Crystals, jewels, metals: they all have a place in this fall’s wardrobe. Embellishment is a big trend right now, with designers taking their inspiration from the glittering splendor of chandeliers.

Here is a great example of super-casual dressed up.. This scoop neck tank from Torn by Ronny Kobo is embellished with faux pearls, rhinestones, and beads at the arm openings and along the racer back. With 1 inch straps, this 100% cotton jersey top measures 26 inches long from the shoulder. $150.00 from Shopbop.com

Or how about a pleated dress with a crystal embellished neckline? It is belted and lined at the bodice with a zipper and tie at the back. Measures approximately 34 inches from shoulder to hem. Available in Navy/Gray or Olive/Taupe $42.00 from Forever21.com.

Antique silver metal leaf sequins adorn this long sleeved black shrug from Topshop, who declares that embellishment is key this season. Made of 100% viscose, this shrug can go with anything from a little black dress to your favorite jeans. $135.00 from Topshop.com.

The Summer in the City Sequin Skirt in white is beaded chiffon with a full lining. The bottom hem is accentuated with contrast lining. It measures 16 inches for the size 6. $108.00 from Freepeople.com.
