Trending Next Spring: Do Your Ears Hang Low

I've had quite a busy little week, and it continues tomorrow afternoon with the Elizabeth + James Spring 2012 trunk show. More to come on that...after it happens. Short story short, I'm running a little low on time tonight but I didn't wanna leave ya hangin', so here's a little spring accessory trend to get you through the night.

I say, "costume jewelry," you say, "big and ostentatious." If we were playing the Connection Game, that would be quite an impressive answer. Regardless, large jewels and pieces of metal adorning one's ears hasn't been considered trendy for a while now. Vintage jewelry hoarders, rejoice! Put away your dainty studs and pull out the big guns--that is, your overly enormous, shoulder-grazing, so-heavy-these-could-rip-out-of-your-earlobe earrings.

Like little baskets hanging from your lobes, as seen at Bottega Veneta. 

I can't ear you! Punpunpunpun. As seen at Marni.

Oscar de la Renta didn't think one flower was enough, he had to put two. 

Pradadada! This is so Iris, methinks. Except I don't think she wears earrings all that much. She's got an arm party large enough to give one piece of it to every citizen of Wisconsin.

Peacin' out for the night. See you on the flip side. For some of us, that means the other side of the world (more to come on this later).
