Just would like to say happy 1st of August to all my readers, exactly 5 months left of this year, hope you kept with your new years resolutions.
YOUR BRACELET
SHOULD NEVER BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT!!!
From an early age, I adored jewellery and being a creative
littler wannabe diva I made my own jewellery which is a craft I am so very
proud of.
This craft really grew with my 3 years of studying fashion
design at the Spero Villioti Elite Design Academy for one of my subjects was
beading and I learned all new ways to embellish, and found out about stores
selling unique beads.
I love having one of a kind pieces, but my budget doesn’t allow
me to have them done professionally so I use what I have. Looking at stores
like Sass Diva, Mr P, Woolworths and Fashion magazines like Elle and Grazia, I more or less get what sort
of trends are in for bracelets and over the years I have managed to collect all
sorts of bracelets and in this case quantity over quality.
I love buying bracelets that are in packs of different widths
and textures mixing and matching is the only rule I
apply to bracelets, but if you can’t pick up your hand then you have way too
many bracelets on. When I was younger, I prefer metal and I loved it to make a
noise now at this age I really am into more textured braided bracelets that’s more
earthy and peaceful.
When on holiday I pack a mixture of bracelets instead of a
bracelet to go with each outfit, but at home because I have all these options it
drives me nuts to make a choice.
Tips to display your arm
candy
- Younger girls look
more fresh and upbeat with bulky accessories
- If you prefer slim line bracelets, but also want to try the stacking up style, try it with just different textures
of bracelets
- When wearing bracelets with
crystal it often hooks on my clothes and so I put glue on the tips this is very
tricky because if the glue messes on the crystal it will make the crystal look
dull. (If you want a tutorial on this leave a comment below)
- Another way to wear a charm
bracelet and you want a bulkier look add a watch and simpler bracelets to show
off the charm bracelet
- If you have tiny wrists like me and share your bracelets with other people like I share mine with
my mom and sister so when I buy store
bracelets and they are too big for your you can add links from a craft store
add to the bracelet to make it fit you and the other person wearing it.
- Bracelets never have to
be the same colour or texture the more strange and unique the better.
A little tingle there, a little wiggle here, and a whole
lot of drizzle everywhere
