Bing, bong, bangles!

Wearing bangle bracelets are never a risk to dress up and accessorize any outfit. In fact, if you look in fashion magazines, women are even wearing bangles with their swimsuits. Again, I have gleaned some great photos of "women of a certain age" from "Advanced Style" who stack their bracelets and mix textures, colors, sizes and pull it off with great charisma and style.

It is worth trying this look to create a fun look and maybe even a signature look you can wear often.










You must admit these women wear their accessories beautifully.   So try it: accessorize with a bunch of bangles.  You'll cover your arms and make a joyful noise every time you wave at anyone.
               

Again, the rule of not mixing gold with silver, or with cloisonne, or wood or plastic....well, the rule is broken. Now you can wear it all - especially at the same time.

And rings of various sizes and composition. And necklaces with brooches.  It's madness out there and you definitely don't want to be left out.  Start simple and work your way up.  Or go for broke! What are you saving them for? 

We "women of a certain age" probably remember when my favorite Beatle said this -- and boy, does it apply!   “For those of you in the cheap seats I'd like ya to clap your hands to this one; the rest of you can just rattle your jewelry!”
John Lennon


Until next Sunday,

Stylistically yours,

Sooz
