Inauguration Baubles

Dear H.
I too have a last minute inauguration question.  I am going to a black tie ball and want to dress up a simple black strapless cocktail dress with some fly accessories.  I really loved the bib style necklaces worn at the golden globes over the weekend (see: Eva Mendes, etc).  Any thoughts on where to find one that doesn't cost me my first born?  If not, any other suggestions for really bold yet classy accessories?

A, 

I think Eva Mendes's gorgeous turqouise Van Cleef and Arpels necklace was more popular than Slumdog Millionaire at the Golden Globes.  Huge statement necklaces are definitely in fashion, and a great way to make a bold statement with a classic dress, but it is difficult to find nice ones that you don't have to call to inquire about the price. Here are three options I love for under $500, under $250, and under $100:

1.)  Under $500:

Lee Angel Rise Coral Necklace, $396 (at Shopbop)

2.) Under $250:

Rachel Leigh Pearl Necklace, $188

3.)  And check out this steal for under $100:

Gerard Yosca Fringe Necklace, $215 originally, but on sale for $75 at Bloomingdale's

Bling bling,
