Several seasons ago, shiny pearls gave way to Lanvin’s smash hit, pearls wrapped in raw-edged silk tulle,
which begat organiza- and ribbon- wrapped beads,
which meshed with the crochet trend to produce crochet-covered beads,
which have since spawned a slew of necklaces and bracelets covered with tiny miniature beads.
Which brings our trend to beads covered with beads,
which means that, quite literally, some prefer to wear irony on their sleeve.
Whew. All we can say is that this trend has truly grown up.

Black and white patterns and bright colors look exceedingly fresh these days. But remember, it’s 2006, not 1966—to keep this 1960s trend looking modern, try pairing an op art print with solid colors.
