Jessica Alba sported a mixed metal and crystal Giles & Brother necklace on Tuesday, November 29 while picking up a cup of coffee in West Hollywood. The ‘Spy Kids 4′ actress, who’s known for sporting trendy jewelry, added the necklace to her casual, classic look of a gray jacket, white shirt, red jeans and black boots.

Giles & Brother is the high fashion costume jewelry line of designer Philip Crangi. Besides Alba, such A-list celebrities as Gwyneth Paltrow, Cameron Diaz, Jessicl Biel, Natalie Portman, Rachel McAdams and Drew Barrymore are fans of Crangi’s jewelry.

Crangi launched his company in 2001 with his sister and business partner, Courtney Crangi. Besides Giles & Brother, they also run a fine jewelry collection, Philip Crangi. The lines, which are produced in New York, combine unique materials to deliver originality not often seen with traditional jewelry. The lines feature such details as personal charms and large baubles, which are inspired by everything from classic estate jewelry to African textiles.

The Philip Crangi collection has evolved since its inception, and has become one of the leading, influential trendsetters in jewelry. Crangi won the prestigious CFDA Swarovski Award for Accessory Design in 2008, a year after being named the first runner-up for the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Award.
