FASHION UPDATE

Arm aid: Bangles for the summer

 
 
More is more this season when it comes to adorning your arms with jewelry - chunky bangles and cuffs to be exact. They were first spotted on the runway at the Chanel, Stella McCartney and Hermes spring shows, and then they quickly made their way onto the wrists of Hollywood’s major trendsetters like Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez and Kate Hudson.
Metallic bangles and cuffs in particular look luxe when stacked on top of each other, but one special piece does the trick as well. And whether you opt for polished, hammered, studded or braided, they perk up this season’s neutrals and black and white prints.
Kick-start a new corporate look by pairing one or two bangles with a dress or skirt suit. Shirtdresses lend themselves perfectly to this office glam look. Lucite is also a clear winner this season. Pile on your plastics with an all-white ensemble or with any electric shade of the moment. Studded numbers play the perfect partner to sleek all-black looks.
So grab a piece for yourself and ramp up your evening attire with a racy jewel-encrusted bangle.
