Amanda’s Style File: Shimmy and Shake
From fringe and tassels to pieces that give the illusion they are in motion, jewelry with movement is trending.
Jewelry with movement is making a move right now, whether it’s pieces with fringe or tassels that feel good to the touch, or jewelry that gives the illusion of motion, like these jet black enamel and diamond “Aldrin” earrings from State Property.
There is something captivating about the collision of fringe and fashion.
Models wearing micro-mini fringe dresses walked the runway at the fall fashion shows and the summer country concert craze sweeping the nation had fringe galore.
Fringe fashion isn’t for the meek or introverts, as the motion created with every movement commands attention.
Jewelry is the part of this movement trend that is sure to get noticed for all the right reasons.
Jewelry that has movement ranges from tassels and fringe to pieces designed to give the illusion of movement.
Earrings with chain drops are classic and elegant as they draw attention to the face. Traditional tassel necklaces worn on a long chain are the perfect piece for a long and layered look.
Modern pieces that play with your eyes command attention, like funky pins dripping with gemstones.
With so many ways to move, there is one thing for sure—this style is going to shimmy and shake.
