Be Your Own Knight In Shining Armor With These Chainmail Gems

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!
