Hot or Not: Exposed Zippers
In my mind, one of the best trends of the past year has been the exposed zipper. On the runways and in retail stores, this trend has shown up at various price points. Ranging from chic mini dresses with an exposed backzipper to zippered gladiators to zipper inspired jewelry, here are someof my faves to get in on this zippered action...
Oscar de la Renta silk draped blouse, Net-a-Porter
(blog inspiration from Couture Carrie's post)
David Lerner zippered leggings, Shop Bop
Love these back "pockets".
Juicy Couture zipper bateau dress, Saks
Change the look by zipping or unzipping neckline.
Tracy Feith for Target, Target
Cheap and effortless summer chic.
LNA, Shop Bop
Comes in 6 other colors!
Marc by Marc Jacobs zipper pull earrings, Saks
Also comes in gold.
Zippered front tunic, Forever 21
More cheap chic.
MICHAEL Michael Kors 'Berkley' sandal, Nordstroms

What do you think about exposed zippers? Hot or not?

On leather, sure. On anything else, not so much.
zippers are hot. i don't know how so but they just add a touch of edginess to it. i have a thing for zippers. it's just me. it leans more onto what kind of style you usually adorn yourself to ;people who are more to the classy and sophisticated side than to people who have that avant garde feel the daring ones <--- would probably love zippers. would'nt hurt but actually help wouldnt it.
sometimes. i like the yellow shirt.
Exposed zippers are nice if done right. Earrings and shoes I like, leggings are okay, but the zippers on the blouses and dresses were placed in "eh" locations. I think they look better on the back, because there's that suggested sensuality and available possibilities.
i like zippers, in fact there's a cute zipper dress at ANGL i would like to have
On dark colors - yes.
i like the earrings, but those aren't exactly a zipper, just the pulls.....otherwise, i'd say NOT
