Forget dainty charms hung from a sliver of a chain. The new trend across fashion blogs and magazines is the necklace made of hardware, a statement piece comprised of a mass of heavy chains in various sizes and metals, sometimes knotted together, sometimes cascading to great lengths. Even J.Crew, the bastion of preppy style, has not remained immune to this new punk look: the necklace shown above is one from their new jewelry line designed by Dana Lorenz of Fenton/Fallon.
While shopping this week at HaShouk HaCarmel, I raided the two jewelry stands and found quite a selection of chains in various sizes, all costing around 20NIS per necklace. These fabulously inexpensive alternatives can be layerd on top of one another or knotted by hand. Below, a detail from my favorite pick:
