Fashion Bracelet Trends in 2011

Twenty-ten begins a new decade, and fashion promises to bring us new things to look at and wear, including some interesting trends in fashion bracelets. For those with more conservative tastes or reserved settings, such as business attire, there will be a number of fine fashion bracelet choices as well. Tano Jewelry offers the newest trends in Fashion Jewelry & Headbands.

Among the most time-honored traditions in fashion bracelets is that of precious and elegant metals. These typically appear in gold and silver with platinum being a more recent addition to the collection. These materials will not go away and for the elegant and reserved, the fantastic accentuating fashion bracelets will continue to be available. A subtle bracelet with matching earrings and a simple pendant can work wonderfully.

Stepping out and presenting itself a bit more is the metal and stone combination. This is another classic design that is not going away in 2010. These range from precious stones such as diamonds to gem stones and then some beautiful everyday stones. Among the trends for 2010 are handmade fashion bracelets that often take advantage of the more unique and marvelous appearances of stones such as topaz, among others.
This brings us to some of the swings of fashion that may prove to be more singular for 2010. Handmade is on the calendar. While so many things are made on assembly lines by robots, fashion has decided to step away and inject our lives with something straight from another person. It is not unheard of in other areas of fashion.

Everything from hats to shoes that are made by hand can be found, but a fashion bracelet is a bit different. Some of the handmade designs will, in fact, be one of a kind. When incorporating natural pieces like stone and other elements the singularity that these beauties create is nearly unavoidable without a great deal of refining. So be prepared to be different in a very popular way this year with handmade fashion bracelets.

There is another new trend in fashion bracelets in 2010: Lucite. There, it is said. Lucite is a clear material that can be shaped into seamless bracelets. The bracelets can be decorated and colored with a clearly tasty result. You will likely be able to find a number of different bracelets by a number of different designers crafted from this material. However, depending on the combination of designer and design, the bracelet may be expensive. You can, also, look for Bakelite which is a different material, but you may find these bracelets less expensive and quite similar in appearance. If it is the look that you want, you might look into a number of other materials, as well. Many people never make mention or ask about the material their bracelet was crafted from anyway.

Another trend in 2010 is that designers are sharing design inspirations. The result is that you will see multiples of similar concepts. Designers, generally, do not directly copy the design of another designer, but what you may see is a greater than usual influence in bracelet design. This is already happening in the proliferation of animal shaped bracelets and bejeweled bracelets. What this may mean for bracelet buyers is that you will be more likely to find a variation of a bracelet design that is nearly exactly what you want. It may, also, mean that some variation of a particular design you have had your eye on will be accessible to you in twenty-ten.

Expect to find flair as well. Some of the most interesting designers of 2010 are working with almost retro style (though more indigenous) geometric shapes and bright colors. Some bracelets at the edge of flair may require a fitting match of earrings, necklace and even clothes. Other more refined flair may actually be suitable with many more moderate outfits and may simply add a touch of fun to your appearance.

In 2010 there will likely be something suitable for everyone’s wrist. It might even be an excellent year to try making your own handmade bracelets. There are a number of kits available that would work great for a party idea. By looking at a number of pictures of your favorite designs, you and your friends could create your own professionally inspired bracelets. You could always give out already made fashion bracelets as party gifts so that no one would go home disappointed. Whatever you do in 2010 remember that fashion is about style which is more than the look of your clothes and accessories on the hook; fashion is about you.
