What: Jewelry inspired by the movie Hairspray now available at Kitson(obviously) for $19.95. What the Fashion heads say: From The Bag Lady: However, the tacky, kitsch and slighty (sic) weird is kind of what Hairspray was all about, and I'm especially digging the idea of a 'bouffant wig' pendant necklace .
What I say: The "bouffant wig pendant" (actually called the Round Wig Pendant at Kitson) is adorable in a kitschy way. Years after the movie has come and gone it will still be wearable as a tiny pop art piece. The rest of the jewelry features actual photos of...I almost wrote "the cast" but Zac Efron is oddly the only one that gets that honor. Those are best to be avoided by all but the most ardent High School Musical fans.
The 1950s and early 60s were a decadent time in America. Back then, music had a soft swing that bore the fruits of early Rock and Roll. The harshest drink the average teenager enjoyed on a Saturday night was topped with whipped cream and a cherry. Driving in a car wasn’t a financial burden, but rather a pleasurable tradition. And to top it all off, the hairstyles were as slick as the chrome on the cars.
