Fall/Winter 2009 Fashion Trend: Studded Accessories

Studs are here to stay! Last month I mentioned this burgeoning summer trend and it looks like studs are sticking around for the fall. Above: Givency, Louis Vuitton, Manolo Blahnik, Miu Miu. While this entry is limited in focus to only accessories, studs did not just adorn bags and shoes on the fall 2009 fashion runways. Studded clothing was also prevalent. However, because there is basically a plethora of studded items in general in retail stores right now, I decided to limit my focus to accessories only.
