Get That Edgy, Rocker-Inspired Look With Chain Accents!

August 17th, 2009 | Comments Off | Posted in Fashion, Trends

To chain or not to chain? These days, it’s not even a question! I used to picture a black, quilted Chanel bag with braided chain straps whenever I would hear about chains in fashion. Chanel chain straps are still feminine, but hint upon notes of edginess.

With the influx of sexy-goth vampires and emo-rocker fashions, however, chains are now popping up everywhere from hair pieces to fancy footwear and all things in between!

It’s not so much the single large strand like a Dookie Chain ala RunDMC or the early b-boy days, but rather multiple, skinny links of varying widths and lengths that are adorning clothes and accessories and popping up on every other photoshoot. Smaller, more delicate chains are all the rage right now and look great dangling from boots and pumps and really step up the air of danger in an outfit when placed on what would be basic tops or bottoms. Wear them on as many pieces as you’d like, or have it be the detail on just one. Sexy, edgy looks are in so check out the slideshow at StyleHive for some awesome chained pieces.
