Bangles have been worn for centuries as traditional Indian jewelry. In Indian and other cultures, wearing certain types of bangles makes a social statement. The use of bangles in today's American society is more often a fashion statement than a cultural or social statement. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Wear bangles in bright colors with jeans during the spring to make a casual fashion statement. Mix and match colors to fit with any color top.
2. Wear bangles for the sound they make. Bangles made from different materials, such as glass, gold, silver, wood, pearl and plastic, have distinct musical tonal qualities. The addition of gemstones or precious stones alters the tones, as well.
3. Let your jewelry style guide you to wear bangles that complement your attire. Many jewelry sets come complete with necklace, earrings, rings and bangles. If not, match the metal of the bangles with the base metal of the rest of your jewelry.
4. Watch what celebrities wear to know what to anticipate as a trend for spring, since jewelry designers often promote their products at high-profile celebrity events.
5. Surround your wrist in lush elegance when you wear bangles adorned in your choice of gemstones to a spring formal event. Choices include wide or narrow sterling silver, 18k gold and a variety of colored metals. Wear the bangles stacked or as single bracelets.
6. Wrap your wrist with costume, fashion or vintage bangles. Depending on your budget, you can start a collection of Indian jewelry, jewelry handcrafted in Mexico or bangles adorned with Swarovski Austrian crystals.
7. Wear an elegantly designed bangle bracelet as part of your wedding outfit. Bangles surrounded by diamonds or cubic zirconia stones that complement your wedding colors make treasured keepsakes.
8. Buy bangles as graduation gifts. Spring is in full bloom during graduation, and bangles in the colors of spring will complement the graduate's wardrobe.
9. Make a fashion statement when you mix round and square bangles. Square bangles are available in several metal options to mix and match with traditional round bangles.
