Think of your jewelry as the icing on the (wedding) cake. It adds that final touch of frosting that takes your look and makes it wedding day worthy. But while your bride may be blinged out in diamonds, you may want to go a more rustic route. These five industrial chic pieces are a slice of steampunk, a dash of urban and a whole lot of style.
Golden Gear Bangles: This trio of gear-shaped bangles, in two alluring widths, adds a gleaming dose of edginess to anything you pair them with. Available for $38 at C. Wonder.
Steampunk Cuff Links: Add steampunk style to your suit with this striking set. They also make the perfect wedding gift for your butch bride. Available for $165 at etsy.com.
‘Build Your Reputation’ Earring Set: Crafted from sparkling silver metal, this radiantly rugged set is styled to resemble nuts and bolts for a subtle nod to that sexy jill-of-all-trades style that femmes find so sexy. Available for $14.99 at Mod Cloth.
Open Rectangle Ring: Made from reclaimed metals, this stylish ring would be a unique option for an engagement or wedding band. (Bonus: It reminds us of the marriage equality symbol.) Available for $140 at aliceroche.com.
