You Only Need One Bold Cuff to Make a Statement This Season

This season, we're taking the stress out of accessorizing by focusing on one piece.

This season, we're taking the stress out of accessorizing by focusing on one piece. Yes, just one. Listen up: As much as we love stacked friendship bracelets (you can always save them for Coachella), we're minimizing our daily adornment process with bold cuffs. By adding just one statement piece — studded, jeweled, textural, or sleek — to your look, you emote instant, effortless chic. Try pairing a gold cuff with an all-white look, or mix up casual separates with a multicolored option. Any way you spin it, the bold cuff will have you shining all season long. It sure takes the stress out of layering, mixing, and matching your jewels, right? Shop our favorite picks for Spring below!

Try This Leather Glove Styling Look — As Spotted at Lanvin

>> Full-length gloves are one of the best things about Winter — sublimely elegant yet totally practical.


>> Full-length gloves are one of the best things about Winter — sublimely elegant yet totally practical. At Lanvin's Fall 2011 show, Alber Elbaz upped the already-chic factor by topping the collection's super-soft leather styles with jeweled corsage cuffs. While the models at Lanvin irreverently wore just one glove, we think the look would be just as glamorous with two — and with any style of statement-making bracelet. Below, some of our favorite leather glove and floral-cuff combos, for your shopping pleasure.

Get Stacked – Shop the Best Cuff Bracelets

Friendship bracelets are great for your daily grind but when you want to make maximum impact, we suggest you get cuffed.
Cuff Bracelets

Friendship bracelets are great for your daily grind but when you want to make maximum impact, we suggest you get cuffed. This burgeoning trend is all about injecting instant polish to your work, cocktail, or evening attire, and the best part is you only need one or two pieces max. We love the idea of wearing a brushed gold cuff on each wrist with a little white dress for a sleek streamlined ensemble, or flux to the other side of the pendulum and don a funkier stone-embellished or python-print version with a little leather and lace for a hardcore appeal.

Double Cuffs

>> For the past few seasons, the double cuff trend has been making waves — both on and off the catwalks.
Spring Summer 2011 Accessories Trend: Double Cuff Bracelets

>> For the past few seasons, the double cuff trend has been making waves — both on and off the catwalks. Though the look is hardly new (Coco Chanel did it in the '30s, Diana Vreeland in the '60s), Kate Lanphear, Amanda Brooks, and Taylor Tomasi Hill co-opted it a few seasons ago and it's been full-speed-ahead ever since. On the runways, Céline styled models with double cuffs for Fall 2010, and most recently the look popped up again at several key Resort 2012 collections. Here, we've tracked the chicest incarnations of the look through recent seasons — and gathered up a few pieces to help you steal this styling trick for yourself.
