Savvy vs. Splurge: Maison Martin Margiela Acrylic cuff and Talbot’s Tapered cuff

February 16, 2012
Do you have a cutting edge, modern fashion style?

Err I don’t necessarily.  I have ore of a classic, feminine style with a slight modern flair.  But even though I’m not bold in my dress, I like to add edgy accessories.  It was love at first sight when I spotted the Maison Margiela acrylic glass cuff – they tempered it so the material is extremely durable.  I also love the color too – the smokey gray is so versatile!  I’d love it even more if it went on sale, but in the meantime I found an alternative version of this cuff at Talbot’s.

Tapered Cuff, Talbot’s, $19

Would you be savvy or splurge?

    I love your savvy-vs-splurge posts! I also like more bold less girly accessories, so this is a great piece. I’d like it in different colours too

    That Maison Margiela is lovely but the price tag less so. The Talbots one is a decent dupe for the acrylic look but the shape is less bold for sure.
