Trend: Jeweled Collars

NYC is always ahead of us Californians fashion-wise, and Europe before them. (I think perhaps fashion travels east to west…just a personal theory of mine). While cruising around SoHo in NYC, I saw quite a few stylish 20-somethings sporting the jeweled collar trend.

But I know this trend is going big-time when I saw this display at the Stanford Nordstrom last week.

There are many choices available!

I was strolling through the boutiques on Fillmore Street, and I came across this creative interpretation at Lilith. It has beads sewn right on to an actual collar, that can be used in a variety of ways. Clever!

There are so many variations on this trend!

I spotted this sweater by Milly that has it’s own detachable jeweled collar. I’m telling you, it’s everywhere!

This a bit reminiscent of the late 50’s, don’t you think?

While I don’t think this trend fits into my own personal style, I can certainly appreciate it, and I know that many of my readers will embrace it with gusto! If you’re among that group, then rock it in style!
