I've hardly been the type of girl that can pull off any sort of punk rock kind of fashion, but the Martine Ali Fall/Winter 2010 jewelry collection is slowly swaying me to believe otherwise. This incredible line of jewelry is so hardcore and badass that you can't help but develop an attitude while wearing it.
The collection features bracelets, cuffs and necklaces that are all donned in bolts, nuts, screws, spikes, and even bicycle chains. I told you -- it's so hardcore that it hurts. Be sure to check out the gallery for more chic designs from the Martine Ali Fall/Winter 2010 collection.
