The glow and glitter of Ramazan has begun and you only have to step out after Iftar to experience the mad rush in the market place. This is a month when most women take immense pleasure in retail therapy, most of all shopping for clothes. And after clothes comes the hysteria for matching the perfect set of bangles. But hey, hold on. Glass bangles may be traditionally very beautiful but trends do move on and so have glass bangles. They've gone plastic!

Decorate your arms with chunky, funky plastic bangles, available in all shapes and sizes for the experimental and fashion savvy. Now that most young girls have tightened their shalwars to look like trousers, its time they replaced their glass choorian with plastic bangles too. No matter what your style is, you'll be able to carry these big thick plastic bangles on your arms though the best way is to mix and match different colours and shapes.

The good news is that they are as easily available as choorian…the markets are flooded with them. And they are irresistible. Sooner or later, even those claiming to loathe these types of bangles will come around as they go well with everything…is only a matter of how you carry them.

The best part is, you can customize the way your arms look by changing them around. If you are wearing something plain, you can put more than two colorful plastic bangles. It looks cool! In fact, the best way to rock this trend is to stack up several of them on one arm, in all different colors and materials. Not just colors but plastic bangles are available in different designs and glitter too. So all you have to do is to get a pair of simple ones and pair of glittered ones, then mix and match them with your dress.

These funky bangles go with any type of dress you choose for yourself; be it jeans or a top, capris with tunics or a mere shalwar kameez. So, what are you waiting for? Grab them and be funky this season!
