These days 
studs aren’t simply for wearing in your ears or embellishing the leather jackets of grizzled old bikies. This season, they’re one of the hottest ways to dress up a handbag, a belt, or a killer pair of heels.
We’ve seen the edgy details make a splash on the catwalk, and grace the gossip mags thanks to stylish stars like Rihanna and Beyonce. Whether they’re traditional round studs or today’s modern pyramid studs, the accents add a little rock star attitude to any ensemble.
As with most fashion trends though, remember that a little goes a long way. I suggest selecting just one studded accessory as a statement piece, rather than wearing a mass of metal. I also recommend resisting the temptation to pair this trend with the current taste for python. Snakeskin and studs together can only appear overdone. Instead choose black or rich jewel tones for the coolest punk-chic look.
