It’s All in the Wrist
Newsflash: if you want to be cool in S/S ’11, you better not be neglecting your wrists. Wrists are where it’s at.
It’s a chicken and egg scenario. Which came first: the trend of crisping out your wrists– bracelets of almost any style (“tribal,” friendship, chain, leather, cuff), watches (it’s cool to wear more than one at a time), along with a purse strap draped over the forearm (optional but encouraged), and the street style photographers just picked up on it and starting snapping away, OR, did the fashion elite start noticing that street-style photogs love the up-close wrist-centric tableau shots and they starting adding more and more to their wrists, creating complete outfits solely on the wrists, to compete for some lens loving?
We may never know, but if you want Jak and Jil to look your away, start giving your wrists a little love.
