I can't wear bangles. They slide right off my small wrists. :(
Did you deliberately post this on a Manic Monday?
Hey Lisa . . . I hear this from a lot of my petite readers; try a bangle with a clasp rather than a slip-on, as they have more sizing options. Alternatively, push the bangle up to your elbow, a la Olsen/Moss/etc. - so chic!
Wendy - So funny! It hadn't even occured to me that it was indeed a a Manic Monday. Clever girl!
Keep up the amazing comments, darlings!
xoxox,
CC
The Matthew Williamson one is so beautiful! And the Hermes, of course.
xo hope you had a FAB weekend CC!

I love bangles, I have a ton of them, though I should probably stop buying them because at this point I rarely get to wear them (my job doesn't allow jewelry such as). :( But they are beautiful! :)

i love the hermes look, and Missoni, but bangles drive me crazy, usually take them off after an hour into work..
LOVE LOVE LOVE bangles! I wear one EVERYDAY... actually it NEVER comes off... Tiffany of course!
I also LOVE to add more when going out and about or just wanting to feel FANCY at home while painting!
FUN FUN FUN post!!!!
J'adore!
Fifi
gracias me alegro de que mi blog te guste!

I have big hair so I feel like earing are lost on me. So, I compensate with bracelets and necklaces. You found some really lovely bangles.
Now, would you be so kind as to find an assortment of amazing charm bracelets. No, don't do it. My collection could go all the way up to my shoulders. I don't need anymore.;-)
I love those Day Birger Et Mikkelsen silver bangles.
Have a nice week!
Wish I had more bangles they look so fun!
mm, i love thing bangles like at Iosselliani! i still have the first ever set of bangles i bought, haha :)

;)
I adore those silver bangles, all of them! xo
great post..even though i love it...i do not wear it much as it's always slipping cause my wrists are too little (i will about your advice!)
I love bangles, but I'm always taking them of when I'm working, because they don't allow me to type or to be comfortable and sometimes I forget them at the office on my desk lol.
Thank you for all the work you had for show us those wonders.
xoxo
In that first picture is she laying on a fountain? A chair? A very decorative toilet?
Whatever it is I love it!
I love bangles *.* specially big and in gold, black or blue!
xx
Bangles! i have quite a big collection of it already, even though i can only wear those smaller one. but i will keep trying them out :)
Oh BLUE BANGLES!!!!!! I'm such a geek but i can't help it! They take me right into the "Brick mood"

(If you have not seem this movie, I've written a little about it on my last post....)
Bangles are not so easy for me because of my small wrists but I have a collection of indian silver stoned bangles that is to die for. I love to wear them with light weight maxi skirts for that hippieish look.
Have a great week! :D
Wow! Next to Shoes, Bangles rock!
I luv them all.
Wonderful pics (as always!) I love bangles, I wish I could have more than I have, never is enough
These bangles are so beautiful but alas, my puny little wrists can't handle them :( I just have to admire them on other wrists.
Hey, nice collection of bangles. Unfortunately, guys normally don't have that many choices. :(
JW
Need to google Manic Monday.. what is that? :)
Love bangles.. I bought too many this season ( as shown in the latest dressing songy)
Jil Sander bracelet/clutch in ONE is my fav! CC... I have a strong feeling you won't b leaving this country dear... we'' find out tmwr won't we... ;)
Ha, loved the start! I don't walk like an egyptian. I love bangles they are so glam
C.
bangles are so hot! i got plenty of flashy onesmaking my days brighter, lol!
Sigh, I feel like owning everything!
Those blue ones are very elegant and the red ones, I agree, are fiercely and bold! If you get some, take a picture and post it!
Best wishes!
Tom
Oh my god, these images are gorgeous!! And I must be in bangle heaven... so, I decided it's imopossible to narrow a favorite!! But the insanely beautiful color of the Roberto Cavalli resin bangle is chanting my name!
Las pulseras esmaltadas de Hermès, combinadas con finas de cuero son mis preferidas.

Fab post!!! I'm all for stacking and piling on the bangles!!
I do like bangles, and have a few of them... but always forget about them!!!
AHHH THE LOVE OF MY LIFE. i LOVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVE bangles Carrie!! so i crown this my fave post of all from your blog!
I layer them on randomly depending on my mood. My bangles and wrist wear as i like to call them tell a story and are very personable to me. Can you believe i remember where I bought or how I got each? There were times when i'd wear the same ones ie an eclectic mix day after day for years. That Coach one is yummy. I have been eyeing up the YSL gold coin cuff for some time now!!
kisses dear Carrie,
Marian
Bangles, and bracelets of any kind really, are my weakness - nice finds!
i love heavy bangles!!
I love chunky bangles ... :)
