ICING is a lifestyle brand that connects their demo with the fashion the lust for. Bring-ing chic accessories to the young 20 something is what we do best. The Grunge Goddess feature is brought to life through mixed media. Leather on metal, fabric on metal and mixed metals create an innovative and funky look. The assortment focuses on strappy bags, bold necklaces, bold bracelets, innovative legging silhouettes like the cycling style and close to head shaped hats.
