From feathers to crystals to 3D florals, ornate embellishments continue to be a prominent feature both on and off the runways. And it's not surprising, considering it's the small-yet-statement-making additions that take a piece from ordinary to extraordinary. We zoom in on our favorite decorative garnishes in today's slideshow and also show you how to get the look with similar styles.

To balance her dark hair and pale skin, Lezark used Chanel Rouge Hydrabase Crème Lipstick in Vamp. Unfortunately, the shade's been discontinued, but we're pretty sure Chanel just renamed it Rouge Allure Lipstick ($34) in Rouge Noir (they're nearly identical).
