Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice

Bold, edgy pieces have been all over the runways, blogs, and streets for a few seasons now- and this trend shows no signs of slowing down. Chunky, knockout necklaces, rings and bracelets are all the rage for the edgy novice or the fashionista with a more feminine style.



When it comes to fashion, opposites do indeed attract. One way to create this opposition is with your choice of jewelry. Pairing a demure earring (like those shown bellow from Alexis Bittar) with a tough leather jacket, or a girly dress with a flashy skull necklace creates an interesting look.



Even your jewelry can be a lesson in contrasts. The gorgeous rose gold and rubies in the horn necklace (shown below) by Sydney Evan is the perfect juxtaposition between sweet and sassy.
