1. A Charming Bracelet
Charm bracelets are nothing new, but they certainly never go out of style.
Each season we watch as designers, celebrities and collectors show off the
latest and greatest in fashionable charm memorabilia.
The charm bracelet itself was originally brought to
popularity in Europe by her Royal Highness
Queen Elizabeth, and gained fascination in the
U.S. when World War II soldiers returned with
trinkets for loved ones.
Reminiscent of that same
nostalgia, teenagers
began collecting charms to
celebrate special events and interests in their life.
Charm bracelets continue to be a popular fashion trend
with both adults and children alike.
One of the purposes behind the charm bracelet is to
show others your favorite pastime or hobby. For
example, a ballerina might have a pair of ballet slippers,
a music note and a tutu on her charm bracelet. A dog
lover might have a locket with their pet’s photo, a dog
bone and their pet’s initial. A charm bracelet is a great
way to play into someone’s niche interest and provide
them with a trinket to add to their collection.
Charm bracelets can also commemorate certain life
events that are of utmost importance. A bracelet might
include a trophy, a car and a diploma to symbolize the
2. progress a teenager has made in school. Charms may be worn on the bracelet
or collected and displayed as part of the memories they represent.
The nice thing about charms is that each one is different.
Even if the bracelet is made of sterling silver, it’s okay to mix
in gold plated or colored charms for added interest and
appeal. The charms should be a reflection of the owner’s
personality, their goals and their lifestyle.
Recently, upscale design houses are showcasing branded
charm bracelets and trinkets. It’s certainly nice to know that
whatever your budget, there’s a charm bracelet for you. Every
woman can find a satisfying bracelet in any jewelry shop,
because jewelry is the best friends for women.
