-the-top fall offerings, this necklace is crazy time!…aka ba-na-nas : )

0-pantherbracelet

After Daphne Guinessheartfelt explanation as to why she stopped the Isabella Blow sale, we were in dire need of a good fashion-related auction. Thankfully, Sotheby’s in London came through and announced the sale of 20 pieces of jewelry (many of them Cartier) made for Ms. Wallis Simpson (a.k.a. the Duchess Of Windsor) during her marriage to Edward VIII. Window shopping, after the jump!

THE ZOE REPORT: Falling For Fallon

Not to be confused with Dana Lorenz’s main accessory line, Fenton, today’s featured brand Fallon is a defiant and youthful spin-off with equally-bold jewels at a lower price point. Of course, there is also Fenton/Fallon which is a capsule guest designer collection created by Lorenz for J.Crew… are you taking notes? I hope so, because all three lines are mah-jor and should be incorporated into your jewelry boxes ASAP! If you are unsure of where to start, I recommend a pair of Fallon’s Comet Earrings.

Scorned star Kanye West may have made a comeback performance during Sunday’s BET Awards, but the post-show buzz focused mainly on Kanye’s gigantic and Egyptian-inspired adornments. Well, in the last 24 hours, detailed information on the jewels — which honestly looked as if they were personally thieved from the Pyramid tombs themselves — surfaced, including up-close angle shots and a six-figure price tag.

The 6 Strangest Menswear Trends Seen In Milan

0-milan

In all honesty, it doesn’t take much to make a male model look good. A loin cloth usually works. But nonetheless, menswear designers (for the most part anyways) have overwhelmingly stuck to the straight and narrowly tailored. You know: suit, tie, solids, yawn. But this season, Milan got a little wacky. In fact, between all the meggings (male leggings), man-dals (with and without socks), and some body jewelry that would have made a “Faith” era George Michael blush, we started to wonder what was going on and, more importantly, if “Blue Steel” was strong enough to withstand it.

Maybe it’s our inner geek speaking, but lately we find comical all the adroit attempts by the fashion clique to mingle with the runny nosed techies. Consider the notoriously icy, Tiffany & Co.‘s most recent virtual foray: The Engagement Ring Finder.
