Big, Bold Cuff bangles, huge bangle Bracelets

Spring 2010 will see bracelets become big, oversized, chunky and heavy, metal bracelets in gold, silver and black, embellished with big stones. Colourful plastic bracelets and bangles are also in trend.

Making a statement this season couldn’t be easier with the various bracelets and bangles available. Make you’re statement this spring by wearing a bracelet that everyone will be raving about.

The bracelet trends for 2010 are many.

Tribal summer safari jewellery is set to be a big story this summer. Bracelets made of seed beads, corpulent beads and wood or coconut.

Fair trade jewellery is also becoming popular combining style with ethics.  There are many designers creating fashionable fair trade jewellery bursting with colour and helping the planet.

With the recession out there and gold prices very high, earthier metals like brass and copper are used to make amazing jewellery pieces. Look out for brass jewellery that is beaten, hammered and coiled. If used with seed bead, coconut and wood you would be combining two trends.

Cuff bracelets have been a big part of bracelet trends and still remain big this season.

With many celebrities like Sarah Jessica Parker, Cate Blanchett and Demi Moore spotted wearing cuff bracelets which are bigger or doubled up.

The chunkier the cuff bracelet the better, with the wooden cuff bracelet with metal studs being a trend for the spring.

Art deco inspired bracelets are fabulous and can be worn to dress up your look. Wearing this jewellery with menswear or distressed pieces will keep you looking stylish and dynamic. If you are to wear sparkly crystal bracelets you can wear other toned down bracelets to make the crystals stand out.

Ethnic style bracelets look great this summer corpulent beads on elastic or memory wire can easily and affordably get you the right summer look bang on trend.

Summer is all about colour, don’t be afraid to go bold and bright on colours to change or update your look, make a statement by wearing, pink yellow red blue and turquoise which is trendy and fresh for the summer

Statement bracelets big and bejewelled with flowers and gemstones are trendy for day or night making a statement with confidence for the stylish vibe.

Bangles come in various widths; this summer thin wired bangles will be great for that minimal elegant look and thick bangles for the statement look. In the winter brings heavier and much thicker bracelets in coloured enamels and attention-grabbing gold.

Finally, don’t be afraid of experiment to creating your own style when mixing and matching your bracelets for your own individual unique look that will leave you looking the part.

This week in magazines I have been seeing costume jewelry, which are bang on trend for spring this season.

Look Magazine Fashion Trend of The Week 12 April 2010 calls it ‘Petal Power saying that your floral style should include your costume jewelry.

Look are also raving about Kitsch prints such as lips, hearts ice cream cones, bows, apples and strawberries. I am also loving the quirky shapes that are in fashion now. You can find costume necklaces of costume bracelets with lips, hearts, bows and other shapes to get bang on trend. Pastels and bright colours, especially when they clash give you the contrast that is now in fashion.

Techno prints are also in fashion so go for costume jewellery with an ethnic style combined with bold, bright colors.

Chunky chains – Gold chains are now totally chic, once a bit of a fashion no no! Where a chunky one, high on the neck, like Courtney Cox and Rachel Zoe.

Weighty bracelets are also seen as chic now too.
