Glam Rock

Although talking about Autumn/Winter trends may seem like we are getting a little ahead of ourselves, there is one trend we are just too excited about to wait for… the return of punk! With festival season in full flow and with the arrival of our new jewellery brand Mikey London, now seems the perfect time to start experimenting with this look. This year the Met Ball paid tribute to this edgy trend with their ‘Punk: Chaos to Couture’ dress code. A host of celebrities all looked stunning as they swapped their red carpet gowns for something with a little more attitude.

Mikey London mixes great quality with great design, and has created a collection that consists of exciting, innovative and quirky pieces. If you want to fully embrace the punk spirit, then leather, tartan, rips and tears can all help to achieve this style; it’s all about breaking the accepted rules of fashion. Skulls appear on various pieces in Mikey London’s jewellery collection, and what can make you appear more rebellious than rocking a skull? This sleek silver toned bangle features a detailed skull on either end, perfect as a statement item of wristwear and great for layering with bracelets in a combination of textures.

Another skull piece from Mikey London perfect for finishing your punky look whether it’s day or evening, is this black skull pendant. Hanging from a simple ball chain, a single skull is adorned with sparkling black crystals, adding a little dash of sultry glamour to this fashion forward piece.

If you want a look that’s perhaps a little less rebellious, then skulls aren’t the only way to pull off the grunge/punk blend. The colour black is one of the first things that springs to mind when I think of this trend. This sparkling elastic bracelet with alternating black faceted beads and crystal set balls can give an edgy yet alluring finish to any look.

Of course when channeling your inner rock chic you can’t forget the all important studs and spikes. Sienna Miller and Cara Delevigne certainly didn’t, and looked dazzling in black jackets generously embellished with spikes. For a chic take on this punk inspired trend, Vince Camuto has created a collection of watches with studs featuring in just the right places. This stylish black and gold watch combines subtle touches of Swarovski crystal detailing and sleek black ceramic studs for the ultimate glam rock accessory.
