A trend that annoys me

The 80's and 90's trend? I can't stand it! Possibly because it is so far removed from the jewellery I make, and how mass produced, bright cheap and nasty it looks. I know the whole point is to make a statement and for it to be bold and look a little cheap but it does all that in a way which to me, is just very very bad taste. Let me show you some examples: 

 

To me that Lion looks so poorly made, it lacks detail and design!

Why? I just do not understand. What annoys me too is how the 90's look tries to hard to stand out and be edgy, which is pretty difficult when everyone else is wearing it and Topshop is stacking a whole row of this jewellery.

Because I appreciate detail, age and intricate design, this jewellery just completely goes against this concept. It's not attractive, it isn't unusual and it represents a whole trend that really-isn't-that-great. The day that I can go around London and not be bombarded with people and places fully loaded with 90's-ness will be a very happy day.

90's is not vintage, especially when it's stocked in these supposed vintage stores when half the time these clothes are just second hand. Nothing annoys me more when people confess to love vintage when all they buy is a pair of Levis shorts.

That's my rant of the day over! Meanwhile, I will leave you will this image:
