Jewelry & Accessories at Paris Fashion Week
Some Paris runways echoed the retro looks shown recently during London Fashion Week. Jean Paul Gaultier's show began and ended with American singer Beth Ditto, who has curves you don't typically see on the catwalk. Portions of the theatrical-like event were reminiscent of previous eras, including Joan Jett punk rocker styles. The John Galliano show offered a fun look at accessories, too, with a mix of retro not too much unlike we would have see on Clara Bow in the 1920s and 1930s.

Ashley Greene's Jewelry Style
Ashley Greene moved to California to pursue acting when she was 17, but got her first true break when she landed the role of Alice Cullen in the popular Twilight series. We've only had a couple of years to watch her jewelry style emerge, but it's obvious that Ashley likes to mix classic and trendy when she attends celebrity events.
