OT, but I decided I really wanted that T shirt...then found out the 25% off doesn't apply to it. Grrr...now to decide if I want it at full price. Plus, it sort of looks like it might be a dress on me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe/page/2#post-1209073 Sun, 30 Mar 2014 02:11:15 +0000 Aida 1209073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll always love and wear studs and spikes!

As a motorcyclist myself, I am also acutely aware of not crossing the line of looking costumed. I'm not a "biker chick" and would never wear studs, random zippers or other unsafe metal bits while actually riding. The safety gear I wear will never be a style...unless it somehow becomes hip to dress like a Power Ranger, lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe/page/2#post-1208724 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 19:19:18 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1208724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope they're not out, because I'm still in hopes of finding the perfect studded grayish color jeans belt. <br />The loafers look awesome for your style! Very cool looking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208722 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 19:15:15 +0000 CocoLion 1208722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm seeing some cute sandals with studs and other embellishments. &nbsp;Also, buckles are big! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208703 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 18:47:39 +0000 Ledonna N. 1208703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>STUDS will never be passé </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208679 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 18:21:10 +0000 Echo 1208679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Studs fit into the same category as moto jackets for me. Sometimes they are trendy and everywhere, and when they are not, there is still a category of people who will always remain true to them. So they are never "out", just like when they are "in" or trendy, the people who have been wearing them all along roll their eyes.&nbsp;</p> <p>Personally, I love the loafers, and I think the studded detailing is small enough to look fresh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208604 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 16:42:54 +0000 mrseccentric 1208604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i've been pondering this question the last few days, do not know why - how something can be 'passe' or 'over' in terms of overall trendiness but for the right person they can wear that element for decades and always look fantastic.</p> <p>I think it comes down to your own personal style aesthetic. In that gorgeous pic rae posted (ty rae!) my eye went to the gorgeous oatmeal tank dress with the lace stencils - to die for!!! i have a very strong edwardian femme element to my style, and i'm always incorporating lace in various ways. So while that type of dress will be trendy now, and other people may wear it as a 'trendy' piece, for me it would be closer to a signature part of my look and i could wear it for years (if a think knit like that would last for years, which it won't).</p> <p>So for a classic/elegant type person who wears a lot of black, they could get those (truly droolworthy) spiked loafers and 'get away' with it while studs are on trend, but feel awkward wearing them in a year or two.</p> <p>But a rocker/edgy/apocalyptic warrior princess could wear them for decades, as leopardluxe says, as they are an expression of her true style center.</p> <p>Which is why Angie says, "if X is your thing, when X is in style BBQ!"&nbsp; FWIW, i think studs as a trend are going to flame out in the next 6-9 months.&nbsp; Happy Day all! steph </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208580 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 16:03:38 +0000 Angie 1208580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not passé at all.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have been personally over them for about 2 years though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208576 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 16:01:35 +0000 Peri 1208576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I claim no, because my current bag (one of three I own) has studs and I don't plan on changing it out any time soon.</p> <p>And you were right about Allsaints, I can see addiction potential!&nbsp;I'm currently wanting this top and for 25% off I may go for it:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.us.allsaints.com/women/uncategorised/allsaints-flora-mortis-t-shirt/?colour=250&amp;category=773">http://www.us.allsaints.com/wo.....;category=</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208542 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 15:32:54 +0000 DonnaF 1208542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FWIW, the studs on my gloves are the nailhead type -- like polka dots.&nbsp; If I were to ride public transportation more regularly, particularly regular (non-commuter) buses, I would definitely buy shoes or booties with the sharpest studs possible.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208532 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 15:24:43 +0000 Beth Ann 1208532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have never studded.&nbsp; I'm not sure what that says about me.</p> <p>There are, however, studly types, who stud as a form of self expression.&nbsp; I suspect you are a studly lady, for whom nailheads are like Hermes to Grace Kelly.&nbsp; </p> <p>Seriously, though, those shoes are amazing.&nbsp; The loafers are an unexpected twist on a classic that is trending -- perfect for your real-life style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208519 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 15:02:30 +0000 ironkurtin 1208519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As with anything, it's all in the details, but I can't imagine studs ever not being an option. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208516 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 14:53:50 +0000 Gennifyr 1208516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they are forever in.

I have stud earrings that are studs, lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208513 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 14:43:38 +0000 Mo 1208513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure. For one thing, there are a lot of versions of studs. &nbsp;Simple nailhead ones, pyramid ones, spiked ones, and on and on. &nbsp;Seems spiked ones, especially on shoes and bags, have been having their time in the spotlight recently. &nbsp;The pyramid kind I associate more with Hot Topic goth style or wannabe late 70's London punk&nbsp;and for me they are a bit overkill.<br />I, for one, love screwhead or nailhead&nbsp;studs and will incorporate them as accents as long as I have, or can find, them. &nbsp;<br />Not really an answer, huh? &nbsp;Sorry! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208507 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 14:33:28 +0000 Golden 1208507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If studs are your thing I don't think they are truly ever passé. My daughter has a studded bag and a studded belt that I love and is so "her".</p> <p>Those studded loafers are great, you should definitely get them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208477 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 13:46:59 +0000 Janet 1208477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like Joy's take on it! Never out IMHO. I don't like them too overdone, but I will definitely continue to enjoy wearing them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208468 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 13:24:30 +0000 Angela K 1208468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the shoes. I agree that they are classics (with an edge) that you should be able to wear forever and look fab doing so! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208461 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 13:14:18 +0000 Anonymous 1208461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Studs look a tougher version of polkadots, which are classic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208447 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 12:57:28 +0000 Susie 1208447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was feeling a bit over them but then I got the loafers in the photo. I wore the all black the other day and got several compliments.</p> <p>The ones you are eyeing are way cooler! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208433 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 12:29:19 +0000 kerry 1208433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Alexandra, I thought the same thing I'll admit, studs scare me a bit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208429 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 12:24:10 +0000 leopardluxe 1208429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Studs will never be passe in my book. The degree of "studdedness" in an entire outfit may become passé or be more or less&nbsp;"trendy" than anything else --&nbsp;but a classic piece, like a loafer with subtle studs will still be a classic piece, imho. Even when the overly studded trend fades, wearing a classic piece with this type of accent with a crisp white shirt and trousers will just make an ensemble look a little bit more edgy (in other words, these are the types of pieces that end up staying in my closet for 30+ years and getting lots of wear as I combine them with other more "on trend" or "simply classic"&nbsp;outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-studs-passe#post-1208380 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 08:04:15 +0000 rachylou 1208380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ell, I think they're out...
