What is a Bangle Bracelet?
If you’re a fashion enthusiast or jewelry lover, chances are your jewelry box is full of bangle bracelets. These elegant and versatile accessories have been adorning wrists for centuries, adding sophistication and elegance to any outfit. In this blog post, we will explore the question: what are bangle bracelets? In addition, we’ll name our top 3 favorite bangles from ALOR for Summer of 2023 and how to accessorize them. Get ready to elevate your style and create new looks with this bangle bracelet guide!
To start off, what is a bangle bracelet? A bangle is any bracelet with a secure closure when on the wrist. This most common type of security is a clasp on the underside of the bracelet. At ALOR, our clasps are an easy design that you simply slide back and slip over the opening to secure. Our bangles are also an oval shape that mimics the natural shape of the wrist, so you don’t need to worry about them flipping around throughout the day. Bangles can also be a slide-over design which is a completely round bracelet that slides over the wrist. In contrast, a cuff bracelet has an opening on the underside of the wrist that remains open when wearing. While we love them both, we’ll now focus on our top 3 favorite bangle collections from ALOR for the upcoming season and how to accessorize them!
3. Elevated Collection Bangles
ALOR’s Elevated Collection features round and square stations bedazzled in diamonds and 18kt gold and elevates them – literally! These stations appear to be floating on iconic stainless steel cable. You can play around with elevating them upwards or downwards or mixing both together. With complementary rings that match the designs of the bangles, you can choose to match your suite or contrast the colors. With so much to look at in the colored cable, geometric stations, and colors of gold, we love the way this look is styled with a simple white gauze shirt and denim. Some days you may want your apparel to do all the talking and your jewelry to be simple and blend in, but other days you want your jewelry to be your whole look! These bangles are classic enough to wear with any outfit, but bright enough to make the outfit. Our favorite combination is the Yellow Cable Square Bracelet with 18kt White Gold and the Grey Cable Round Bracelet with 18kt Yellow Gold. Playing in the same color family but in reverse, these two balance each other perfectly and are a match made in heaven!
2. Freshwater Pearl Bangles
While pearls are truly timeless, they have certainly made a resurgence in the trends starting in Spring of 2023! Their natural beauty is unparalleled and makes the perfect companion for any outfit. A pearl bangle can be the finishing touch to evening apparel for weddings, graduations, dinners and more. In addition, they are also a classy statement when paired with a casual outfit running errands or heading to work. Freshwater pearls are known for their consistency in size and beautiful luster. Our Freshwater Pearl Bangles are uniform to a T! We love the way they are finished with iconic stainless steel cable and color-matching beads. If you’re into the simpler things in life, just one of these bracelets in the color of your choice instantly upgrades your look. But if you’re looking to go more trend-forward and capitalize on the recent revival of the pearl runway style, stack them all together! These pearls are a beautiful blank canvas, decorated with color and style from ALOR.
1. Stackable Bangles
We can’t talk about bangles from ALOR and not mention our collectors’ top favorite, stackable bangles! From day to evening, stackable bracelets are the perfect fashion accessory. Choose a stackable cable bracelet with all stainless steel or 18kt gold and diamond accents, perfect for casual or dressy events. They are the start to every outfit, and the finishing touch, all in one! Our barrel stackables are particularly popular for their fluid design with rounded barrel stations and dazzling diamonds set in 18kt gold. The beauty of ALOR’s colored cable is that you can never go wrong with stacking. All our colors of cable are designed to effortlessly mix with one another. When it comes to the barrels, the varying number of stations also mix perfectly together. Pick up one now and start a lifelong collection of accessorizing and fun.
