i've been wanting to show you all this completely wonderful barbed wire bangle by luc kieffer for a while now. i love its potential to add the perfect dash of hip edginess to any casual outfit.
if you love the spirit of the barbed wire, but aren't sure what your boss would say, these leather stud wrap bracelets by cc skye are a chic middle ground. my absolute favorite is the white - i can see it working with everything from a floral summer dress that needs a little edge to adding the perfect finishing touch to a basic sweater & jeans.
and if you're just not feeling the hard core vibe at all (don't you love that my idea of hard core is a bangle?), these darling floral bangles by leila will add color and style to even the most basic ensemble.
and last but not least, while i don't love the current designs as much as i loved last summer's, i'm still pretty obsessed with most of the bracelets over at j.crew. i love this kaleidoscope version, this gorgeous diamond pattern, and even this completely over-the-top stone mosaic cuff - i have no idea what i'd do with it, but it falls squarely in the category of 'so pretty i don't have to have a reason'.
