Alexis Bittar "Ivory Coast" Chainmail Necklace: A Net Fit for Your Inner Siren

I love everything in Alexis Bittar’s store, but this draping necklace immediately struck me as unique – not just in general, but compared to the rest of his Lucite-drenched collection. Instead of looking like a knight’s armor, this gunmetal chainmail is actually delicate, thanks to the fine weave and varying stones of pearl, aquamarine, and peridot. Almost something a land-bound – and fashion-forward – mermaid would get caught in and wear. This necklace is super-edgy, but it can go ladylike with the right look. It’s all about appropriation; you just need to bring the attitude. Picture it with a simple white top (love!) – or ditch minimalism and go all out. There is no in-between when it comes this kind of piece – it’s all or nothing! At Nordstrom for $395.

Pair with: Every siren needs bait. Brian Atwood’s “Dante” platform pumps, in rich nude do the trick, and the black mesh detailing discreetly mimics the necklace’s net-effect chainmail, $640.
