Fringe Benefits The fashionable set is dripping in fringed ensembles and accessories reminiscent of decadent fashions of decades passed. The anonymous indie DJ duo known as Flight Facilities appealed to the most decadent dreams of women in their hit, Crave You when they referenced, “walking into a room, dripping in gold.” It seems top designers were also power plating while looping the track on repeat, for the fashion world is definitely dripping in varying implementations of luxury. Fringe hangs softly from dresses, evening bags, totes and even fine jewelry to put a little extra swing in our step the next time we walk into that room.

Why, Naturally Shoes in pared-down shades are the perfect compliment to the brights happening in men’s fashion this spring There’s an obvious influx of bright and bold fashion for men this season. The ante has been upped and the boys are officially making some noise; but we also find a strong presence of neutrals happening below the equator. Shoes in crisp shades of white, natural, cream and camel prove practical in most instances and whether you’re looking to complete a high-fashion evening ensemble or just kick it in some espadrille-inspired sandals, the options are endless.

Boldly Go Injections of brights in ready-to-wear and accessories have the boys going bold Menswear tends to err on the side of safety for the most part. The fashion set sometimes pushes the envelope but more often than not, a busy print is as far as most will go. This spring, designers have taken it upon themselves to expand the acceptable palette beyond blacks and blues to introduce extra bright pieces on the menswear scene. From a shoe to an iPad cover and even an entire suit, there are options for every man to boldly go where never before.

Face Forward Cameos, once acting as representations of rulers or important dignitaries, are making their way back on the scene. Dating back as far as the third century B.C., cameos employed a method of carving reliefs on to anything from semi-precious gemstones to hard stone, shell or glass. Acting as objects d’art before rapidly becoming a jewelry trend thanks to Britain’s Queen Victoria, cameos became a tradition with history that most other jewelry trends lack. Today, we’ve modernized the trend and made it all our own; including tousled loose-waved hair and jewels placed in all the most anatomically correct spots.
