Fashion always makes its way around, let’s look back to 2003/2004 fashion movement of the metal zippers, studs and spikes. Those were the days and recently those days are making their way back into existence and I could not be happier.
Apart from the punk and metal styles, the fashion industry hasn’t seen studs in a while, yet more and more designers are incorporation these little metal pieces into their collection. Studs can be a great way to amp up a plain shirt or simple a jacket without having to worry about jewelry or hair accessories. Metal studs, available in gold, silver, bronze, even neon plastic colors can be seen on various clothing items throughout stores. From tattered jeans shorts to classic tailored blouses, studs can add to any piece and give it a whole new spin.
Even though studs can be found on the usual shirts, pants, belts and jackets, they have now made their way onto many of our much loved accessories. We now are seeing studs on shoes, purses, earrings bracelets and even the more unconventional items like sunglasses (

So for those of you have been wearing studs and spikes your entire life because that’s just who you are, then start stalking up now while the items are up for grabs.
Aside from being able to purchase garments like this, you can also take up some DIY projects when it comes to studs. Being able to stud your own clothing is not only fun and creative, but it will definitely save you money especially while these are in such high demand in the fashion industry. Let’s be honest, when things are in, they can be overpriced and that’s not ideal when you’re a starving student like me. Taking the time to learn to stud your own items can be a huge benefit to you, so don’t be afraid to look into that because there are so many stores and websites that can help you out.
But for those of you who just want to get the look without the hassle, keep your eyes out and snatch them up because we may have to wait another 10 years before we see these studs, spikes and zippers again!
