Clear is the New Black
Clear is the new black and it’s this lucite acrylic accessory trend you didn’t know you needed. Most of the time when we shop for accessories, we tend to go for the gold, silver and even the occasionally dauntless colors. But have we ever thought of going transparent? Honestly, I don’t unless there is accessibility. But it’s the new color that designers are raving about and it wasn’t something I thought of investing in but I might just take up on that offer.
Clear is the New Black
Lucite, a solid transparent plastic made of polymethyl methacrylate. It’s scratch resistant and is the best version of acrylic on the market.
Perks of the resilient clear trend?
- It’s diverse to be worn with anything
- Strong and durable so you won’t have to worry about it breaking
- Damn right affordable
Show off in a pair of clear duster earrings, a necklace of spherical baubles or maybe with a hard shell purse. The skies the limit. But it’s the revolvable movement that’s happening in fashion; 50 shades of clear. Scroll down to see a few of this transparent concoctions.
