jewelleryoe. Accessory obsession now centers on the need-it-now bauble.
More and more houses - Bottega Veneta and Burberry, to name just two
- are entering the jewelry arena. And they're not doing so quietly:
Chunky statement pieces are the trend and it is about time you start
pairing your favourite piece of clothing with an eccentrically galactic
piece of jewllery.
Fall was a gem of a season for necklaces in particular. The moods
were many: delightfully Deco at Lanvin, strung with crosses and amulets
at Givenchy. Still, bracelets can't be ignored; Marc Jacobs' nodded
to Scandinavian modern, while medieval wrist wrappers doubled as spiked
weapons at Burberry Prorsum.
Not that we condone violence, but that's one way to get your money's
worth. So get out there and pimp up your wrists and necks.

Metallic

It's
funny how quickly we can become bored with our seasonal wardrobes.
By now, we're ready to throw our 12 black turtlenecks and six beaded
brooches out the window. If you're with us, put the pedal to the metal,
because spring and summer accessories are already hitting the stores,
and metallics are going to be huge, hot, hip, happening and any other
cool word that begins with the letter H.
Talk about wrapping yourself up in fashion! Metallic belts add the
perfect punch to any outfit any day of the week. Thick or thin, studded
or stamped, belts can be worn with any number of outfits. Denim is
the obvious choice, but don't overlook the chic style of a wide metallic
belt loosely fastened around a cute dress or skirt. They are also
the perfect accent to white pants - which is a good thing, because
in case you haven't heard, "white is the new black." |
