Vanessa Hudgens is a huge fan of Jennifer Zeuner’s Mini Horizontal Cross Necklace. It looks like she wears it all the time and almost never takes it off!

I’ve always worn a simple cross necklace as a staple part of my daily wardrobe. It means something to me, it’s not just jewelry. I really like the simplicity of Zeuner’s design with this one. I think it’s very simple and basic, yet elegant and perfect for everyday wear.

Jennifer Zeuner’s Mini Horizontal Cross Necklace is available for pre order (ship in 4 weeks) through Singer22.com and jenniferzeuner.com for $121.00. It comes in sterling silver or gold vermeil.

I will definitely add this necklace to my wishlist!

In addition to being eco-friendly, everything is created out of recycled metal. Alex & Ani make it easy to be stylish and earth conscious. They are so lightweight, you can wear a ton of them without feeling weighed down. I love the carefree, boho feel to these great bangles. And it’s really cool that you can layer a couple for a classy look, or layer on a whole bunch for a bigger statement.

I usually wear 5-10 of them. All mine are gold or gold-ish tone and they look great with anything. They are my go-to accessory this summer.

Young celebs like Miley Cyrus and Vanessa Hudgens (pictured above) rock these cool bangles with their jeans and tees, but you can wear them with dresses and skirts too. I’ve been wearing mine with distressed shorts, bohemian blouses, and earthy sandals.

A few Alex & Ani Bangles I have…

A few more celebrities that like Alex and Ani include Eva Mendez, Nicole Fiscella, Oprah Winfrey, Courtney Cox, Renee Zellewegger, Cameron Diaz, Karolina Kurkova, Gweneth Paltrow, and even Drew Barrymore.

Trunk Show Chic has a lot more than just Alex & Ani bangles though! You can also find pieces with vintage crystals, or gold charms. In the coming months they will be adding a few more designers as well.

I am partial to Trunk Show Chic because all of the products they offer are made in the USA. They do their part to support local economy, operating consciously, to keep the ecosystem in mind, all while still keeping prices lower than retail. You really can’t say that about too many other websites.

Little miss Hudgens certainly has our attention! Her style sense is so casual and yet she always looks great, even when she’s at a Lakers game with her boyfriend, Zac Efron on April 19th.

She’s seen above wearing Joie Peacock Print Tank and Dylan George Skinny jeans.

Joie Peacock Print Tank – $118 @Singer22
Dylan George Skinny jeans – $219 @ Singer22

Okay, seriously $118 is too much for a tank top. I don’t care who wore it or what the label says… You can get the same casual look for less than $70 and get shoes to match. And that’s how we roll…

Paint Splatter Burnout Tank – $12.80

Extreme Frayed Skinny Jean – $27.80

Vanessa is always stylish, no matter what she wears. I especially like this cute Jen's Pirate Booty Poncho Villa Ruffle Dress in White that she recently wore. It’s $140 and can be found on Singer22.com.

White seems to be very popular this Spring and I expect this trend to follow us into Summer. White can be easy to wear, if you pair it with the right accessories and stay clean!

To get Vanessa’s cool summer look for less, try these budget friendly dresses:

Accessorize a white dress with edgy shoes like these Jessica Simpson “Carline” fringe flats in bronze. Then add a splash of color with a Floral Tote and some bright chandelier earrings and peachy-pink lip gloss.

The ever stylish Vanessa Hudgens was recently seen wearing this fabulous little green dress with Chinese Laundry “Sudoku” sandals. I absolutely LOVE those shoes!

I found them in Desert tan on Piperlime.com for $70. But I really want them in black! Looks like most good sizes are sold out in black. If you have big feet, you can get them on Amazon.com for $69.90.

