Chain


Oversized chains are the trend of the moment, from chain links (like the Michael Kors oversized chain-link necklace pictured) to bike chains (like the Louis Vuitton bike chain necklace recently featured in the August 2009 edition of InStyle magazine). They definitely bring attention to where you wear them. M.Kors design for the neck draws attention up, while DVF has a design for an oversized chain link bracelet which stands out, yet can go with different prints, solids, etc. Both make them look beautiful when combined with the perfect wardrobe. They make it about the sheen and not about the gemstones. These are simple and elegant pieces that bring in a dominating, yet feminine, appearance and structure to a woman wearing it.

Clutch

Alexander McQueen skull knuckle-duster clutch

What a genius design! Combining chic and edginess to his pieces-with the jewel encrusted duster and texture on the skin of the clutch. It's like having a weapon attached to you at all times while also never dropping your clutch because it is without a strap. It's no wonder though because you'll be beating off all the other jealous ones who don't have their own! He definitely knows how to put things together for new looks.
