90210 1.1 - Introducing Naomi Clark

By far the best dressed person in the premiere episode was spoiled rich girl Naomi Clark (of course). Since most of us cannot afford Chanel, I thought I'd offer some alternatives to the clean, tailored, black and white day-at-the-races look she sports in this episode.

We'll start with her jacket/blazer (apparently blazers are still de rigeur dress for West Bev).
Expensive

Rag & Bone, Casino Tux Jacket, Tobi ON SALE for $242 (from $485)Moderate

Alice & Olivia, Annabelle Blazer, Bluefly ON SALE for $199.99 (from $240)

This beaded ombre necklace is a fun twist on a long strand of pearls, yet nicely complements the black and white theme.
Banana Republic, Ombre beaded necklace, BR $39.

The black flower on this multistrand beaded necklace is evocative of the Chanel camellia.
Merona, Multi-strand Flower Pendant Necklace, Target $17.99

And now for something completely different...


Fitting with our theme, I came across the following items that, while not integral parts of Naomi's outfit, oresent the same style elements in a different way.

Banana Republic, Banded Collar Polo, Banana Republic $74.
Forever 21, Donna Cotton Dress, Forever 21 $22.80.
