Get the Look: Step into Summer Style

June 11, 2012

Celebs always seem to nail the new trends so perfectly. Luckily, there’s never a shortage of paparazzi shots to inspire our own looks. Here are some recent shots that we can’t wait to recreate for our own summer style adventures!

Nautical Days + Nights: Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift keeps it easy-breezy in navy, white, and red — a patriotic combo perfect for a BBQ! This look is great because it easily transitions from day-to-night. Get TayTay’s striped dress for less here, her sweater from Club Monaco is currently on sale (we love that!), sunglasses are classic Ray-ban Wayfarers and her red Frye sling backs add a fun + flirty pop to the look.

Now onto the jewels…our favorite part! Top off Taylor’s classic look with equally understated yet chic jewelry. Our Crystal Drop + Pearl Stud Duo add the perfect classic touch. Pair it with our Deco Pearl Flower Ring, and finish up with some red lips — BBQ here we come!

Casual Colored Denim: Gwen Stefani

Craving a more casual look while out and about during summer days? Whether you’re going to work or summer school, or grabbing a bite to eat, colored denim is a must-have this season. Keep colors light for summer, like one of our fashion idol’s Gwen Stefani donned while unning errands in LA. Gwen’s pink jeans are made by Elizabeth and James, and the red ones are J Brand.

Both of Gwen’s daytime outfits call for casual jewels with a rock star edge. We suggest our Pave Crystal Bangle and Rhinestone + Chain Link Necklace.

Dressy, Not-so-mellow Yellow: Red Carpet

And how about a dressy look for those hot summer nights? These were two of our fave bright and shining stunners. Emily Blunt‘s ladylike, sleeved Elie Saab version with a bright red lip and matching nails. Solange Knowles glammed it up for the fabulous Met Gala in a yellow stunner designed by Rachel Roy. Loving all the yellow dress choices at Shopbop. Check ‘em out, choose a favorite and don one this summer!

The last step is jewelry! We’ve got the perfect cuff for Solange. Our Organic Open Links Cuff, of course. Emily’s understated sparkly studs look just like the Retro Glam Oversized Button Earrings.

Let’s get primped for prom!

March 29, 2012

It’s prom season! That means it’s time to get giddy, grab your friends, go shopping + get dolled up!

Who says you need to find the perfect dress first? Why not start with your fave jewels and go from there!? After all, it’s all about the accessories for the biggest night in high school! C+I is here to help perfect your prom-time look — no stress, you deserve nothing but the best.

Since prom time is, after all, a lot like a red carpet event for celebrities, we pulled some of our favorite fancy looks from Hollywood’s leading young ladies. No matter your style profile, we’ve got the jewelry to go with it!

Glam Girl

Zoe Kravitz (above) really glammed-it-up for this years Oscars, but kept true to her rocker roots with her dress, complete with crushed red velvet bodice. Here, Zoe lets her deep V neckline do the talking and goes necklace-free. To get the ‘real girl’ style, we suggest adding some sparkle with our oversized Rhinestone + Chain Link Bracelet and Pave Teardrop Earrings.

Romantic Retro

How jaw-dropping is this gown Emma Watson wore to the premiere of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows?” Emma is a modern day princess, but even princesses are always looking for more ways to dazzle. If this classic, romantic look is your style, keep it real with our Chain + Pearl Bracelet paired with the Retro Glam Oversized Button Earrings. Magical!

Modern Maven

Selena Gomez has great style — we love when she goes short + flirty with her dress choices, and think this is a great option for prom … age-appropriate and oh-so comfortable. Adding modern accessories can bring this look the perfect amount of grown-up glamour. The perfect pairing? Our Pave Crystal Bangle and Hexagon Domed Pave Ring.

Garden Gal

Teen Queen Miley Cyrus stunned at last years’ Academy Awards. We love the throwback corset-style bodice and shimmery full skirt. Never one to shy away from accessorizing, Miley piled on statement pieces for extra glamour. Our take on bringing this style into spring? Garden Party baubles like the Baguette Flower Pendant + Studs.

Why not grab a group of friends for a “Let’s get primped for promtrunk show? As the host, you’ll get your jewels for free! Now that’s a stunning idea!
