get the look: ACCESSORIES

Accessories can make or break your look so it's important to find the right ones.  Accessories should always compliment your look, draw attention to the right places and at the same time never take away attention from the exciting parts of your outfit.  Check out these fantastic accessories that help to compliment and polish...

Vintage Button Earrings by Sweet Evie - Bad Joan Exclusive $17

Heidi Klum rocked a simple pair of black stud earrings at a recent taping of Project Runway.  Studs were the perfect way to finish her look so as not to distract her fabulous hair style and asymmetrical neckline.  You can get a similar look right now on Badjoan.com with the Vintage Button Earrings by Sweet Evie.

Royal Knot Necklace by Josefina de Alba - Retail $118 / Bad Joan $40

Drew Barrymore wore a solid red crew neck dress to a fundraiser for President Obama.  A classic look that needed a tiny bit of pop which she achieved with a thick beaded choker that had hints of red to match her dress.  This piece sat perfectly at the neckline giving the dress that little bit of extra oomph without going over the top.  You can get a similar look right now on Badjoan.com with the Royal Knot Necklace by Josefina de Alba (which has black, white and gold so it will compliment any of those colors in the same way as Drew's red look!).

White Jade Earrings by Avery Jasper - Bad Joan Exclusive $32

Courtney Cox pulled her hair back and wore a pair of light colored drop earrings which brightened up her whole face!  You can get a similar look right now on Badjoan.com with the White Jade Earrings by Avery Jasper.
