This has been a hot trend for some time now and is often seen on young Hollywood celebrities like Nicole Richie, Miley Cyrus and Ashley Tisdale.

My favorite bracelets to add into the mix right now are from Joey B Collections, one of our local jewelry artists (shown above). Joey just stopped in HIP with her new fall creations that I had to share with you! Many elements and textures are used in her new stretch bracelets including: large jasper stones, aqua marine fillers, turquoise crosses, smoky quartz, dark wood beads, and chunky turquoise stones all accented with sterling silver and Swarovski crystal’s.

Bangles and beaded bracelets make the perfect gifts for friends. Many of the bracelets I wear on a daily basis have been given to me by my own friends and family and hold special meaning to me. It is a HIP gift that you can never go wrong with!

Stop in Hand In Pocket to create your own special set of bangles and bracelets.

See you soon,
