Collection: Wearing Bracelets - Wrist Wear
REMEMBER THESE GUIDING PRINCIPLES:
- To make your wrists look proportional to the rest of your frame, choose a bracelet size that matches your wrist size. E.g. Wide, chunky bracelets for large well-padded wrists, or small, delicate bracelets for narrow bony wrists.
- To make your wrists look even smaller or larger, choose a bracelet size that's the opposite of your wrist size. E.g. Large bracelets for small wrists, or small bracelets for large wrists.
- To make your wrists look more balanced or closer to the average size, choose a bracelet that neither emphasizes through sameness nor highlights through contrast. E.g. Medium-sized bracelets for all wrist sizes.
SO IF YOU'RE A WOMAN WITH LARGE WRISTS AND YOU WANT THEM TO LOOK SMALLER...
DO
- Medium-width bangles in stone, cord, leather, or metal - wear them alone or stack them up, but be aware that more than three might get distracting.
- Flat woven bracelets - leather, macrame, rope, or shamballa all work.
DON'T
- Anything bold, chunky, cuff-style, or wide - surely the number one way to make big wrists look bigger.
- A thin, delicate metal gold chain or silver charm wire, or a narrow open bangle - any one of these worn alone will probably look like a tiny river snaking across the vast tundra of your arm.
- Large round beaded bracelets like those from the mala beads, prayer beads, or spiritual bracelet collections - these can be ok if the beads are small-to-medium, but the way the large ones stick out might add bulk.
IF YOU'RE A MAN WITH SMALL WRISTS AND YOU WANT THEM TO LOOK LARGER...
DO
- Double-wrapped leather bracelets - these are the perfect size to camouflage boniness without looking too wide.
- Medium-sized round beaded bracelets - these are also a great opportunity to pick a stone that symbolizes something important to you.
- Bracelets with hefty metal charms and closures, like those from the nautical and cork collections - the charms add textural interest without being too bulky.
DON'T
- Too-wide bracelets, like triple-stranded roman warrior men's bracelets or multi-wrapped leather bracelets.
- Enormous chains, like chunky gold links or bicycle chain bracelets. If you insist upon chains, mid-sized Cuban links or scale chain bracelets would be better.
