TREND: Embellished Collars

There are certain "Trends" some of us should steer clear from, skinny jeans for example, they're not for everyone nor are parachute pants. We each usually have to find the middle ground with fads & trends and what works for our individual body types. 

That said, every now & then a pretty little trend comes along that works for almost everyone, this years? 

"Embellished Collars" 

I'm not going to lie, it took me a teeny bit longer than others to embrace the collar fad. 

I've never been one for "constricting" neck lines, but it grew on me. 

What I love the most about embellished collars is their ability to look anywhere from

 Classy & Feminine to Edgy & Chic. 

Now, here's how & where to get the oh so pricey looking "look" for Less. 

The Blouse

$40 Sequin + Cuff Blouse 

$29 Republic Stud Collar 

TARGET $19.99

The blouse is a go to this fall, well quite frankly by "this fall" I actually mean always. The embellished collar added to it however, adds a bit of 2012/1954. It's what I call the best of both Worlds. Which brings me to... 

The Dress 

$52 She Inside

$44 Thread Scene 

  

                                                          

$23 Forever 21

Hello Options! I love the adorable femininity in these dresses with a bit of the 60's tied in. 

Depending on the dress of choice, these are workable for the office, or a wedding. Like I said, OPTIONS :) 

The Sweater 

H&M Black Sweater $40                   $19.88 Forever21 Lace Collar Sweater  

$50 Boohoo

This "option" is so pretty & practical, the embellishment on the collar adds some extravagance to what could otherwise be a plain Jane outfit. 

                                                        

  The Collar

                               

                                Asos $31

$22 Rowme

Many shops sell the embellished collars all on their own. In all honesty I haven't braved one yet, but they are a great alternative to add to a dress you already have in your closet... or in that case a sweater or blouse as well. This is what we call VERSATILE girls, and one purchase gone a long way. 

So, I have to hear... What's YOUR take on the Embellished Collar Fad? 

All about it? or Ready for it to Leave?
