Look of the Day: Fringe and Leather
A hint of fringe and leather goes a long way. I'm digging the instant edge it lends to Bellakoko's florals — cross-body fringe is a no-fail way to add flair. Plus, she tops with aviators — making the whole thing oh-so young Hollywood.
Trend Alert: Tassel and Fringe Bracelets
A recent trip to the SF-exclusive Banana Republic Edition accessories store had me ogling the latest and greatest in jewelry: tassel and fringe bracelets. There was a lot to swoon over, but this newest style really caught my eye. We've seen tassel necklaces before but these bracelets deserve their own category.
The Look For Less: Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent Cree Fringe Flat Thong Sandal
If fringe had a season it would have to be Summer. I can't think of a better time for me to rock this trend with shorts, skirts, jeans, you name it. Take for instance this Twelfth St.
The Look For Less: Torn by Ronny Kobo Maggie Suede Fringe Vest
Fringe sista, check out this cool Torn by Ronny Kobo Maggie Suede Fringe Vest ($308). It's undeniably bohemian chic, and I know you dig the slate blue hue. The only thing not to love is the expensive price, but no worries .
Trend Alert: Flapper Fringe
Just when you think fringe has peaked its potential, designers come out with a thinner winner. Flapper fringe gives off a jazzy vibe, unlike its thicker, more bohemian sister. I actually own a black La Rok top similar to this 3.1 Phillip Lim Fringed Boat Neck Tunic ($695).
Freaky or Fabulous? Kiki de Montparnasse Fringe Necklace
I'm a sucker for fringe. Bags, shoes, skirts, tops, jewels — the fringier, the better. Well, that's what I thought until I saw this Kiki de Montparnasse Fringe Benefits Necklace ($595).
The Look For Less: Alexander Wang Fringe Platforms
The daring footwear in Alexander Wang's Spring '09 show really elevated the looks, literally and figuratively. There were platforms with chains, weaving, and perforations, but the fringe stole the show. These toughies have since been featured in many an editorial spread and been spotted on the feet of fashion's badasses.
Rachel Bilson in Nude Fringe: Love It or Hate It?
Everything Rachel is wearing during her latest LA excursion is entirely on trend: the color nude, the heather gray tights, sky-high Louboutins, Ray-Bans. Her fringed Phillip Lim dress exudes a modern flapper look and the gray tights feed into the softness. The black Loubs, Wayfarers, and black wallet, on the other hand, add a pinch of severity.
The Look For Less: Foley + Corinna Ombre Fringe Top
Sometimes you crave simplicity, and other times, you look to your top to serve as the standout piece in your ensemble. This Foley + Corinna Ombre Fringe Top ($394) does the latter. I love that the fringe is flashy but not over-the-top.
The Look For Less: Nanette Lepore Carwash Fringe Mini Skirt
I've been wanting a fringe piece in my closet to reflect my love of the '20s. I figure a fringe mini skirt, like this Nanette Lepore Carwash Fringe Mini Skirt ($110, originally $220) is good because I can modernize it with cool tees. I know it's on sale, but I don't want to pay over a hundred dollars for it.
