zip it!
Posted on 28. May, 2009 by janelle in fashion bailout
Big last fall and still very popular now - the exposed zipper. No longer are zippers hiding, buried beneath fabrics - no, no! Zippers have put themselves out there to say, “Hey - I’m not just functional. I’m awesome to look at!” I must admit, I kind of like it.
Pieces with exposed zippers can add a bit of “edge” to any outfit. But, if you’re not going for a total “rocker” look, try pairing the item that has the exposed zipper with more feminine pieces. Here’s a look at some {budget}fab* options for this trend…
- Lucette Strapless Dress, $19.80
- Zipper Necklace, $6.00
- Tie Dye Zipper Front Top, $17.50
- Zipper Leggings, $26.50
- Arcane Zipper Pump, $30.05
- Cap Sleeve Sport Dress, $24.99
- Arzachena, $11.98
Personally, I love the red Arzachena clutch. I’d play up the edginess of that piece and wear it like this…
- Polished Round Earrings, $3.80
- BFF Hearts Tank, $6.90
- Lydia Chain Necklace, $9.80
- Mesa Rope Bracelet, $2.80
- Braided Bracelet, $9.50
- Showstopper Skinny Jean, $24.50
- Fanulanu, $69.98
- Zoya Nail Polish (Juicy), $6.00
