Arm Candy Pose Off: Cute Bracelets, Bangles and Rings

Posted by ChickAdvisor Team | Monday February 13, 2012100 comments


While the term 'Arm Candy' usually brings to mind images of P.Y.T. (i.e. pretty young things) draped all over someone's arm on the red carpet, this week we're posing off with another kind of arm candy: baubles and bracelets and bangles (oh my!).

We heard about the so-called 'Arm Party' from the Man Repeller blog, referring to the statement-making and unrestrained stacking of all your favourite pieces at once.

What's fabulous about this trend is that you can layer inexpensive individual pieces together for a convincing off-duty model look with some major street styling skills. The look can be done in a few different ways and using some tricks, is a statement anyone can pull off.

Of course, we decided to try it ourselves and hit the Posing Wall (because that's just how we roll).


Lorna


Ever the minimalist when it comes to creating a statement, Lorna sticks to a palette of silver and black and keeps her bracelets all around the same size. She uses different shades to keep it in the family without sacrificing the style.

Michelle


Michelle's cute and whimsical side shines through with her quirky stacking of bangles and cuffs. We love how she pairs printed pieces with beaded ones and uses basic bracelets as filler. She ties everything together with a gorgeous and chunky cocktail ring. 

Alexandra 

 
Alexandra loves to use big and bold pieces to stand out. She uses bracelets, bangles and cuffs of varying sizes and colours. A braided friendship bracelet in green stands out against the warmer colour of gold and the reds and yellows are brought back down with her cocktail rings. 

Mandy 


Mandy focuses all the attention onto her oversized face watch. She keeps it cute and fun with a brightly coloured braided bracelet along with some charms and chains. She mixes her arm candy up with metals, beads and fabric pieces for variety. 

Who's arm candy are you coveting? Let us know whose style you'd most likely sport, and we'll award one lucky commenter with a beauty prize! Hurry - contest ends February 19th.

I am so in love with Mandy's style. I can't leave without my watch, those I sport a watch that is WR 50 meters and never taken if off whether I am swimming, or just taking a shower.

And with this style, I can add bling to it! Thanks for the idea. The only one with my watch is a yellow LiveStrong bracelet. :)

I like Lorna's style the best! I don't know about other peoples' styles but I personally don't like my jewlery to be too gaudy (I can't really pull it off). Too bad I don't have a watch since I just use my cell phone to tell the time. :P

Like Mandy's the best. I am a huge fan of a larger watch and it draws attention to whats around it.

I love Alexandra's style the best, and that is what I can see myself wearing. It's a mixture of so many different styles yet they work flawlessly together. The two rings are also a great touch!

I like Alex and Mandys arm candy most I'd say but all the gals have some nice pieces. I really like those braided bracelets!
