# Metal Mouth Pendants The Chrishabana Smoking Lips Necklace is Super Sultry By Shelby Lee Walsh | Published 2009-06-15 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chrishabana-smoking-lips-necklace References: [oaknyc](http://www.oaknyc.com/women/new-items/habana-lips-necklace?enlarged#enlarged) I don’t endorse smoking, but I must admit that there is something very sultry about this Chrishabana smoking lips necklace from Oak. The gunmetal kisser is complete with a butt hanging from its mouth on a 20” double chained necklace. Although this necklace may look smokin’ hot, in real life, no one would want to kiss those lips. **Implications** - The mainstream glamorization was born with sultry actresses like Sophia Loren or Audrey Hepburn, and continues with pieces like Chrishabana's Smoking Lips. The question of why smokers continue to smoke regardless of health concerns is cause for much speculation. Regardless, companies can easily capitalize on this lasting movement by using smoke imagery in a subtle way. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.7/10 - Popularity: 8% | Activity: 35% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/jewelry) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Mainstream Glamorization:** Create products or campaigns that tap into the appeal of sultry and glamorous imagery. - **Health Concerns:** Develop innovative solutions to address the ongoing challenge of getting smokers to quit. - **Subtle Smoke Imagery:** Incorporate smoke motifs in design or marketing materials to appeal to consumers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Accessories:** Design and manufacture smoking-inspired jewelry or accessories. - **Health and Wellness:** Invest in the development of new tools and strategies to assist smokers in quitting. - **Advertising and Marketing:** Create ads or campaigns that utilize smoke imagery in a creative and compelling way. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Opulent Smoking Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smoking-accessories1.md) - [Bejeweled Lip Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diamond-lips.md) - [Coagulating Lip Oils](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiss-of-death-lip-oils.md) - [High-End Organic Statement Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/s-carter-designs.md) - [Anxiety Whistle Necklaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anxiety-whistle-necklace.md) - [Y2K-Inspired Flower Necklaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foufou.md) - [Sleek Smoking Set](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-of-puff.md) - [Smokable Art Pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flower-by-edie-parker-1.md) - [Wavy Smoke Wear Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-smoke-wear.md)
