The key to Wearing Bracelets

Happen to notice that your favorite celeb is walking around town with an armful of bracelets? It's hard not to notice when there's 5, 10, 15 or more bangles, beaded numbers and cuffs on their arm. Not only has this trend taken off casually, now, it's starting to pop up on the red carpet too. We've taken notice and thought it noteworthy enough to explore in more detail.

Not sure if it's due to the resurgence of the boho chic look we've been spotting, but the layered bracelet look hardly flies under our fashion radar. Although it's meant to look effortless and chic, it's far from an afterthought. Celebs like Taylor Swift and Jessica Szohr have been spotted around town with a plethora of bracelets on hand. Taylor has leather cuff bracelets engraved with the words Romeo and Juliet, which are an ode to her recent pop hit. Young starlets are embracing this look and making it their own, incorporating initial charms and engraved bracelets for a one-of-a-kid look.

Beaded bracelets and leather corded bracelets used to be for weekend wear and give off a vacation vibe, but when they started showing up on the red carpet on A-listers like Halle Barry and Elle Macpherson, we were intrigued. Dressed to the 9s, these ladies donned beautiful dresses and complimented their look with casual wristfuls of beaded bracelets. So does this mean celebs are tossing their diamonds for a more toned down look? Our guess is probably not, but it's nice that this alternative is wallet friendly and easily wearable.

The key to wearing an armful of bracelets is to keep the rest of your accessories simple. Let the bracelets act as the focal point of your outfit, and steer clear of intricate fabrics, patterns or necklines. With a few sentimental bracelets mixed in, your jewelry becomes a conversation piece and a unique style statement all your own.
