Q. I recently picked up some striped tees (the open V-neck from Anthropologie in orange and yellow) and the Dotted tee in navy from JCrew. They are just casual tees, but I would like to wear some type of necklace with them. I’m stumped as to what works with these (if anything). Can you give me some suggestions?
A. I love the idea of dressing up a basic t-shirt (printed or plain) with a statement necklace — the epitome of laid-back chic that’s perfect for summer. Look for bold bright candy colored necklaces and chunky chains to make a statement, or go for something more delicate for a subtle look; the possibilities are truly endless. Here are some options for every budget and style.



Q. I was flipping through some old magazines, when I came across a picture of Emma Stone carrying the Michael Kors Silverton Traveler Tote (right). I am obsessed, but of course it is no longer available ANYWHERE! Can you help me find it or a super ridiculously closely similar bag? I love the rectangular structured-but-not-too-structured shape and the perfect-for-over-the-shoulder-or-carrying-by-hand length handles. The simplicity of the bag, with little embellishment, is kind of completely my style.
