I love skulls and I really dig what Alexander McQueen has done with this iconic symbol of evil. I believe it's all contextual - it's evil in a horror movie, it's cool on a tee on the back of a hipster, it means business on a biker's leather jacket and it's kick ass when it's on your wrist.
This skull bracelet looks nothing like the self-made one that cannibal-tribe priests wear in movies and that is a great thing. The sleek polish of the individual skulls on this bracelet courtesy of the enamel coated brass gives off a feel of edginess that is constrained and yet to-the-point.
The skulls are small enough to not be in your face but big enough to not go unnoticed. A winning combination. I am not much of a jewelry person but this I would wear to death. Pun intended.
