The Latest Fashion Trend – Numbers

You might have noticed lately that some celebrities, and others of course, are wearing diamond studded number pendants. This latest trend is another expression to the connection between jewelry and the very personal.

Symbolizing personally significant dates, the number of children, or even a jersey number, the numbers are there to be shown:

Actresses such as Lucy Liu with her ‘2’ for her birth date, talk show host Kelly Ripa and her ‘3’ for her three children, teen singer Hilary Duff and her birth year ‘87 and the mother of New York Jets’ Curtis Martin wearing his jersey number ‘28’, are among those in on the apparently growing trend.

Alex Woo is one designer that is already taking advantage of the trend with her “little numbers” collection. She says it allows celebrities and everyday women to style their wardrobe in their own unique way.

Not limited only to diamonds, she uses pink sapphires too, set in silver or yellow gold, and shaped in a unique font in a style she calls “chunky”.

One can wonder what numbers for a pendent a lottery winner would pick.
