Eyewear chains are dangling in the limelight this season.

Take chains with links that are hand-dipped in 24K gold, for example (looking at you, La LOOP). But with or without those two-dozen karats, the latest eyewear chains bring a boho glimmer and glow that consumers are craving post-summertime, that necessary pick-me-up that the top fall fashion colors are also dishing out this season (see page 88).

As both stylish accessory and eyewear retainer, these chains offer a versatile accompaniment to your fall frame assortment. 

Boho Brilliance (left to right): Hilco’s Skye necklace dangler fuses fashion and practicality with a gold chain and accompanying shiny teardrop-shaped gems. Ron’s Optical model Oceana shimmers with teal blue disk beads. From La LOOP, style 764BR or “The Metal Heaven” in berry/rust has 2-3mm link chains that undergo a multistep dipping and plating process to give the necklace depth. Corinne McCormack offers chic beading in various shapes and sizes with the Festive Large Oval Bead Chain. Simple and sleek come together in La LOOP style 587PW—pearl white braided leather with a satin gold loop. Ron’s Optical Sandy is a free-spirited look with brown disk beads. The Roma holder/necklace from Hilco shines with bronze spiral and disk beading.
