Charm bracelets have recurrently disappeared and reappeared in the trends of the past few decades, but today the fashion industry has revamped the look and rekindled the attraction of these metal links.
Production of charm bracelets has soared over the years as a trend that suits each unique personality. Countless companies have followed suit in attempts to enter the charm bracelet race, with one company offering a different variety than the last.
Even the luxury retailer, Tiffany and Co., created a line that would bring the infamous little blue boxes to the masses. Elsa Peretti’s reasonably priced “Return to Tiffany’s” charms have driven sales, representing 25 percent of Tiffany’s total sales, according to CNN.
Charm bracelets are a big trend for spring and, in the meantime, the perfect way to spice up a mundane winter wardrobe. With a variety of styles and a range of prices, charm bracelets are the perfect gift for any woman — especially with Valentine’s Day looming around the corner.
Gucci, J. Crew and Juicy Couture are just a few of the brands featuring the trinket bracelets. For those who wish to adorn their wrists in luxury, Gucci’s charm bracelet watch in silver or gold makes for the perfect piece to add to any jewelry collection.
J. Crew recently introduced its spring line, which included a gold charm bracelet with small elephants dangling from dainty roped gold links. The company expanded its jewelry line, and its economical prices bring quality and extravagance to the mass market.
Juicy Couture is often thought of foremost when it comes to charm bracelets. Juicy is probably known to most for its signature chunky gold link toggle bracelets with a small hanging heart engraved with the brand name. Sold individually in plush crimson boxes are charms of every sort. From seasonal charms to hobby charms, Juicy Couture produces nearly every charm imaginable.
The brand is showcased in several cases in Nordstrom at Streets of Southpoint.
“They sell really well here,” said Natalie Mayshak, retail associate in the Nordstrom jewelry section. “They’re a great way to express yourself — from the zodiac signs to the bags and shoes, there is a charm for everyone.”
With endless brands and possibilities, charm bracelets make the perfect gift that will last a lifetime.
Shoppers truly get the best of both worlds — being stylish and practical — when classic pieces become an “it” item. What more could a girl ask for?
