A Fringe Frenzy

Is it just coincidence that two items with fringe details were added to My-theresa's website today? I have always been a fan of this trend and have a suede jacket similar to the Saint Laurent one from Maje's winter collection. Fringes are usually classified as casual wear until now. There's something so refreshing about fringes - they're bohemian and trendy - and when you find the right fringe detail item - are still classy. In fact, I've never seen such a beautiful handbag with fringe details as the Miu Miu one in the gorgeous two-tone taupe shades; it is the epitome of elegance. The same concept of fringes done elegantly can be seen with H&M's Fringe Skirt from this season. It is the kneelengthskirt we all want to have in our wardrobe! You can dress it up with a plain black T-shirt Dior style or down with a denim shirt. I think I will have to stakeout at my H&M store until it comes in! Now if there is one shoe designer to put a spin on fringes it has to be Jimmy Choo. They have the Daxen ankle boots with suede fringing in either black or tobacco (looks like khaki green) or you can go all divaesque and go for the Damita version in silver python with pink and brown fringing; they definitely have the wow factor!

Have you seen anything recently with fringe details that you have your heart set on? If you think this trend isn't for you my advice is to give it a try - it's a great feeling when you're wearing a fabulous fringe piece!
