I love Lanvin jewelry (more so than even their handbags); it’s super innovative and often vibrantly-colored and sassy. Plus you gotta give Lanvin credit for crafting bib necklace with bold accents way before they were the trend du jour. The one problem? The price. Yes, I know this is Lanvin we’re talking about and they can’t exactly offer their designs at frugal price points, but four figures for a fabric necklaces or $895 for the Lanvin Strawberry Earrings is just a tad outrageous! I can’t imagine that these red and green enameled brass strawberry-shaped earrings won’t go on sale. Sure they’re embellished with Swarovski crystals (though what isn’t these days…), but who would wear these more than a handful of times? They’re a fun gag when you’re in a playful mood and nothing so reminiscent of Josephine Baker’s banana costume should be priced at over $100.
What do you think? Snob or Slob?
