Top 20 Trends of the Week

This week's top scoring articles were dominated by offbeat fashion looks, from unique rings to geek chic editorials.

Christmas is a great time to gift friends with jewelry, and the designs highlighted this week would make for great gifts that come across as more personal than mass-marketed pieces. Photography innovations were also particularly popular this week, with a heavy emphasis on unusual depictions of social phenomena like pregnancy and mass media photo editing. Photography is often thought to be at its best when it sends a loud and clear message, and these shoots are a great illustration of that line of thinking.

What these trends have in common is a clear intention to stand apart, something that's put many brands and products on the map. If you'd like to learn more about products that push the envelope and more, you may want to read Trend Hunter's Trend Reports.
