Diamonds, pearls, champagne, Leonardo Dicaprio......can a girl ask for more? If you haven't heard the buzz already, this summer is going to be the summer of Gatsby. So darling, put on your dancing shoes because your dreams are coming true, we're heading to the roaring twenties! The much anticipated adaptation of
The Great Gatsby directed by Baz Luhrmann, premiered this weekend in 3D. And just like you, we are excited to see the sparkly jewels, the 1920's fashion, the music and the over-the top glittering parties courtesy of millionaire Jay Gatsby. Now that we have your attention, pop a bottle of your most expensive champagne and let us show you how to rock the classic Gatsby style the next time you hit the town!
The glitz, the glamour, and the extraordinary jewels. The Jazz Era of the 20's oozed impeccable style from the ladies and the gents. Even the novels author, F. Scott Fitzgerald, was an actual customer of
Tiffany & Co. so it was only natural for the film to partner with the renowned jeweler to create gorgeous pieces for the film. Tiffany's gave the film's costume designer Catherine Martin, access to their archives and pieces from the era. The 'crown jewel' of the film is The Savoy, a diamond and fresh water cultured pearl
headpiece with detachable brooch, inspired by a Native American design, made for the eternally glamorous Daisy Buchanan. This stunning jeweled headpiece is 20 carats of pure bling and has a price tag of $200,000. If you're like me and are balling on a budget, don't worry you can still look like a million bucks! We found a gorgeous
flapper hair band from
ASOS, that you can rock for only $25.46. You're sure to look like a show stopper with this boho-chic meets glam, embellished design.

And gentlemen, we didn't forget about you! To get the Gatsby look keep it polished and preppy by adding bow-ties, suspenders, cufflinks, hats, and yes even a cane. When it comes to fashion it's the little details that separate the boys from the gentlemen, aka swag. And who other then the leading men of the film, Leonardo Dicaprio and Toby McGuire, to show us just how sharp men of the era looked. The film partnered with
Brooks Brothers who not only created all of the men's costumes but also has a Gatsby inspired line. We love these
onyx and gold studs from the Brooks Brothers Gatsby line, that retail for $395. Pair them with these white cap-toe oxfords from
Stacy Adams that retail for $112.95. To top of the look what man doesn't look dapper in a cane and a hat? Come on gentlemen bust out your white suit, poor yourself a glass of scotch and let's party like it's 1920!
Cheers!
