Fashion Flash - Fun Enamel Bangles!
There’s a terrific new trend in jewelry this season – enamel bangle bracelets in every color and width imaginable! These bracelets are really quite classic and make a great fashion statement when stacked together, while also making a fun, feminine jingling sound! Even better is the fact that you can pick up an assortment of bangles to accent your wardrobe at every price point! Here are a few of my favorites!
Kate Spade
This fashion icon offers 12 karat gold plated, lacquered bracelets in a thin, stackable rope style. Available colors include black, white and red, on sale for $30. (pictured at above right, katespade.com)
Here you’ll not only find a fun assortment of bangle bracelets, but lots of other fabulous accessories too. Notable are the bamboo style bangles in solid silver, gold vermeil with black enamel and gold vermeil with coral enamel. (buttonsbows.com, $12 each)
And of course Target has some great choices, following trends with terrific prices! The “S-Bar” gold tone bangle bracelet is accented in your choice of yellow, turquoise, black, and brown ($18 each) and the “Eclectic” style is a silver toned bangle with red, green, yellow, turquoise, black, salmon, brown, white or orange enamel. How to pick just one? (target.com, $18 each)
Talbot’s
The bangle bracelets offered by Talbot’s are a bit different, with wide widths that are substantial enough to be worn alone! This is a great choice if you aren’t into the look of multiples! I really liked the classic look of the “Crisscross” cuff in either gold tone with navy, brown or green enamel or silver tone with raspberry! (talbots.com, $38) For a more modern spin, there’s a geometric patterned cuff combining black, white, blue and red enamel over gold or silver. (talbots.com, $38)
Here’s your option if you’re up for a splurge! J. Crew has designed three fantastic, over the top, cuff bracelets! First, is the opulent aqua “Stone Mosaic” bangle embellished with rhinestones and faux cabochons just ready to dazzle. ($150) The white “St. Tropez” cuff has a retro feel with a dramatic black and white floral ornament ($175) and the third is an incredibly pretty and whimsical cuff with resin cabochons and three sparkling star fish! ($150) (jcrew.com)
Here’s a jewelry trend that anyone can jump on board with! By investing as much or as little as you’d like, you can add a lot of style to whatever you wear! Look forward to some happy, jingling noise right away!
