Volcanic Rock Accessories

The ASOS Press Show Tells Us Lava is Hot Right Now in Fashion

— April 21, 2010 — Fashion
Chunky, volcanic rock-inspired jewelry was spotted at the ASOS press show last week as were the latest nail polishes featuring shades of molten orange and sizzling amber.

As the Eyjafjallajokull volcano continues pumping ash into our skies, I feel it’s time to give into this ‘act of God’ and become inspired. This natural wonder could inspire a whole range of products and trends. Think ash-dusted horizons with a fire show of erupting acid bright highlights. Imagine trickling lava lakes and giant plums of ash amid jagged mountaintops.

Take a look at the pictures from the ASOS press show in the gallery above.
