In part two of Accessorize it Spring 2010…it is all about bracelets and earrings! Although they are more understated in comparison to a statement necklace,  fun bracelets and earrings are hot hot hot for spring 2010.If you’re like me and get a bit intimidated by a bold necklace, why not start out with something less dramatic…such as a beautiful bracelet or a pair of  interesting earrings. Baby Steps! At first I was only comfortable with one bold bracelet or a pair of interesting earrings,  but as the time went on I discovered that accessories are so much fun and that is when I ventured out into a more dramatic land of statement necklace.

Trends come and go but you must always remember that it is all about you and what you’re comfortable with. So take baby steps and explore this seasons trends at your own pace….just remember to have fun along the way!

BRACELETS

Daring: From chunky gold cuffs at 3.1 Philip Lim  to hand embellishing hand “bracelet” at Karl Lagerfeld and a corsage-like at  Richard Nicoll.Designers are getting more daring with the bracelet options at every runway this season.

Classic: If you’re feeling like more “traditional”, why not go for a single strand of pearls  à la Nina Ricci. Or for a touch of drama try a chunky pearl bracelet like the ones seen at  Dries Van Noten.

Fun: For a quirky touch, draw some inspiration from Marc by Marc Jacobs and  layer colorful bracelets with a cutesy watch. Or if you feel more demure why not wear a simple gold bracelet with a gold men’s inspired watch.

Inspired!!!

When it comes to bracellets the sky is the limit…they are a perfect accesory for a market run or a black-tie event. Be creative and daring!  Here’s some inspiration to spark that  fashion genius within you!
