Although I'm more influenced by the past rather than the future in regards to fashion, I have to admit that the TomTom Jewelry Spring 2010 collection is making me reconsider my accessory choices. These avant-garde accessories are statement pieces that can spruce up any outfit--and would be interesting to pair with my rather Victorian-esque wardrobe.
Yet, I can detect a bit of a retro streak in the TomTom Jewelry Spring 2010 collection as well: a sort of 80s-inspired look, don't you think? Using 18k gold, oxidized silver and gunmetal, however, designer Elena Coleman most likely tapped into her architecture background opposed to anything else.
