Cannes Film Festival Jury Member and museworthy style icon Natalie Portman could roll out of bed still be the most striking girl in a hundred mile radius. When she gets decked out in designer gowns and gorgeous diamonds, well she transforms into pure perfection! At the jury photo call for the 61st Annual Cannes Film Festival, Natalie dazzled in three layered Tiffany & Co. Diamond necklaces - the Diamond Flower Link Necklace ($47,500), Diamond Cobblestone Pendant ($7,800), and Circlet Diamond Pendant ($2,275). And that was just the tip of the iceberg. (Get it? So clever am I!) I couldn’t resist tracking down her pieces, and similar styles for the ones that were untrackable. Click READ MORE to get her Cannes look.

While a good part of the handbag craze is focused purely on form, it’s easy to forget that our totes actually have a purpose - a purpose beyond being fabulous, of course. Simply put, they hold our stuff, and without them, we’d actually have to use the pockets on our spring tops and dresses. Scary, right? Anyway, it goes without saying that what’s in your bag is pretty important, so check out Bagtrends’ picks for the top five in-your-bag essentials. They’re perfect for a little beauty pick-me-up, you know, so your shiny new bag doesn’t outshine you. Click on over to Bagtrends for the top five picks!
In Los Angeles, everywhere you turn around, there is style. Yes, I’m in a town that’s a little bitty bit obsessed with appearances, a town where people focus more on what they look like than anything else. You rarely see anybody slacking off, even if it’s 11am on a Friday. Want proof? Here’s a SLIDESHOW of five fun outfits - all of which I shot TODAY!
Stylehive was out celebrating the 10th Anniversary of Gen Art’s Styles International Design Competition at the Sunglass Hut store in Soho, where we caught up with the fabulous host, Gossip Girl star and self-proclaimed “sunglasses fiend” Michelle Trachtenberg. Michelle looked absolutely stunning in her Diane Von Furstenberg dress and was like a kid in a candy store while trying on all the hot new summer shades. When it sunglasses, Michelle told Stylehive, “I do one extreme or the other, I either like really big, really dark, classic square frames or I do aviators. A Jackie O, dark plastic frame is great year round. But it’s fun to switch it up and have an aviator for the summer. And sometimes I’ll do like a Ray-ban Wayfarer, those are my three go-tos.” Click READ MORE for more on the new and improved Sunglass Hut and check out my slideshow for my favorite styles including a pair Ms. Trachtenberg snagged for herself.
One day back in 1959, a desperate housewife took a dozen colorful dresses made by her dressmaker and set them up for sale at an orange juice stand. From this simple beginning, a legend was born. Within five years, it seemed almost every American woman was sporting one of Lilly Pulitzer’s simple sheath dresses in an eye-popping print. Lilly became a favorite at resorts and country clubs nationwide and even Jacqueline Kennedy became a fan. And while the Lilly Pulitzer label continues to manufacture clothes today, the early vintage dresses and skirts of the 1960s and 1970s still hold a special charm.

Sunny San Francisco days call for lazy mornings, leisurely walks, and long brunches, so when the weekend finally rolls around, head over to Foreign Cinema. Tucked away in SF’s lively Mission district, the restaurant is known for the foreign and independent films shown in the outdoor courtyard, during which guests can dine and drink to their hearts’, stomachs’, and minds’ content, though brunch is equally delectable. I wandered down to the “industrial-chic” establishment a few Saturday mornings ago to see for myself, and let’s just say my go-to brunch place across from my apartment has some serious, high-ceilinged and white tableclothed competition. Click SEE SLIDESHOW for a taste of Foreign Cinema, a true serving of San Francisco City Style!

Although I personally am not ‘petite,’ I can definitely empathize with the plight of petites when it comes to finding the perfect pants. If you wear pants that are too loose, you can look like you’re drowning, too long, and you’ll look sloppy and short, too tight, and you can look especially teeny and shapeless. Length and fit are of utmost importance- a golden rule that applies to ladies of all body types, but is especially crucial for petites. Since your body type is significantly smaller than the average woman, finding a good tailor is ESSENTIAL when it comes to looking amazing. Click READ MORE for additional tips to help all you petites wear pants perfectly.

Of all the bright colors making the rounds this spring, I’m definitely favoring all things in the hue of electric blue! This color is undoubtedly striking, but not in that overly loud, obnoxious, paranoia-inducing kind of way. Unlike most bright colors, this one complements virtually every skin-tone and looks phenomenal set against all hair colors. Not only that, it looks incredible paired with every color period, from basic black to roaring red to punchy pink to glittery gold and on and on- color-coordinating mishaps are a non-issue when you throw this shade into the mix. So add some spark to your look and check out my SLIDESHOW for hot finds in this electrifying shade.
Tim Gunn, the hardest-working man in the style biz (he’s got two Bravo series under his belt, logs overtime hours to mentor his protégés, and is Chief Creative Officer of Liz Claiborne), shows no signs of slowing down. With season two of Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style coming soon, and Project Runway season five gearing up for production this summer, Gunn told Stylehive that he’s “fully expecting” fellow judge Nina Garcia back on Runway… but he has some concerns about the fate of oh-so-fierce Christian Siriano!
