junk food inspired accessories + fashion inspiration

It may seem crass to follow up my last post (which was dedicated to reviewing Richard Simmons workout videos) with a post about junk food but...it is what it is! Recently, I was gifted a couple of pieces from Betsey Johnson. Her designs are always fun, vibrant, and a little bit out there. So it should come as no surprise that these particular pieces were inspired by junk food. There is a soda pop necklace and a burger necklace. Which perfectly compliments my french fry necklace from Betsey. I've got a full combo going on now! Today, I wanted to show you the latest Betsey Johnson pieces in my jewellery collection and highlight some junk food inspired fashion items that never go out of style.

Betsey Johnson Junk Food Inspired Necklaces

How cute are the necklaces, shown above? That is one thing that I truly admire about Betsey Johnson designs. They are always so colourful and exciting. They are inspired by symbols of pop culture and have a way of showcasing an endless amount of personality. Both of the necklaces are wonderful additions to my collection. I love the little soda necklace with the crystal heart (complete with a bendy straw) and the double stacked crystal hamburger with cheese and lettuce. So cute! Both of these come on dainty gold coloured chains which work to contrast the heavy charms. These necklaces have a good amount of weight to them. That weight adds to the luxurious feeling that these whimsical pieces offer. There are so many fabulous details here. The colours, the addition of the crystals, and the gold accents all create a beautiful pair of accessories.

These necklaces have definitely been making me smile lately. They also made me realize just how many food-related items that are hanging in my closet or are in my jewellery collection. There is just something so fun and laid-back about these kind of designs. They touch on pop culture, are amusing, and a little bit unexpected. When it comes to fashion...unexpected is always a good thing. Which is why this post needs a little bit of fast food fashion inspiration.

Fast Food Fashion Inspiration 

It is becoming more and more common to see. Countless fashion brands (both luxury designers and ultra affordable brands) have been featuring popular food and snack items on their pieces. Just think back to the 2014 collection from Moschino. It was all red and yellow - and even had visors and kids meal inspired handbags. Needless to say, since then, there have been many other junk food inspired fashion items available. That includes dresses, t-shirts, hoodies, shoes, and just about every imaginable accessory. If you are searching for something that looks fun and tasty, it won't be difficult. There are plenty of high end versions as well items from more accessible brands. Here are a few pieces to inspire your next outfit. 

As you can see, it has never been easier to add a little comfort food to your next outfit. Pizza, hot dogs, ice cream, cookies, and anything else you could possibly desire can be the print or focus of any ensemble you throw together. These are just a few examples to inspire you. Thank goodness these Betsey Johnson necklaces reminded me of junk food fashion!
