Decadent Earrings from Yves Saint Laurent, Chanel, & Lacroix!

Looking for statement jewelry to top off a gorgeous vintage or contemporary dress? How about something that spices up your regular ol' day clothes? Costume jewelry is the way to go. The first earrings, from Christian Lacroix, combine stones in lavender, rose, and jade with gold hardware and pearl drops for a spectacular garden party effect. No less fetching are the Yves Saint Laurent chandelier hoops below, which employ Eastern-inspired stones and engraving for an exotic look. The next two sets are by Chanel--the first features a pearl drop with beautiful Gripoix poured glass, while the second stays simple and sexy with a small pearl drop and minimal gold hardware. If you want the Gripoix look for less dough, the Anonymous earrings below are the way to go! Fashion eccentrics will be drawn to the final pair by Yves Saint Laurent, featuring aubergine ornaments and gold hardware.

Chanel Earrings

One thing I think is so great about vintage earrings is that they are all clip-ons. True there are not many woman today that do not have their ears pierced if not even multiple time on each ear, but still I think it is such a great touch that should not be changed.

Vogue Chandelier Earrings

A Lady should always be delicate, a lady should always be presentable, and a lady should always wear jewels. Whatever they may be, diamonds, emeralds, sapphires or the like. Alternatively crystal is a grand alternative which will not cost an arm and a leg and still shimmers into the night.

Givenchy Earrings

And boom! I think by now you probably have all seen Stomp the Yard, have enrolled in Step camp and are choreographing your own routines as you read this. But what is a stepping routine without some fabulously Hip-Hop yet chic earrings to bounce from your beloved lobes.

Givenchy, always the elegant and classically appointed house was just a little Hip-Hop in the 70s I think. These large circular and heavily branded earrings certainly speak volumes about the era and will speak volumes from your ear. So hot right now, and so forever young.

Chanel Hoop Earrings

Further to owning a pair of quilted motif Chanel earrings you must indulge yourself in some ghetto fabulous and glamorous hoop earrings. Black and gold will never go out of style and the same rings true for these ridiculously Karl Chanel earrings.

They are a heavy accent to any ensemble and will make a statement as the bounce from your earlobes as you step from the backseat of you Maybach. I think it would be fair to say that if you don't have these earrings then you really don't have it at all.

Chanel Quilted Earrings

Simple, seductive, and surely Chanel as they can be, these quilted gold tone metal clip on earrings are uber necessary in your wardrobe. Yes they may be hard to wear, and yes they are clip on, but when you are wearing a paper thin cashmere turtleneck, Gap Audrey Pants and little ballet flats, if you don't want to look too mod, but want to look a little Hood, a touch of gold is all it takes to make the cross-over.
