In every season, trends on the best accessories more often that not become one of the biggest statements in fashion. This holiday, above-the-knee boots, huge neckpieces, leather gloves, art-like hats are creating style flashes that call for a celebration. But how can we forget a woman’s best friend (aside from diamonds and shoes) — bags? Probably the biggest trend to rock on the holidays with the most coveted piece are studded and chained with a new kind of luster. Classic shapes designed with the new preciously embellished extras are ferocious in striking links and loads of hardware.
The current industrial hard-edged appeal defines fierce hardcore fashion to these glitzy stunners. Today’s rebel-punk-rock chic in the most desired rough flashes re-brands tough luxury with uber glam. High-wattage bags are bolting basic ensembles with a maximum punch noteworthy under the style radar.
