One celebrity devotee of this look is Rihanna who is often seen wearing numerous stylish articles such as the studded bag, skirt and bracelets in the photos below.
photos courtesy ultimate-rihanna.com and justjared.buzznet.comA few of my favourite (and currently unattainable) studded items are these Christian Louboutin 'Ariella' boots, Burberry 'Warrior' bag and Carrie's belt from the Sex and the City movie.

Mmmm studs! One of my favs :)
ReplyDeleteI am a BIG fan of the studded look as well. I've been lusting after a pair of studded sandals for awhile. I especially love those Louboutins, which is definitely holds the unattainable status. =/ I really liked Carrie's belt as well.
ReplyDeleteYay I added ya..that was too easy!
ReplyDeleteBarbados would be more than FABULOUS!!!!!!
And I definitely credit the SATC flick for bringing back the studs!!!
Hi danz-a great post, hitting on studs-one of my fave looks!! I really like the t bar sandals and I got a lovely cream studded belt thrifting yesterday-I will wear it soon!
ReplyDeleteI love this post!! Great shopping guide
ReplyDeleteI am a long time fan of studs, as Heidi Klum said "if it were up to me I would bedazzle anything!"
I am on stud rehab right now, I ahve everything.
BUUUUUT is that skirt on Rihanna really studded? isn't it polka dots?
love this stud post! going to link to it in my weekend reads on friday :))
ReplyDeleteDanz, darling, I'd totally go for any of your picks even if I hadn't seen them - I just love your taste! Keep it coming.
ReplyDeleteStudded clothing is really fierce. I personally prefer to see more studs in winter than in very very hot weather. However, that is the trend that will never get out of the fashion completely - there is something about studs xxxx
ReplyDeletestudded belts and shoes are totally hot.
ReplyDeleteGreat post. I LOVE STUDS!

Love studs! The Patricia Field belt is fantastic.
ReplyDeletei so so loove studs and have been eyeing thoses asos gloves. those aviators are cute also!
ReplyDeletegreat post girly!
xoxo
Love the dress! And p.s. the moroccan hair oil is effective with African-American hair as well!
ReplyDeletelike studs in theory but don't know if i am going to love it next season. maybe a pair of shoes or a belt to accessorize an outfit.
ReplyDeletePart of me absolutely hates studs (the part that gets death stares from the studded Hot Topic workers...blah), but studs really can look so chic and can add a bit of edge to most outfits.
ReplyDeletei love studs and if I could I wear them on everything...that's how hard I am!
ReplyDeleteps I filed you in a special caribbean cat all for you.
Yep, I think Carrie's belt really brought studs back.
ReplyDeleteThanks for including some affordable options!
Rihanna rarely gets it wrong. I wonder if she makes her own choices, or if a stylist tells her what to wear? I like to think she's doing all her own choosing.
ReplyDeleteLove the studs! I especially like that vest.
ReplyDeletei love studs and gosh, i want those louboutins. i just don't think i'm fierce enough to pull studs off. D:
ReplyDeleteI love studs, especially on shoes!
ReplyDeleteI feel that too much studs might be sending the wrong impression on others! But I love the studded sandals, belts & headbands! I need to buy some studs & do some DIY-ing!
ReplyDeleteLooooove this post, D! And I'm hangin in there, thanks for asking. How are you feeling?
ReplyDeleteI think I will be much happier once I have those asos fingerless gloves - they are so hot!
xoxox,

I love studs. I saw Rihanna recently at Beverly Center in Beverly Hills, that picture where she's wearing the white top I saw her that day. Her style is cool.
ReplyDeletethe belt sarah jessica parker wore is gorgeous
ReplyDeletethe headband looks really cool and i like the t strap sandals you picked out
studs are great! I think they really go hand in hand when achieving a girly-grunge look.
ReplyDeleteI love the studded look too, but I think I'd only go for it in accessories. I don't think I have quite the "rocker" personality to be able to carry off studs on my clothes lol! And I looooove that Spiegel bag!
ReplyDeleteDanz! How the heck are you?! How is everything on your side of the world? I miss you like crazy.
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love the stud trend. I really like pieces like that bracelet, very subtle but different! I'll take the CL booties, too! ;)
Gah, I adore RiRi! She's so beautiful and chic. Just like you, lovelylover!
Hope you're well, have a wonderful day bb!
xo
no way...i had no clue charlotte russe had such amazing clothes! that dress is not only adorable, but really affordable. thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeletelove the headband and the stretch bracelet! And I love how the studded belt is practically a classic now - not just for punks anymore!
ReplyDeleteI love the Colin Stuarts, Danz. They are beautiful and oh so affordable. Both bags, the headband, and the vest are great buys as well. Thanks for this post.
ReplyDeleteStuds kind of have to grow on me, I guess because I associate them with less than savory fashion statements...:.) but these finds are very chic.
Thanks for dropping by, my sweetie. Hope your day went well.

ReplyDeletea kiss!!!!

ReplyDeleterhianna is my current girl crush hehe!
The studded skirt is awesome -- I got it! And need to return it. Sadly it is too short for "mature" me. But it was really nicely made.
ReplyDeleteLovely post! You always seem to find quite a lot of treasures! I love the tiered stud dress and Sarah J. Parker's belt as well! Just beautiful! :)
ReplyDeleteHii!!
ReplyDeleteActually the photos I've posted are from google, not mine... I'll come back home in 2 days and then I'll ost some of my photos in london :) and also all the things I've bought haha! =P

ReplyDeleteI love that black and white Rihanna's combo!
ReplyDeleteI think SATC called my attention to studs.
ReplyDeleteNow I'm loving most of the pieces.
