Tell Me About it, Stud!
While 80’s punk bands helped to popularize the trend of adding studs to clothing and accessories, it’s the fall 2009 runway that has aided in resurrecting it. Designers like Balmain, Alexander Wang, and Marc Jacobs have given voice to the resurgence of studded garments, inspiring mainstream stores to open their doors to the stud-loving public with a rebel yell.
And while some studded accessories carried by some stars (a la Mary-Kate Olsen) might be a bit out of your budget, or cause people to think you’re a bit out of your mind, there are some more cost-efficient, and slightly more feminine alternatives. (Don’t worry: you’ll still feel like a modern day Joan Jett.)
Alexander McQueen for Target, $20
Revolve, $91
Heritage 1981, $33
Journeys, $50
TopShop.com, about $82
