Making a statement

Wearing War headpiece by FRIDAY 

Making a statement with a particular piece of jewelry has always been significant to me. You could have the most simple ensemble thrown together yet those gorgeous earrings, statement necklace or killer headpiece is what gives you that extra touch to your final look.  

 During my interview with Annicia Lynton, owner of  FRIDAY  accessories I was impressed with her business savvy approach and unique ideas on fashion. At twenty-one years old, the girl seems to know what she is doing. Student at LIM pursuing a career in fashion merchandising, Lynton has already kicked off her very own successful business creating and selling fashion forward accessories.

Her line consists of highly detailed Egyptian-like headpieces in gold plated metal, bronze, silver and dark gold rust, all unique in their own way. Each piece sells for around $25 a pop and I am OBSESSED. Comparable to Nicole Richie's House of Harlow headpiece line that can sell for more than $100, FRIDAY has a unique array of carefully designed pieces that compliment every girl for half the price. 

Q & A 

When did FRIDAY kick off?

"FRIDAY started after I was asked to create headpieces for a fashion show at school last April. So many people continued to ask me about the pieces and were requesting to purchase them. That's when I decided to continue to make them."

What piece did you create for the show?

"I made the War and Egypt piece for the show. This is one of my most popular pieces."

What is your go-to fashion piece?

"My go-to fashion piece is a simple pair of comfy skinny jeans with an eye catching printed shirt...and of course a FRIDAY accessory."

What Inspires you?

"People who have great style. Someone who has that key piece that catches my eye."

What kind of girl wears FRIDAY?

"She is chic, loves to accessorize but understands that simplicity is best. She is a city girl between the ages of seventeen and twenty-four. She loves fashion and shopping."

Any other works or plans in the future?

"I am currently working on expanding my line into a unisex men's line. I just launched "HIM for FRIDAY". When creating the line, I envisioned the everyday man who has his own individual style. He is not afraid to add key pieces to complete his look. I wanted to create a line to compliment, not to compromise his everyday style."
