Charmed, I'm Sure: Charm Bracelets

It is said that the wearing of charm bracelets date back to prehistoric times, and was used to ward away evil spirits. The charms may also signify the individual's identification to the gods in the afterlife. In modern times charm bracelets have become an accessory to complete a wardrobe, though some still wear them for good luck; wishing for good fortune in the form of health, money and fame.  Gems, stones, wood or metal charms are incorporated into overall design of the bracelet. 

For this post, we focus on our single rhodium chain charm bracelets from the Awit ng Ibong Adarna Collection. Using the technique we recently discovered, we used the beaded flower as the main charm of the bracelet and added crystals around the chain.

Here are some ways you can wear them two at a time.


1) Wear it on a casual day with your favorite sheer loose polo, paired with tight jeans and ballet flats. Wear two of our Awit ng Ibong Adarna single rhodium chain charm bracelets together in one wrist. 

2) Wear it to the office. A simple, clean-cut pleated dress with a classic, yet contemporary cover up coupled with pumps, suggests an aura of female power dressing. Wearing slacks isn't the only way to show how serious you are at work. Add a touch of femininity to your outfit with two dainty charm bracelets.

3) Wear it on a date night, or on a special occasion. Show some skin without overdoing it. Keep a veil of mystery, by wearing a long pleated flowing skirt. Break the bareness of your wrist by wearing charm bracelets.  Hear the chains and beads jangle as you dance your way to the night. 

Whatever the reason maybe, charm bracelets will never loose its "charm".

Improvised Chain Accessory

Chains have their own appeal. They give an impression of cosmopolitan living and modernity. On casual days, I love wearing layered chain necklaces or wrap around chain bracelets in rhodium or antique brass. 

In a bazaar we participated in last year, a buyer complimented the chain necklace I was wearing without knowing that it was actually a one yard long antique brass which I fashioned into a necklace with no lobster lock to close at the neckline. I showed her the long chain and she persuaded me to sell the improvised necklace to her.

If you are a chain fanatic, I’m sure you’ll enjoy this.

Must Have: One (1) yard chain in any size and color

Practical Tip: Instead of buying separate layered chain necklaces or bracelets, use a one yard chain which you can wrap around your neck or wrist. Feel free to adjust the length. You can go as far as wrapping the chain on your wrist to transform it into a bracelet or ring bracelet. Using the same chain, you can improvise it into an anklet. You can also layer different sized chains all together. It just takes a bit of imagination.- PJV
