Dress it Up with Bracelets

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

So many looks this season have to do with paired down pieces and simple separates that are casual yet chic. Bracelets are a great way to dress up everything from denim to shorts to jumpsuits.

If you love the look of menswear, by you still want to keep an air of femininity, then opt for shiny bracelets that are polished and pretty. With cropped or 3/4 length sleeves, all the attention is on your wrists and the bracelets that adorn them. Add a wide cuff or a pile on a bunch of bangles, throw in an oversize clutch and a pair of killer heels, and you’ve got the perfect balance.

When wearing cool weather sweaters or long sleeve tunics over leggings, dress up your outfit by adding interesting bracelets. Choose from geometric resin bangles or heavy looking gold and enamel pieces that play well with other heavy textures.

If it’s jeans that you’re sporting during the fall and winter months, pair them with bracelets that offer a little bit of glitz and glamour. Opt for CZ jewelry that is inexpensive yet fashion forward. Just a touch of dress-up is perfect for casual Fridays at the office or lunch with the girls.

Besides, mixing different hued metals is big right now. So instead of piling on piles of gold or sterling silver bangles, try incorporating rose gold, brass, hammered metal and other textures to kick it up a notch.

Safari, tribal and ethnic inspired bangles are all the rage right now. Look for bracelets made from natural materials such as wood and cork. A little print can go a long way in adding interest and a focal point to your outfit.

Rock out with Chain Link Bracelets

Friday, July 31st, 2009

Sometimes you need to add a little edge to classic outfits, and this season, the easiest way to do that is by pairing pieces with chain link bracelets and other jewelry that is inspired by rock and roll. With the fall and winter runway shows in full swing, we’ve noticed a lot of these type of bracelets on the runway. From Burberry Prorsum to Louis Vuitton, designers are loving the edgy elegance of chain link bracelets paired with studded clutches and stilettos.

For cool weather clothes, the trend of the moment is texture. Mixing and matching mohair sweaters and wool with chain link bracelets lets you show off your classy and your sassy side. Odes to the 80s, chain link bracelets today are more high end and high fashion than ever before. The most popular styles utilize multiple strands and even use rhinestone and metal charms and pearls as part of their appeal. It’s about contrasting materials that offer a sense of balance.

Other chain link bracelets use the style but show it off in different ways. For example, we’ve spotted some cuff bracelets with chain link overlay. A statement accessory like this looks great when you want to dress up a simple white tank top and jeans. It’s an easy way to update your look inexpensively and with style. You can also mix and match chain link bracelets with others that you already own. By wearing a medley of metals, you’ll look modern and cool. This also gives you the freedom to mix silver, yellow gold and rose gold as opposed to being too matchy-matchy. Carrie Bradshaw rocked the trend well in Sex and the City: The Movie as she looked chic and fabulous in tiers of chain link. To try this trend at home, start small, then work your way up to bigger and bolder chain link bracelets and designs.
