more is more is more at 3.1 Phillip Lim, Lanvin, YSL (top) and Christian Dior, Chanel, & Marc Jacobs (bottom)
In all seriousness, fashionistas often take fashion a bit too seriously...which meant it was high time for playfully oversized and zany accessories. Like the girl you take home to meet mom, fine jewels are fine, but not necessarily fun...the exact opposite of these trendy, cheap(er) bad girls which live for a good time. So by all means pile 'em on, but avoid playing the role of fashion victim by following the rule of the focal point: pick only one area to highlight. If you're roughing up a proper suit with a YSL-inspired mega-necklace, then nix the earrings. A flower tucked behind your ear or dramatic hair ornament/hat look best sans necklaces. And if you're actually able to pull off the Chanel ankle purselet - then you don't need our help.
Here are some fun accessories options for trying on the trend:
- Naughty Secretary Club handmade earrings
- Chapeau Claudette flirty red wool cocktail hat
- Tatty Devine Fishbone necklace
- Johanne Mills Bead Hoops
- Tatty Devine Card Suits necklace
- Lesley Scott
