Switching it up a bit today, friends!! Not only am I now sharing outfit inspiration here on the blog, but accessory inspo, too! Some of you may not know that I’m a Stella & Dot Stylist and adore all things shiny and sparkly! I’ve decided to marry my two worlds of home and style and bring it all to you right here! It really does paint a more realistic picture of my reality. My go-to look for accessorizing right now is layering and stacking my bracelets to create fun and unique looks. In other words, I’m throwing myself “an arm party”! So, grab your favorite pieces and read on to see some Bracelet Layering Inspiration!

Arm Party?!
What in the world is THAT?!
It’s when you stack your delicates, textured, chunky, colorful and mixed metal pieces on your wrist in various combinations to create unique looks. My arms are always partying, but for those of you that aren’t quite sure how to do it or just want a few ideas, then this post is for you! I’ve rounded up 9 of my recent “arm party” looks to give you some ideas and inspo!

You probably noticed I almost always wear my gold spike bracelet or my mixed metal one, which are both part of Stella & Dot’s Renegade collection. They are the perfect layering piece to add texture and shine and just the right amount of edge! The renegade bracelet comes in gold, silver and mixed metal and we also have earrings in the collection which is another favorite of mine!
The other staple in my bracelet collection is the Gold Essential Bangle. Its a very simple and classic bracelet and goes with absolutely everything. It also comes in silver which is equally simple and chic!
Another favorite layering piece is the tortoise bangle you saw in look #5. It is substantial, yet lightweight and I always get compliments when I wear it. And bonus, its on sale right now!!
And if you are looking for a dainty bracelet to use as a filler or wear alone, I highly, highly recommend the 3 Strand Mixed Metal and the Rose Gold Pave Bar + Hematite Beaded [seen in look #9], which also happens to be the Breast Cancer Tribute bracelet this month. Stella & Dot will donate 20% of all net proceeds to the Bright Pink Foundation through October 31st so grab yours now if you haven’t already! It is such a stunning piece. Pictures do NOT do it justice!
The 3 Strand Mixed Metal bracelet was our Breast Cancer bracelet in October of 2017. Both are beautiful and will work with all of your current bracelets!
So what do I do now?
The one thing I want you to take away from this post is don’t be afraid to mix and match!
Mix your silver with your gold. Mix your chunky bangles and wrap bracelets with your dainty and delicates. They can all work together! Try experimenting with some of your old bracelets, take inventory of what you might be missing in your collection and then treat yourself to a new piece or two to work into the mix. With the holidays around the corner, you can start your wish list to help out your family and friends.
I obviously love and want to share Stella & Dot pieces with you, but I do wear other jewelry, too, so I’ll try to mix some other brands and designers into my next Bracelet Layering Inspiration round-up! How does that sound?!
And lastly, I would love to have you join me in my VIP Style Group on Facebook, where I share style tips, sales, and outfit and accessory inspiration. Click here to request to join. Each weekend in the group, I host a #weekendarmparty where I encourage everyone to snap a pic of the bracelets on their wrist and share it sometime over the weekend. I draw a name at the beginning of the week and the winner earns a $25 Stella & Dot gift card to shop for new accessories. It’s a ton of fun with lots of inspiring looks all around. I hope to see you there!
