Look Like A Million Bucks With Coin-Embellished Pieces

You may not be able to use them as actual currency, but coin embellishments are a simple way to make a thrown-on outfit instantly look expensive! Often used to give off a sort of tribal look with jewelry or swimwear, coin-like studs have a way of adding a dash of shine without looking flashy or overdone. Whether in the form of coin-like metal pailletes or actual antiqued coins, the embellishment puts a unique, updated spin on tired studs, and has a much earthier, casual vibe than sequins or rhinestones. Plus, their shiny, dangly nature provides extra movement that normal sewn-on studs can't give. For example, I love how these tiered coin-drop earrings from Asos glimmer in the sunlight, and this Rachel Roy Draped Coin Tee totally eliminates the need for jewelry!
