I adore jewellery, I really do. And I love how it can be mixed, matched, worn to adorn, highlight or just go over the top.
But there is over the top and then there is Christmas tree territory. Congratulations, Kris Jenner, for extending the holiday spirit … all over your body.
Jenner is wearing an Hermes Collier de Chien belt (a statement piece all on its own) and she then piled on a gold Rolex and Cartier Juste un Clou skinny bracelet on her left arm, two enormous gold cuffs and a huge Juste un Clou on her right hand, and several oversized rings. I can only imagine what she has on her ears and around her neck. But I’d really rather not know.
People often tell me they would love to wear jewellery – they just aren’t sure how to. And seeing photos like this has made it clear to me why they are afraid.
There is no science to accessorizing, and lots of good, simple advice. Elegance is refusal. Take off one piece before you leave the house. (In this case, I think five pieces would have been smarter.) So I guess if you check yourself in the mirror and see “net worth” rather than “style icon”, it’s time to pare down. Kris, call me. It’s time to take down the Christmas decorations.

Agreed!
Way too bulky!
Cash spent does not equal style. But that seems to be the way it is these days.
Thank you! This thread made my day. “Cash spent does not equal style.” Never has, never will.
“But there is over the top and then there is Christmas tree territory.” Beyond even that lies the realm of the unaware Bozo-the-Clown-impersonator, monopolized by Iris Apfel, a woman so cash-laden that, apparently, no one close to her dares muster the kindness to declare that the emperor is wearing laugh-coffee-out-your-nostrils-volumes of bling:

Iris. Iris. In the eternal WWFashion Smackdown, the late great Nan Kempner kicked your RSS out of the ring long before you thought to jump in.
