When will the obsession with Paperclips end???

KJV — Wed, 09 Feb 2022 22:45:28 GMT

How much more paperclip jewelry will QVC pump out until the trend ends?? I'm sick of seeing everything be about paperclips.

They claim it is not trendy but i tend to disagree. I have one necklace in sterling sliver that I do like but I would never buy it in 14K gold.

They all look alike, just an undistinguished, ordinary oval link. They've been around forever; we just didn't call them "paperclips".

So much negative space and they dont always lay flat on the neck. Nowhere as timeless as Byzantine and other links.

Agreed! If it wasn't trendy then they wouldn't be plastering that label on every piece of jewelry.

Omg.... It's crazy....lol. It's paperclip everything. I bought a paperclip necklace and bracelet set in gold over silver, back in the Fall. I don't wear because there's too much of that look out there.

Samuel B's paperclip necklace is a nice one. It's not like the rest of them.

@KJV I'm sick of exaggeration and overstatement.

"Obsession"? "Seeing everything be about paperclips"?

There goes credibility. ...

I like them, I've bought three silver bracelets so far. (one Diamonique in G over S) I see a lot of it in TV dramas, it cracks me up when stylists put them on characters who can't afford their next meal. I do like the gold mini link necklaces, so tasteful, but I won't buy it at these prices.

It'll always be but until they focus on something else from the past, then it will fade .... until the next focus. And on and on and on it goes.

I have a couple of pieces that I thoroughly enjoy. I'm not tired of them just yet. Love the look!

Jackie Onassis was very fond of her paperclip necklace. In fact, QVC used to sell a reproduction.

The style has been around since the 60s or 70s, it just wasn't for regular folks. COCO Chanel designed and only a limited number were made. Jackie Kennedy had one and wore it often and the story goes, she had to wait years to get her hands on one.

@KJV This reminds me of the black spinal craze or the druzy pieces ad nauseum when they'd dim the lights when the pieces were presented.

I'm not into trends and tend not to wear them in jewelry or clothing.

@Annabellethecat66 When the older fellow used to be on, he presented a Jacqueline Kennedy necklace with similar links. I think she had it designed for herself.
