Bracelet stacking is a celebrity-approved trend that’s easy to emulate. Gone are the days of Avril Lavigne’s studded and spiked forearm-length stacks that looked too heavy to lift – the Y2K fashion revival has brought us a more elegant take on stacking bracelets. Olsens, Jenners and Kardashians are just a few of the celeb icons seen out and about with an assemblage of gold and silver bracelets jingling on their wrists.
Abbot Lyon’s bracelet collection has everything you need to put together an effortlessly stylish, Instagram-worthy bracelet stack.
Tips for fashion-forward bracelet stacking
Play with proportion
When creating the perfect stack, it’s important to use a variety of bracelets with different textures and thicknesses, which will complement and contrast with each other. Mix and match a variety of proportions for a glamorous result.
By the numbers
Stack your bracelets together in odd numbers – either three, five, or seven – to create balance. Most fashion experts recommend not stacking more than seven bracelets in total.
Metals and colours
When it comes to colour, it’s a matter of personal choice – you can choose your favourite metal and stick to it to keep your look cohesive, or mix a variety of gold and silver for a more eclectic look. You can also add a dash of something brighter by including a colourful beaded bracelet.
Create something unique
Stacking your bracelets gives you an opportunity to express yourself and show off your personal style by creating a special combination that’s all “you”. Mix and match your favourite pieces until you have a stack you want to wear everywhere.
