Break From the Chains That Bind You!
August 26, 2008
Gold chains are wrapping are their way around the necks and wrists of the trendy and talented. Jewelry.com takes a look at this summer's craze of layer upon layer of gorgeous gold.
The New York Times Style Magazine reports this that "Jewelry is back in a big way." And by big they mean that women can now wear complete ensembles, combine costume with vintage, and wear lots and lots of layers. Enter the gold chain craze.
A
close sister to this summer's
pendant
necklace trend, statement chains can be worn in an infinite number of ways.
Varying lengths and link sizes are key. Confused? Enter Madonna.
Madonna
not only turned 50 recently, but she - yet again - showed us all how to rock
the jewelry trend of the season by complementing her birthday bash outfit with a
Mr. T-like showing of gold chain.
Scarlett
Johannson also wore the look well at the recent premier of Vicky Christina
Barcelona.
The good news for us mere mortals? We don't have to break the bank to recreate the same style. There is nothing wrong with pairing real and fake this season. Go for it. And there is also nothing wrong with wearing multiple metal colors - gold, white gold, silver - you name it, you can don it.
So break from the chains that bind you, jewelry lovers. Layer those links for fall!
