Fall Trend Alert: Leather Jewelry!
Posted in: Uncategorized  | The upcoming fall fashion season will be heavy with rich textures and colors. Metallics, tweeds, and leather in all its forms–including jewelry. Jewelry? Leather accessories are mother’s milk for the style-conscious (thinking about how much leather I personally own between shoes, purses, and jackets alone likely places me in PETA’s crosshairs). Leather jewelry, however, is a niche in accessories that’s not often thought of much. Mostly, I think, because people tend to envision Bondage or Dude Ranch homages whenever you hear “leather choker” (er, not that there’s anything wrong with that!). However, there’s a lot of gorgeous leather tooling in jewelry going on at the moment, particularly within Nicole Richie’s House of Harlow 1960 line, which is quickly becoming one of my favorite accessories brands. I like what leather jewelry does for an outfit: it takes a fabric typically reserved for hard use and turns it into something delicate, not to mention the dimension of texture it immediately adds to any look. Added bonus: price points that are normally reasonable and within reach. Take a look at selections from Oscar de la Renta, Alberta Ferretti, and Anthropologie, among others, in my slideshow! |
