Tips to Choose The Best Bracelets

Yes, you read that right. There is a reason why people say ‘the way you accessorize says a lot about your personality’. There are a number of bracelet styles out there and picking the right one can be confusing. Chains, weaves, charms, leather, beads, cords, gemstones and what not! How can one decide what suits the best? What can it be mixed with? Can you stack them?
Don’t worry! Here are some foolproof ways of donning trendy bracelets this season!

- Let your wrist decide

There is no math here. Go for wide bracelets if you want to make your wrist look slimmer. Cuff bracelets that are about 2 - 2.5 inches wide would work great on your wrists and make your arms long at the same time. Give well-fitted cuff bracelets a try, or just try something chunky.

- Give Beads a chance  

Women's beaded bracelets are back and how! Nothing says ‘freedom’ and ‘free-spirit’ like a beaded bracelet. They are easy to wear, beautiful, and so much fun to accessorize with. You can mix and match colors and patterns. If you're going for a boho-chic look, stack the beaded bracelets, wear a printed maxi-dress and it would work for any occasion.

- Keep it minimal when needed
Sometimes, when you are going strong with your outfit, a minimal bracelet can do the trick. And nothing says subtle like a chic love bracelet for women. Just treat yourself to a beautiful, timeless love bracelet (especially while going on a date) because that’s never going to go out of style.

- Mixing metals is a no-no.

Just stick to one metal and go all the way. Mixing metals in your accessories is a risky business, unless you are a hundred percent sure of it because it doesn’t always lead to the best fashion moments. So, when in doubt, stick to one metal.

- Men can rock bracelets too!

Never underestimate the power of men’s beaded bracelets. They not only look stylish but also denote the level of comfort a man has with this masculinity and thus, he is open to accessorising a tab bit for accentuating his overall look! Another style that deserves an honorable mention here is men’s stone bracelets, totally works as a charmer and a conversation starter!

- Consider your sleeve length

This is actually common sense, but it is important to reiterate. If you’re going to wear a long-sleeved shirt or a top, it doesn’t make sense to put on a bracelet that no one will notice, unless the bracelet holds a sentimental significance. Save them for days when you wear shorter sleeves!

- Comfort first, fashion later

Do not force yourself to wear something that you aren’t very comfortable in. No matter how good a bracelet looks, if it itches or causes rashes, do yourself a favor and give it someone who can wear it comfortably. Usually, people experience this with their 'impulse buys', when something looks really good and they consider compromising the comfort.

Take your sweet time and decide what would suit you better in terms of color, material, fit and pattern.
