Style Radar: Statement Necklace

The trend started in 2011, but is going to be even better in 2012. 

Personally I love this style and am always on the search for a great 

statement necklace! Below are some great examples and photos!

Enjoy! ( I know you will!)

Isn't this beautiful (above and below)

And an even newer trend that followed is the under the

collar necklace trend, and I love the way it looks!

HOW TO: UNDER COLLAR NECKLACE

1) Pick your favorite collared shirt. Button up...all the way

2) Pair with your favorite statement/short necklace & make sure

your collar lies over it.

Style Radar: Jewel Tones

One of my favorite things about (this) fall is jewel tones!
The bright, punchy colors are so much fun, but have a more sophisticated and almost 'warm' edge in comparison to summer bright hues

Here are some of my faves this season:

(click image to enlarge)

From top-left onwards:

BLOUSE:

Equipment blouses: The place for your perfect blouse. Love these bright ones. The sheer one is quite nice but please please please do wear a tank top underneath! The whole sheer top, or bright bra look, is so tacky! please don't. Keep your self respect. Even if you don't care about that...Wear something!

PHONE CASE:

How amazing is this miu miu phone case? So gorgeous (Love the navy-gold combo)

 and so versatile, perfect for fall and winter

SWEATER:

Roberto Cavalli Sweater: with embellished shoulders! via net-a-porter. 

Love all of it!

SCARF:

Yves Saint Laurent berry colored scarf. via net-a-porter. Love this color, and can add 

instant 'pop' to any outfit. Perfect for keeping you warm or even just because!

RING:

Charm & Chain green onyx ring by Kendra Scott. 

Brighten up any outfit with this jewel!

NECKLACE:

Lauren Elan sunshine necklace. Full of bright beads and satin. 

A great chunky necklace for over a turtle neck, sweater, or blouse.

SWEATER:

J.W.Anderson Sweater in orange, via net-a-porter. 

I would say, an orange sweater is a staple this season

SHOES:

Brian Atwood Pumps in (marcella) electric purple, complete with gold heels! 

What's not to like about the color and shape? 

(we're not so sure how we feel about the 'real snake skin' though)

PURSE:

A.P.C. textured leather shoulder bag via net-a-porter. Nothing like a classic leather shoulder bag. Accessories other bright elements of your outfit with a neutral black hand bag.

Style Radar: Animal Instincts

This week's LVP Style Radar caught on to the Leopard/Cheetah trend that's been a color story of many Designer's websites, not to mention many store's window displays.

Don't forget: This print can be a little overwhelming, and your look can get gaudy very fast!

Make sure you pair animal prints with lots of neutrals, especially black, whether its black leggings and/or a black tote, and/or a black top.  Remember not to have one to many animal print items on!

Hope you enjoy!
