Brooke – Clover Necklace (4.3.12)

There have been quite a few fab long necklaces of late, and this one is no exception. Brooke means business trying to assert her opinion onto Rick and Amber, but it doesn’t appear to be working. What does work though is this metallic bronze sheath dress, with the long clover design necklace by Tory Burch. The Real World necklace version is pretty close. Maybe the necklace will bring Brooke better luck next time. Here it is:

Brooke – Gray Silk Blouse & Circle Earrings (3.23)

Trying to help with the damage control of the ‘Hope Fraud’, Brooke looks cool and under control in her silk V neck blouse. We saw her in a similar version of this blouse in white a couple of weeks ago here, also made by designer Vince.

To complete Brooke’s look with her circle pave earrings, here are a couple of near identical and affordable options:

Alison – Silk Blouse and Yellow & Gold link Necklace (3.13)

This statuesque Princess can rock a range of outfits. And I literally mean Princess. In case you didn’t know, Bill Spencer’s secretary who joined B&B last December is actually a real life Princess with quite the pedigree. Alison is Princess Theodora of Greece & Denmark.

Her sand colored silk blouse drapes beautifully to give it an almost wrap-like effect. The cuff and shoulders share a quilted pattern into the silk, which also gives a blouson/ peasant effect to the sleeves. The neck falls into a V neck pattern ending into a teardrop. The color is….ok, I would love to see it in a vibrant shade. The necklace choice, I also find to be a curious selection to accompany the delicate detailing of the blouse. I would rather see the necklace over a tank with a navy blazer. In any case, here are some similar options to the blouse and the Real Deal necklace by J Crew:

Steffy – Long drop tusk earrings (3.12)

Super trendy and totally Steffy. Her hair is long enough again to pull up into a loose bun, showcasing the long drop of these earrings. We saw some over-sized versions of horns and shark teeth on the runways by the likes of Givenchy this season…but this ready to wear version is just enough to take a trend into real world wear-a-ability.These are made by Malibu based Heather Gardner. Her nature influenced styles can be seen on a bunch of the A-listers everywhere you turn. The black drop earrings are sold out, but are available in tortoise, below. If you love the black I’ve included the necklace version.

Taylor – Camel cardigan with leather and gold clasps (3.8)

Look, I think Taylor is gorgeous. She has been one of my faves on B&B since years and years ago, but I’m not sure if this cardigan is doing anything for her. The chunkier knit, and over-sized leather fastenings and hardware on front… I don’t think do her any favors. Maybe if this was a longer slim fit, then it would work. But the box shape, mmmm, not sure. The color is great with her dark/ tan dimensional hair color though. I think the necklace choice of a chunky gold link is a perfect choice that ties in well with the over-sized features. I think this sweater may look better on Katie with a super skinny jean and platform heels. The sweater looks very, very Ralph Lauren. Here are some versions as well as her chunky necklace:

Steffy – Arc necklace (3.2)

This silver arc necklace is just enough to work with the off the shoulder asymmetry of Steffy’s top. The solid arc is a little broader than most arc necklaces you see with a pretty chain covering the other two-thirds of this necklace, complete with Tiffany’s style toggle clasp. Where is the ‘Real Deal’??? Still working on finding the original, here are some options in the meantime:

Hope – Pastel Blue Link Bracelet (Feb 20)

What a dramatic day for miss Hope, she was infuriated by the Steffy antics, and it was all really quite entertaining. Hope was doing a lot of animated talking and hands were flying everywhere, so I couldn’t help myself from becoming fixated on her blue link bracelet. So here it is and more affordable versions. It is very fashion forward, and also check boxes one of the categories I predicted Hope to be wearing from my spring trends post.

Steffy – FEATHER Necklace (Feb 15)

Update 3.2: Thanks to one of our lovely readers for pointing me in the right direction, that this leaf necklace is actually a feather! And it is by Chan-Luu. Thank you, one mystery solved! And hey since we waited long enough it is on sale now.

What a pretty long beaded leaf necklace. This pulls the plaid shorts suit with black tank together nicely. The necklace would look just as pretty on a white tank and long skirt, or jeans. It’s a little less harsh than the bullet dangler no?

Katie – Camel Purse (Feb 16)

I was a bit surprised to see Katie carrying such a rather large purse, I mean it’s big. However if you are carrying your makeup, ipad, and just about anything else then its a great multi-purpose bag. The camel color of course matches everything, and it would be a great travel bag. This isn’t one that’s a good evening transition though, however you could easily fit an evening clutch in there. Here is a similar version to the original.
