While it may seem intimidating – red-carpet spotlight and all – it’s actually really easy to slip into your accessories routine. As I see it, there are two differing approaches.

Go for the wow factor.
I love a bolder necklace paired with a V-cut back. The necklace slips right into the backline, perfectly complementing the shape and adding some seriously unexpected bling. Go with an updo for this look – with accessories like this, you’ll want to show them off.

Keep it simple.
A delicate chain is a lovely addition to a dress with a simple back. Jennifer Lawrence opted for this look with a straight-backed gown, and the result was a subtle draped effect. Hair up or hair down – this look is understated enough that it works with both.

@The_Meek: Gmail is back. One day I’ll tell my grandkids how I didn’t have email access for about 4 minutes.
And how, as a result, the entire interwebs almost shut down in fear. 

@elementstyle: I am so loving Anne Hathaway’s pixie. Wish I had the balls (and bone structure).
Ditto. What we don’t wish for, though? Her extreme diet for Les Miz.

@katiearmour: true friends text you photos of @RyanGosling when you’re having a bad day
Better friends send you YouTube links of his best movies to watch at work.

@RebelWilson: I am going to go on a new cleanse – my weekend cleanse of cutting everything out of my diet except for chocolate DID NOT WORK! …
Maybe that’s where we went wrong, too…
