What A Stud
Just the thought of bedazzled blue jeans and jewelled jackets may give you the style shudders, but it doesn't have to. This season denim is decked out in studs, jewels, patchwork and cool embroidery—and it's not scary, promise. With subtle shine around collars, eclectic beads around pockets and feminine stitching in otherwise boring places, this new trend takes denim from being a basic piece to a stand-out staple. Pair your embellished denim with solid colour pieces if you're still hesitant on breaking this rule. If you're ready to embrace the embellish, pair with fun prints or even more denim (though there is such a thing as too many accoutrements).
