UNCOVERING UTICA'S GEMS - Clinton - Hamilton College

This fall, designers filled the runway with all types of statement jewelry, from heavily
adorned necklines at Balenciaga to Givenchy’s piles of metallic gold chains. Yet those
weren’t the only trends detailing this season’s collections, as Marni channeled a crafty
look (think asymmetric necklaces constructed of colorful flowers) and Burberry Prorsum
directed their energies towards chunky gems on heavy cuffs and big, long necklaces.
With so many great styles to choose from, it’s lucky for us that affordable and trendy stores
have picked up on all the new looks and created their own great pieces for less expensive
prices. Here we focused on options from Anthropologie, detailing where and how you can
get the look for less.

Balenciaga is single-handedly bringing
back the choker. Who would have
thought Yet when constructed with large
pearls, beautiful gems, and glass beads, it’s
evident that both Balenciaga and Anthropologie
got it right.

Both of these pieces give off an arts & crafts,
do-it-yourself flair that is very hot for fall.
Think large glass flowers and garden inspirations
that reminisce about the spring and end
of summer.
Dawn Marie’s is a great
place to pick up second
hand vintage jewelry like
the pieces shown here.
