Arts-and-Crafts Hour
With their eye-popping colors and vintage vibe, the latest costume jewelry offerings look as if they could have been plucked from a neighborhood street fair.
From wood and feather-festooned earrings to necklaces of chiffon rosettes to silver cocktail rings bedecked with teeny-tiny plastic platters of fruit tarts, the new costume pieces being snapped up by retailers have a fresh whimsy, and usually occupy a more affordable niche in the ever-expanding jewelry market.
Yeah, and is that supposed to be a good thing?
If your child has made this necklace in his 3rd grade art class, by all means go ahead and wear it around the house or during carpool.
Otherwise, avoid it like the plague.
