As with many of our favorite fashion trends it all started with Sex and the City and the quirky style of leading lady Carrie Bradshaw.

In this case I am referring to her beloved ‘Carrie’ necklace; the only item in her wardrobe to survive all six series. Certainly a trend that’s caught on-initial jewellery is now big news in celebsville with various starlets sporting numerous re-incarnations of Carries iconic pendant.

If you’re a Hills fan for example you may have noticed fashion fave Lauren Conrad gallivanting around LA in a very ghetto-fabulous gold double finger ‘Lauren’ ring.

Paris Hilton and her Beau, Benji Madden opt for eachothers initials (barf).

Lately celebrity moms have been spotted wearing necklaces engraved with the first letter of their new baby’s name, a cute trend that’s quickly increasing in popularity as more and more A-list ladies get pregnant. Not on the cheap, these Jennifer Meyer necklaces are crafted from 18K gold- and diamond-encrusted letters. $1, 500 a pop @ Barneys

As we shouldn’t leave such narcissism to the celebrities...this trend is cute and super fun.
