Trend Update: Winter 2012 - Cuff Bracelets
Michelle Lynch, Fashion-Ade Style Director
I have a confession: I rocked cuff bracelets even when cuff bracelets were hard to find. Thankfully, this is NOT the case this season.
I have always loved the boldness and strength they portrayed in completing a look. Maybe this comes from watching film stars from years gone by. Think Elizabeth Taylor in Cleopatra: Observing the beautiful jewelry, large cuffs were surely the most memorable.
It’s almost like those cuffs conveyed some super powers showing strength (now think Lynda Carter in Wonder Woman!)
Whatever the motivation, I wear cuffs all the time; they are definitely what you call a ‘Statement Piece.’ You can take the plainest outfit and add a cuff bracelet and change the whole look.
To make the look here and now, you might try the current trend of the double cuff (and, of course, that also means 2 cuffs on each arm). I think that is a strong look if you can carry it - give it a try!
If you are a petite person, don’t be afraid of being overpowered by the almighty cuff. They come in all sizes and smaller cuffs make just as much a statement as their larger counterparts. Rock on ladies!
