Ask Gigi : What jewelry to wear with gown

Question from Julia C.
Dear Gigi,

I am the Mother of the Groom and have a formal, long dark green gown with a beaded top of green, teal, and a few bronze bugle beads. I will probably shorten it to ankle length. Bronze sandals seem to look best but I don't know what color jewelry (necklace/earrings/bracelet)to wear with bronze sandals. Since the top has a lot of beading do I need to worry about that clashing with the jewelry? I also purchased a bronze fabric clutch with a cover made of bronze bugle beads but don't know if this was a good choice. Please help! Thanks so very much.

Answer:
Your dress sounds fabulous! You are right to be concerned about clashing with the beading on your dress, you want to avoid looking too cluttered. Your main goal would be to keep the attention to your facial area, and you will need earrings to draw the eye back up from the beautiful beading of your dress to your eyes. Your best option would be to wear earrings in the same colors as your dress so as to keep the continuity of the colors. This may be harder to find but worth the effort in the long run.

But your 2nd option would be to purchase dark green gemstone drop earrings in a bronze or gold setting, like the ones Angelina Jolie wore to the Oscars! Make sure the green gemstone matches your dress perfectly. And they should be at least 3 inches long, remember you have a lot going on in your dress and you need to balance it out by drawing the eye upward. I don't see any reason to wear additional jewelry, the earrings will be just the right accessory.

Best wishes

Ask Gigi : How do I wear an animal print without looking bad.?

Question:
I fell in love with animal prints, when I saw Miley Cyrus at the Grammy's. I also love animals and was wondering if wearing an animal print makes me look like a killer, (of animals, I mean).I don't want to offent anyone.-Sandy P.

Sandals by Christian Louboutin

Answer :
We sure appreciate your sensitivity and respect for Mother Nature! But we believe you are actually honoring animals by dressing up in an animal print rather than the real animal skin. I think our furry friends animal would be flattered by your choice to mimic him/her.

Hairstyle of the Month : Hollywood Glam

Glamour. Is it really in the eye of the beholder? Or is inherent in every tiara or bauble, or lipstick case, to be transmitted to the wearer. Some say, that glamour makes you look better than you really are. Others admit that a bit of glamour lurks in every being, only showing itself at the right moment or in the right light or next to the right gemstone.  

Kelly Osbourne is no stranger to glamour and what it can do for her aura.We couldn't help but notice how the now face-of-the-Glamour-Queen-Madonna's fashion line at Macy's has bear-hug- embraced the Hollywood look of updos, and oh-so-Ivanka, when she presented Glamour's Woman of the Year award to Constance McMillan, the accidental activist, who stood up for her rights as a lesbian who was banned from going to her own prom. 

As Kelly told Constance... " **** prom, you're dancing with me tonight!" 

We've been paying attention ever since. And we'd like you to pay attention too, so this month, we are handing out our own glamour award to :::

Kelly Osbourne.

New Hairstyles : 3 ways to change up a short style

Question:
Dear Gigi, I am on the swim team at my school and I have to keep my hair short. Are there any really cool hairstyles I could try for my prom? My hair is straight mostly, but with a little wave.

Answer:
We don't know who to thank but trends like this are just so fun to play with. Rhianna, Halle, Victoria, Carey, gave us who love shorty hairstyles, the most hope, when it came to short, short hairstyles.

No longer just a way to save primping time, short hairstyles are finding their way into the hearts of glamorous women everywhere.

Trick is, there are a few actually, you must add some major drama if you want to change it up for a special occasion.

We recommend :

1. color - no need for a hostile takeover, just use a tint or a temporary spray in blue or purple for a trendy night time look 

1. texture - wax or spray, its your choice, just make sure a lot of new strands are showing off

1. volume - freshly washed, do a huge blow-out and barrel curls like Drew  Barrymore for an instant red carpet look
