Bracelets: Ageless Accents

Ana- Viejas, can a bracelet be a stylish accent regardless of why you wear it? My mom always said: "No matter what style of bracelet you love, never wear bracelets that are too big for your arm". If you do not follow my mom's advice you could end up feeling you have a pair of shackles on your wrists.

Bracelets can be a symbol of friendship or commitment- an anklet on your left foot can symbolize you are engaged or married. In some latin american countries the red string bracelet- believed to protect from evil- is very popular. Regardless of why you wear bracelets, make sure that the style you choose, and how you wear them; represents and complements you style.

Corina - I love bracelets whether they are fine jewelry or costume pieces. As I have shared in previous posts I like to mix and match as well as stack my jewelry or just wear a statement piece. It is no different for bracelets. I wear a wide range of styles not only to complement my outfits but my mood. I wear bracelets that have a sentimental value, a special personal meaning or ones that promote well-being such as Chakra Beads. I favor bracelets that wrap around my wrists or cuffs that can be adjusted since I have small wrists. Viejas, What type of bracelet do you wear?