After searching a bit more I found that Zappos has the Chinese Laundry Sudoku sandals in Black in almost every size for only $68.90! I have to have them…

It takes a certain finesse to own a gown. Oscar night was full of gowns wearing stars and not the other way around. It’s hard to find a dress that is eye-catching, sexy and out of the ordinary in the first place without running into trouble. Even harder, is making it look like it was made to be worn by you. Here are a few stars that got it right on Oscar Night!

Angelina Jolie

A good black gown rules at the Oscars! This woman knows what suits her. Angelina shines in a gorgeous Elie Saab Black floor length gown. Her accessories (Green, my favorite color) add just the right amount of mystery to her look. Love it!

Next up, Anne Hathaway

Anne is Luminescent is this gorgeous, pearly, Armani Prive gown. The moon-pale color and sets off her skin tone perfectly, and the shape is classic. She looks like a Oscar Winner.

Natalie Portman is next.

Looking sweetly divine in this lilac Rodarte masterpiece, Natalie commands camera attention. I love the silhouette of this dress, and the color goes nicely with her complexion.

All hail Halle Berry!

A star through and through the sexiest woman alive doesn’t disappoint. The lovely actress glimmers in this gold and black Marchesa Stunner. Show ‘em how it’s done Halle!

Marisa Tomei takes the crown

She truly owned this very unique dress. As I mentioned above, it isn’t easy wearing a dress that could easily wear you, but she did it! This origami, pleated Versace gown is very elegant and obviously meant for a Superstar. Her curves were well highlighted, and you can clearly see she is proud to wear this dress. Well Done Marisa!

It is my personal policy not to name names of the worst dressed, even if the whole world knows. I will however, leave hints!!

Worst Dressed Hints:

A head honcho from the House of Dereon sparkled during her dance number, but sadly floundered due to a bad fishtail gown that was just not Oscar worthy. There was also a “Bolt” star who looked more like a snowflake than an Oscar nominee. Certainly there were more, but I like to focus on the positive, like Kate Winslet winning best actress!!

Honorable Mentions-

Vanessa Hudgens and Jennifer Aniston both looked flawlessly lovely in their gowns, although neither shined brightly enough to make this list.

Think I was wrong? Was there someone you felt was better dressed? Voice your opinions below!

Okay,

There is some serious genius at work. Paring a sweet boyfriend cardigan with a flowy white top, skinny jeans and sexy booties is something I see on this on girl and wonder why I haven’t tried it yet? What do you think of this look? Her insane style just takes my breath away, and the oversized cardigan looks effortless with her sweet little top. I think flowy tops and skinny jeans will be another spring staple this year.Spring is almost here, and I think oversized cardigans like the one seen here on vanessa is perfect over any breezy dress, or just over a top with some jeans, I’m very excited about trying this out, effortless cool looks so good on everyone!

Okay not really, but I DO love her jewelry.

Emily Elizabeth Jewelry is a cool, New York based company that creates classic, feminine and modern jewelry that is affordable for all us women who have tight budgets right now.

From unique necklaces to feminine earrings, you are sure to find something you love. And it’s all affordable too!

If you’re looking for something different to add to your jewelry collection, you have to check them out.

Celebrity fans of the line include Vanessa Hudgens, Miley Cyrus and Cheryl Burke. The line is available at select retailers and online at www.emilyelizabethjewelry.com

The first item I feel in love with was the Golden Saltine Necklace in Brass. I mean, you just can’t get any more unique than that. You’re probably thinking, “A cracker? On a chain? Are you serious?!” But seriously, it’s a gorgeous, eye catching piece. It’s the perfect thing to totally offset a pant suit when you’re at the office. It adds something kooky and fresh so you look classy and laid back at the same time. I think it’s genius…

Another eye catching piece is the Fortune Cookie Necklace. That’s just too much fun! And my third favorite? The Safety Pin Necklace in Yellow Gold Plate. How clever is that?

I collect unique jewelry, so Emily Elizabeth Jewelry is like a gold mine to me! Be sure to check them out next time you’re looking for a cool necklace.
