New Accessories For Spring/Summer: #5 Statement Bangles

Marni Spring 2008 runway




This season, bangles are interesting, BIG! BIG! BIG! and piled high. Here are a few inspired pieces. This is just too cute. Floral Jewellery by Johnny Loves Rosie. I think this would go with neutral wide-legged pants or with the 70s inspired denim that's so this season. £35





The 'Bosco-Marengo Bangle'! Even the name is killa! I really like the intricate detail on this bangle... the leaf detail and engraving are so beautiful and it is £12 from Aldo. I could have sworn it was some expensive vintage.













Spruce up a simple dress with this cuff, i think it looks a little vintage too. Isharya is apparently the new cult jewellery brand in the US, I don't know about that but most of the pieces I've seen are soooo divine.



Check out another piece from the Isharya collection. The price tag (£195) is a big pain in my neck but if you can afford it and like something more unique, why not!! Would look great with a pair of grecian/gladiator style sandals.




This raffia bangle from H&M takes inspiration from this season's Global/ethnic trend. Perfect for the summer!





Last but by no means least are Lanvin's 'Geometric Resin' Bangles. These are great for everyday wear and you can also channel the Safari trend with these. £120
So there you have it. Some of these are out of the mass population's price range but its all about taking inspiration and finding your something that's more suited to your budget. The high street is great for churning out the trends.

I love these chunky bangles but i doubt i would pile them high..i think its more elegant to wear just one

I definitely would not pile any of the first four because that would take away from their beauty. I could see the H&M bangle working piled up and worn with a floaty maxi dress at a beach/BBQ party. The Lanvin bangles are already made into a perfect piling set too.
