I am not usually one to follow a huge trend. However, with the headquarters of the company (Alex and Ani) 30 minutes away from my college it seemed to be unavoidable. It became a huge craze at school and everyone on campus was sharing the meaning of all their bracelets with friends. Those of you who have never heard of the company they create eco-friendly jewelry and each piece that is made represents positive energy. The most popular products they design are their single charmed bracelets-- each one represents something different, but as a whole, they identify who you are as a person. They are to be worn on your less dominant hand and in an odd number. Their products are meant to really show who an individual is and what they represent. They are made of all recyclable materials and the creator encourages you to wear several at a time. It seems as if they are bringing the cluttered wrist back into style--suggesting that you wear gold and silver together with splashes of color as well. This is something that isn't usually recommended. Most people are hesitant to mix silver and gold, but that is the look they are going for.
I spent about an hour yesterday looking at all the different ones I could purchase. Being as indecisive as I am, the woman who worked there helped me out a great deal. I couldn't seem to narrow it down to just three (I had to have some sort of control) because there are endless possibilities. Trying to calm my shopaholic self down was quite difficult, but I realized they are a great gift to give and to receive... beautiful and powerful at the same time!
