Spikes, spikes, spikes... and studs!
Everywhere you look.
Metal hardware is
all over the runways, magazines, fashion and beauty blogs and, hence, all over the fashion stores online and offline, typically in the form of studs, spikes, and grommets.
I must admit my first reaction was FEAR.. Come on! Look at those sharp pointed spikes and dare to blame ME for feeling that way! Yes, my first question was "Is this trend even safe" ?
I know, I sounded like an old lady right there... what can I do? I'm just trying to be honest!
Second reaction was "Heavy Metal, Hard Rock ! ... Yum! I wish there was a Hard Rock Cafe nearby..." LOL There wasn't one, by the way :( Again, 100% brutal honesty!
This trend sure spread like a disease and it's obvious why it's calling everyone's
attention, as it sets itself apart from any other trend I've seen in a
while... and after looking at a ZILLION items... I'm slowly starting to see something fun, edgy and different on this trend :) See ? Persistence is always key!
So, this brings me to today's post. I went window shopping the other day, to show you that on this side of the world we've ALSO been Spiked Up! In fact, we're SO SPIKED UP guys... that the TRUE challenge is trying to find something that DOESN'T have spikes OR STUDS.
I promise I'm not exaggerating !
Take a look!
