Belt Buckle Choker Necklaces

ALYX's New Buckle Choker is Edgy and Fashion-Forward

— April 23, 2018 — Fashion

Available in either red or black, the choker necklace has a ruched material and is finished off with a press-release fastening at the front. The simple yet bold jewelry piece was made to look slightly uncomfortable but is paired with a soft cushioning underneath to offer comfort all day.

Matthew Williams for ALYX's new Buckle Choker is available online now in both colors for $190 for a limited time.
