Spring 2012 Trend Alert: Stacked Bracelets


I am crazy over an arm full of stacked bracelets. Pick up any fashion magazine and you will see braclets stacked in leather, string, braided, gold, silver with cuffs and watches.


Here are a few tips on how to wear this trend:

Polished- go with a chunky gold watch and stick with a basic color scheme.

Evening- how about adding some sparkle. Start with a high polished large silver cuff with a few diamond or crystal bracelets. Vary the sizes or textures.

Lastly, roll up those sleeves and carry a clutch to show them off!!!



Polished



Colorful!




Summer!

Sunburst Mirror- These add instant glamour to any room and can be found in just about any store. They come in all different sizes and finishes.











Lucite- Lucite adds super cool vibe to any room! It can be a tray, coffee table or ghost chair!












Hide Rug- These add softnest, warmth, and texture and are currently the hottest item. You can use them in just about any room and layer them over area rugs. I like the look of layering them over seagrass rugs the best!








Graphic Pillows- Add Color and Pattern and texture. Pillows are a fun, affordable way to freshen your space.
