Clip ons

Not your Grandma's clip ons

I’ve been pushing in fashion the clip on earring for the last 5 years, so I’m super happy that it finally is making its mark editorially.

I love the 2 images of a woman wearing a large clip on.

One is slightly the “Alfred Hitchcock Woman” who pulls her hair back and wears a classic clip on. The other is more of an “Indie-New-Breakfast-Club-Girl” who is just discovering the 1980′s.

Either way, the clip on adds a sense of subtle seriousness with a bit of humor that feels modern again.

As a side note- this will be my last post until after all the Holiday madness. I hope everyone has a great time and I’ll be back after the New Year!

Cuffs

cuffsCuffs should always give off a feeling of strength when you’re wearing them. This is the second season we are seeing the image of wearing matching cuffs on each arm. Typically they would be only on one arm
