Be Your Own Knight In Shining Armor With These Chainmail Gems

chainmail-trend-1

We were never really the kinds of girls who dreamed about the day our knights would come, but we did occasionally wish we could get a hold of their shiny armor. We finally received our chainmail fix this season as the meshy trend popped up in vest-form at Vena Cava and as a collared shirt at Marios Schwab. Outfitted in any one of these pieces, we're pretty sure we could challenge King Arthur to a bling-off any day!
