Give a Dazzling Diamond Necklace For The Holidays - You Won't Regret It!

Now, granted, most people will probably not find it wise to splurge on an expensive piece of jewelry for someone this holiday season - no matter how special she is! But, if you are one of the few who are able and would like to be profusely and endlessly thanked by that woman in your life, why not go with a sparkling diamond necklace? For something on the subtler side, make a wish for a Jennifer Meyer wishbone necklace or look for a delicate long chain scattered with diamonds. For a different and rare take on the classic Tiffany's Elsa Peretti heart pendant, grab the pave diamond version. And if you want something that is truly blinding, check out this stunning Diamond in the Rough Champagne Bubbles Necklace - the name itself calls for celebration!

Hive 5: This Summer, Preppy Meets Downtown

The preppy, 'I summer in Nantucket' look reinvents itself every season, falling somewhere between Lilly Pulitzer and Ralph Lauren, but this season, it's taken a new turn. As the perfectly put-together, overly polished look wanes in favor of a slightly (or more) rumpled one ever so popularized by the likes of Mary-Kate Olsen and Lou Doillon, stylishly in-the-know folk are taking the look downtown, knocking it around a bit, and then casually forgetting that last button when they clean it up. It's a deconstructed polo, a slouchier take on the striped tee, a less conservatively cut sweater, a plaid skirt paired with beaten up old leather boots.. or in today speak, it's Gossip Girl, plus practicality, minus the excessive layering. Scuff up those pristine Jack Purcells and take a look at my SLIDESHOW of five nouveau-prep styles.

Street Style Steal: Get Rodaina's "Child of the 80s" Look

Growing up is overrated; or at least dressing like you have certainly is. So pay tribute to all those carefree childhood memories. Rompers, a variety of new takes on the overall, baby doll dresses, and one piece bathing suits have definitely made their comeback in full force. Rodaina's cute light blue romper is from Urban Outfitters but you can easily find them sleeveless to strapless fromDiane Von Furstenburg to Alexander McQueen. And who doesn't wish they could wear heart shaped sun glasses all week long? Check out my SLIDESHOW to see how you can put together Rodaina's awesomely 80's look.

Paris Style: Lou Doillon Blends Luxury With Studious Dishevelment

On a trip to Paris this spring, I became obsessed with Lou Doillon, daughter of Jane Birkin. Her influence is everywhere: bohemian with a slightly tough, rock-n-roll edge, but also a touch of luxury. It is all so impossibly chic the way these women zip around Paris on their motorbikes, clad in leather jackets or leather pants and layers of scarves and jewelry. The key to this look is the right balance: keeping delicate or frilly things toned down with something a little edgy (a flowy, silky dress with a motorcycle jacket) and vice versa (a strand of pearls or rhinestones with a flannel shirt and trousers). Mlle Doillon is also the master at making menswear incredibly feminine and sexy. And last but not least ... don't dare brush your hair! Click SEE SLIDESHOW for more examples!
