Tips for Styling Bangle Bracelets

Tips For Styling Bangle Bracelets

One of the most versatile, easy-to-wear jewelry styles is undoubtedly the bangle. Utilize these accessories to their fullest potential with these pro styling tips.

Bangles are more commonly worn in India than anywhere else in the world. They serve as a wonderfully fashionable accessory, adding polish and personality to any ensemble. Bangles also symbolize femininity, womanhood, and love for one’s culture. A continuous circle of metal characterizes these bracelets, often embellished with gems or intricate metalwork and lacking any opening or clasp, making them incredibly easy to put on and take off. Style your bangles for any occasion and use them to express your unique aesthetic.

A Traditional Look

Throughout Indian history, bangles have been worn to accentuate elaborate ensembles for certain celebrations, ceremonies, and gatherings. When styling bangles for a traditional look, select pieces that won’t distract from your ensemble but complement it.

Choose bangles with gems that highlight certain colors in your saree or salwar. Doing so will create a cohesive look whose effect is only multiplied by the addition of the bangles. You can also wear matching earrings, necklaces, or pieces with similar design elements for even more cohesion.

A Minimalist Look

While bangles have traditionally been worn with elaborate sarees and colorful ensembles, you can also wear your bangles with day-to-day looks like jeans and a comfortable tee. Wear only a few more minimally designed bangles for these more minimalist looks.

Opt for thin bangles with few embellishments, stacking only two or three together for a subdued but refined look. Or, you can wear one large, more elaborate bangle with straightforward, thin-banded rings or earrings. A look like this can efficiently work for a trip from the coffee shop to the office.

An Eclectic Look

For those that want to imbue their ensembles with personality and unique expression, bangles are a great accessory. Create an eclectic look that expresses the various facets of your style by pairing one or two bangles with various bracelets of other styles.

Choose a piece to serve as the focal point of your bracelet stacks, like a large bangle with intricate metalwork or vibrant gemstones. Then, add other, thinner bracelets like chains or cuffs that complement the design elements of your focal point. This creates a pleasingly dynamic look that you can change and add to depending on the occasion.

An Eye-Catching Look

You can also easily use bangle bracelets to create a bold, head-turning look. To do this, simply stack several bangles on both wrists, preferably pieces that vary in size, texture, and the color of the gemstones they feature.

One of the most intriguing features of bangle bracelets is their sound when worn together on the wrist, a gentle tinkling of metal on metal. Layering your bangles is sure to create a stunning effect that is difficult to ignore.
