From diamonds to crystals, bold baubles are a girl's best friend on the red carpet this week. We snapped shots of Estelle at the New York premiere of 'For Colored Girls' and model/actress Elizabeth Mathis at the Los Angeles premiere of 'Unstoppable' donning some major bling. Coast to coast, dressing up is all about wearing at least one statement making timepiece that will compliment and make your look pop.If you're eager to amp up your wow factor head to Oohilove.com, a new online auction site where fashionistas can obtain newly released luxury designer accessories for a fraction of the retail price. Vanessa Motley, Head Buyer and Fashion Expert of Oohilove suggests, "Keeping track of what designers and styles people are talking about so you can buy similar items for less at your favorite stores."
Before you go overboard on the gems, celebrity jeweler and CEO of MyJewelryBox.com, David Mamane, warns that moderation is a must. Jewelry can highlight features that you want to draw attention to, whether it is your eyes, face, or neck.
"If you want to accentuate your eye color, sport a pair of complementary colored earrings. To complement a round face and add definition, wear a necklace that extends below the neckline," advices Mamane. "Just remember, you only need one piece to accentuate - too many accessories distract from those features you want to enhance."
