Style Watching - Arm Jewelry: Bracelets!


In the February 2009 issue of O Magazine, they feature a variety of cuff bracelets. This is my favorite "arm jewelry". Sure, I wear other styles every now and then. But as a rule I wear cuffs, wearing two as I type this post. The cuff fits close to the wist and doesn't distract as I work at my desk or doing presentations. Most of the time, I'm perched upon my chair at the computer doing what I'm paid to do.

Most of mine are inexpensive, made of silver, copper and/or brass. This year I'm in the market to buy something a little more expensive. I searched the on-line stores (Saks and Macy's) to get an idea of what available. Here are a couple that I really like. Some high end the others in a price range that I can afford.



Sterling Silver Etched Cuff $58.65 Macy's


Links of London Cuff Sugarcane $425.00 Bloomingdales


Eliot Danori Crystal Floral $100.00 Macy's


Kara Ross - Small Gold Metallic Shirt Cuff $298 Saks


John Hardy - Wide Bamboo Sticks Cuff $1,395 Saks

  4. I was told by a jeweller that since silver is softer than gold, it makes for a less stable bracelet. It will slip off your hand easier, which could be an advantage or not.

  5. I liked the one from Macy's. I'm with you on the practicality of cuffs. They don't dangle around as you type or move about your desk. I have a few of those myself. And arm bands too, those are cool also. :) But mine are really inexpensive, I don't think I've ever paid more than 20 bucks for any of them.

    Hugs,
