I’m like a magpie, attracted to shiny things.

Hope – Green Blouse/ Navy Necklace (5.22.12)
This is a throwback to 80’s preppy with the green and navy combo, which offers some whimsy…but this may be a little too matronly a look for Hope. Just saying. She is such a natural beauty and I love the necklace…You know what? I’m just going to stop talking, you be the judge. This Real Deal Talitha blouse by J Crew is sold out of this green, but it is still available in red and fuchsia. Here are also some similar necklaces as well.
Brooke – Magenta Dress/ Tassel Necklace (5.22.12)
Brooke was wearing this gorgeous magenta pencil dress on the 25th anniversary episode and here it is as a repeat on this episode. Funny how a simple statement necklace can totally change the look of the dress isn’t it? As much as I love the cut, the length, the color and the step sleeves of this dress, it wasn’t available back then, and still isn’t now. But hey, why not change up the look of one of your dresses in your closet with must have tassel necklace? We saw a great version on Steffy here several weeks back, here are some other versions with this gold strand look:
*Request* Caroline – Spike Necklace (4.24.12)
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say the key to finding all of Caroline’s jewelry is to find the designer. All of her accessories have this similar bold, edgy vibe. I don’t know who that is yet so I’ve only been able to find some similar styles at this point. I am not giving up hope though for the Real Deal. Here are some similar versions if you want to go tribal this summer though:
Update 7.10.12: One of our fabulous readers Laurie found the Real Deal version of this necklace!
Steffy – Eyelet Top (Italy)
I want to go to Southern Italy! I want to go to Southern Italy! And I want to wear an off the shoulder eyelet top like this. And ride a scooter. And drink wine. And get a great tan and wear this top (but not a cropped one for me) and with a neon belt like Steffy. Here are a few options to get the look:
Steffy – Leather Wrap Bracelet (4.23.12)
If you’ve been following the Soaps Style Facebook page, you know how much I love wrap bracelets, and I LOVE this brown leather wrap bracelet with the hardware clasp (you can’t see that in this pic). I love this even more with the choice of brown leather with the black leather top on Steffy. I found a bracelet that it very similar from Barney’s New York, and it has diamonds in the clasp…and it’s over $10,000. Gasp. Here are a few Real World versions that accomplish the same thing:
Brooke – Flower Bracelet (4.13.12)
I think Brooke’s agent in real life should get her a gig as muse/model for Hermes or Ralph Lauren. Tell me she doesn’t own this outfit with classic Ralph Lauren elements, combined with the look of a little Escada and then some Marc Jacobs whimsy with her bracelet. I couldn’t help but keep following the bracelet like a cat watching a moving toy. I think it’s just a clever bracelet to put on with an outfit where you would expect to see a large gold link or rope style bracelet to match her necklace (boring). I’m so glad the stylists went with this lovely instead. Here is the bracelet if you want to try it with your own wardrobe:
Donna – Flower Necklace (4.13.12)
Hello Donna! Welcome back we missed you. Although you might of bummed out a few people with your ‘I have millions of dollars, I’m bored, can I have a job?’ And…done. Anyhow, since we are on the flower accessory kick this episode, why not acknowledge Donna’s delicate bloom necklace today. It’s a pretty one. I don’t know who the Real Deal is by, but here are some similar options:
Steffy – Tassel Necklace (4.10.12)
Steffy seems so drama free and pulled together in general these days, especially compared to Hope. This outfit is the same. Pinstripe blazer… nice, sheer white tank…same, but put them together with an over-sized tassel necklace and you have this totally pulled together look. This looks great with her fitted black pants, but she would also look great in those corral pants she wore a few weeks back. Either way, looks great. Oh I almost forgot to mention the peek of a solid black bra under the sheer white is very Steffy cool. Here is the necklace and a Real World inexpensive version:
Hope – Statement Necklace (4.4.12)
You must admit, Hope has some interesting statement necklaces and bracelets many days. You can emulate the same look with some long pearl strands and one of these similar over-sized pieces:
