There’s no escaping it – if the latest fashion and beauty trends are anything to go by, 90’s glam is back in a big way. From lipgloss to jelly shoes and Adidas tracksuits, it seems everywhere we look, from A-listers to Insta-stars, the grungy trends of the 90’s are out in full force this summer, and the newest resurgence has us feeling more nostalgic than ever.
Enter tooth jewellery (or tooth bling – whatever you want to call it); not to be confused with the glistening diamond grills popularised by rappers and hip hop stars, today’s tooth gem resurgence is super subtle and decidedly dainty. Headed up by model-of-the-moment Adwoa Aboah who arguably brought it back into fashion with her staple Chanel tooth gem (it’s since been spotted on celebs such as Hailey Baldwin and Katy Perry), this unique accessory can be rocked in a multitude of styles – from Nike ticks to sparkling diamantes, the options are endless.
And the best part? Tooth gems can last up to 6 months, but can be easily removed by your therapist if you want to switch up the bling every so often. So what’re you waiting for? With most appointments setting you back as little as £15, this edgy accessory is the beauty trend you never knew you needed – until now.
