Jewelry has taken a turn for the tough with the recent accessories trend of industrial designs. Mixed metals, bolt shaped pieces, studded details and anything that reminds you of something you might find at a construction site is a go!
Industrial chic accessories add edge to simple day wear, while make for unique head-turners when paired with night time apparel. If pave set crystals and rows of rhinestones are just not your style, but you still want the shine, sleek metal is just as eye-catching!
We love the rocker-chic appeal and edginess of rings and cuffs that are inspired by industrial design! Click on the slideshow to see some of our fave picks!

Usually when we think of Adidas, we think of tracksuits and tees, sneakers and other stylish active wear pieces. How about draped tops, sexy heels and edgy street wear? Before you start thinking I've lost my mind, check out the new Y-3 line of industrial chic, totally edged out pieces by Adidas. Designed by Yohji Yamamoto (hence the Y, plus '3' for Adidas' signature stripes), you know you're in for a treat of urban-chic, lust-worthy designs.
With an somber color palette of black, white, grey tones and the occasional muted maroon, Y-3 featured loose, draped tees and knit tops to go over super skinny leggings or chic wide leg pants that are moody and stylish. Fitted and flattering jackets and coats are the perfect topper to the urban inspired layering pieces of soft sumptuous knits and look effortlessly sexy and cool with Y-3's amazing footwear that have a sporty vibe but are nothing like sneakers. The menswear side to Y-3 delivers the same aesthetic of laid-back edginess and too-cool-for-school appeal and pieces for both genders include the signature three stripes on shoes and pants.
