Who wouldn't love the style of the woman the infamous Hermes Birkin bag was named after. I constantly find myself gravitating towards this 1960's era whether it is be by fashion, art, music and even interior design. Then add some fashion influence from France and England and Jane Birkin is naturally a Style Icon of mine. Oh and obviously she is stunningly beautiful.

How to wear Metal Collar Necklaces

Wednesday, June 6, 2012

Here are three examples on how to wear the Metal Collar Necklace trend.

I think when wearing this trend keep in mind that it is a strong look and a safe way to wear it is to pair it with a very feminine style (like in the middle outfit example).
Once you get more comfortable with such a statement piece, you can practically wear it with anything just keep the neckline of your garment simple so it will not be fighting the necklace.

Trend Alert - Collars Part One: Jewelry

On the Spring 2012 Runways Collars made quite a statement. Louis Vuitton had lacy Peter Pan collars, Celine used metallic jewelry inspired collars on stream line sheath blouses, and Givenchy may not have had metal collars but the Peter Pan collar was in full support of this trend.

I think the best way to sport this collar trend is to do it by emulating it in jewelry. Regardless if you get this statement piece from a vintage jewelry store, Louis Vuitton or even Urban Outfitters the metal collar is an easy way of updating the simplest outfits this Summer and Pre-fall Season.
