Slap the Cuffs On


Lee Angel enamel bangles & cuffs @ Neiman Marcus

So...I've been trying to figure out some ways to subversively add some Spring-like life to my relatively sedate winter wardrobe. Spring hasn't really (or remotely) sprung here...snow is still in the forecast for the foreseeable future. As a result, I can't quite carry out the full-on Spring fantasy of floaty frocks and strappy sandals...yet. The answer? Infuse your wardrobe with kicks of colour from some beautiful accessories! There are tons of great, colourful pieces out there this season - from headbands to purses to faaabulous shoes. But these enamel bracelets are what caught my eye today. They add a subtle yet distinct accent to an outfit that's transitioning from Winter to the warmer weather. Enjoy!
