This fall’s ready-to-wear is so chock full of retro references, you may not recognize what decade you’re in from one day to the next.  From punk to grunge to 60’s “it girl”, the options are endless and the influences reach far and wide. 

If you have a dusty box tucked away in the dark corner of a closet or attic that’s full of accessories from the 80’s or 90’s, you are one lucky girl.  If not, it’s time to shop for the trendiest beads, baubles, belts and more that will give any wardrobe a nod to fashion’s glorious past while existing solely in the present.

Pretty dangly things
Earrings are the season’s signature statement.  Chunky, bold, and shoulder brushing, it’s time throw caution to the wind and let your earrings fly.
