Eric Wilson of The New York Times asks "Is Shine Losing Its Luster?" and talks about how bling may soon be going out of style as the fall season approaches - namely the decline of using Swarovski crystals in fashion. He points out that Harper's Bazaar has a headline opposite a Swarovski ad that says: "So Long, Sparkle".
This brings to mind articles like this that influence consumers and puts it in their minds that "if you wear it you'll be considered 'out' of fashion". It's funny how one person, one editor, or one blogger's opinion can influence your sense of style. The fashion industry is 
based on bling-bling. I just don't see it fading away. Sparkle and shine will always be in my life, how about you?
