i like: studs + metallic accents.

one trend that has been sticking around for a little while now is studs/metallic accents.  they may seem kinda intimidating to people who aren't super comfortable being adventurous with clothes, but i promise you can pull this off.
here are some examples of ways to wear metallic accents based on comfort levels:



go easy...

 


Forever 21 - Studded High Low Button Back Top - $14.80



Forever 21 - Pyramid Cuff - $6.80



 

go moderate...

Need Supply - Twin Peeks Cuff - $60.00

 

Sheer Studded Collar Top - $17.80, Forever 21

go hard...

Nasty Gal - Elegant Stud Loafer - $165.00

 

Urban Outfitters - Deena & Ozzy Studded Platform Heal - $79.00

i think i tend to be more moderate with the trends that i wear, but i kinda love the spikes and studs on these shoes, especially the loafers. wouldn't spend $165 on loafers, but i can love them from afar/wait for them to go on sale. tell me which ones are your favorites!
