Trend Report: Chains

Chains

Chains are usually thought of in the sense of their practical uses: towing a car, locking a gate, hanging a light fixture. But, these industrial links have a strong presence on the fashion front, too, most notably in accessories. They add edge and toughness to a look, and are the perfect embellishment to create ultra-femme meets tomboy. Here are some of our favorite chain looks!

Metrolink

This boot from Naughty Monkey is one of my favorites! I love the rust colored leather with the bronze chain detail and the wedge heel. It's the perfect color for fall and a great transitional piece for spring.

Bracee Wedge

This little wedge pump from Not Rated is business in the front and party in the back. Wear these by day with a black trouser and by night to spice up a little black dress. I am in love with the details on this one from the variegated grey leather to the multi-chain covered wedge. Fabulous!

Bask Boot

The chain on this boot from Nicole is extra special because it can be removed and worn as a bracelet. These boots are super cute with or without the chain and are the perfect color to wear with black or brown. I love this boot with some dark skinny jeans, screen print tee and chunky knit cardigan. It's such an effortless look.

Entourage

And last, but not least, the Entourage pump from Naughty Monkey. This heel is such a showstopper! I love the sexy edge it adds to an otherwise conservative dress. It perfectly displays the beauty of chains and their fashion forward applications!

Check back Thursday for an all new shoe of the week, and get ready for some major cuteness throughout the month of November! We've got some real treats for your feet!
