Tuesday Trend: Tortoise Shell

10/09/12 | Alexander McQueen, Christian Louboutin, Kate Spade, Michael Kors, Tory Burch, Tuesday Trend

I am going to be starting a new aspect of my favorite things – trends that I love right now so Tuesdays will be accessories trend day! The first is perhaps my all-time favorite: Tortoise Shell.  This is such a classic trend that I hope never goes out of style.  My new Michael Kors watch that I got for my birthday is the classic Golden Stainless Steel Runway Chronograph Watch, but I picked out the one with tortoise shell inlay on the band to be a different and to show off one of my favorite designs. This beautiful pattern embodies my favorite colors from fall and is a great nod to Halloween.  These are some of my favorite accessories that I have seen in this gorgeous pattern and while most of these pieces are in my budget a girl can dream!

KATE SPADE
New York ‘Franca’ Cat Eye

MICHAEL KORS
Oversized Tortoise Watch

CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN 
Fashion Lady Peep Toe Tortoise Shell Print Pumps

TORY BURCH
‘Tomi Square’ Linear Earrings

ALEXANDER MCQUEEN

Tortoise Shell Clutch
  
What are your favorite tortoise shell pieces?
