One of the easiest ways to transform a simple outfit into something amazing (especially when you’re in a rush) is with jewelry. I’ve always been a huge jewelry person, especially when it comes to bracelets –-and as luck would have it, one of the biggest jewelry trends this fall is having a wrist full of bangles, chains, cuffs, and straps. (Basically anything you can wear around your wrist!)

It’s easy to make this trend your own; by mixing textures, colors, and shapes, you get a truly unique look that you can just as easily wear with jeans and a t-shirt, a flirty summer skirt, or even a nice dress. I’ve recently been super-inspired by what Leandra Medine of The Man Repeller has been wearing on her wrists (note the stunning Cartier love bracelet on the far left):

 

Here are my styling tips for a similar look:

*Side note: Leandra may not be wearing the gemstone bracelet in Step 5, but a little bit of sparkle never hurt anyone.

 

How will you wear this jewelry trend?
