Chunky Bracelets

Chanel accessorized with chunky bangle bracelets for their Fall/Winter show. Models had layers and layers of bracelets encircling their wrists as they walked down the runway. Some of the bracelets matched on another, but others were complementary.

This is an easy trend to incorporate into your wardrobe. For day, wear two or three bangles on one wrist. For evening, add bracelets to your other wrist. Layer on four or more bracelets on each wrist for night and parties.

A set of black bracelets is a must have this fall. Black can be worn with a variety of colors and is suitable for day or night. A gold and/or silver set is also a great investment.

Mix widths, gold and silver, color tones, colors, materials and shape for interest. Or, for a sleek look, keep all of the bracelets the same. If you find an especially interesting bracelet that is quite wide, keep the rest of the bangles slim and simple.

When wearing a lot of bracelets, keep your rings minimal and simple. You can still wear earrings and necklaces, but remember your bracelets will take center stage.
