Lux Staples: Our Picks for Summer Bangles

Filed under: Jewelry


Clingy or tight jewelry can get uncomfortable in the hot summer months when sweating and feeling sticky is a daily occurrence, but it's also the time of year when accessories can look their best shining in the sun against tan skin. That's what makes bangle bracelets so perfect! They come in every size, shape, and color, and although they work any time of year I particularly love them come summer. Their loose-fitting style can go casual or glam, and they always look awesome with the season's breezy fabrics and beachy dresses. See some of our favorites in the gallery below and feel free to share yours in the comments!

Vivianna Torun Bangle Watches

Filed under: Timepieces


Designed by Vivianna Torun for Georg Jensen these bangle watches are sleek, elegant, and classic. Intended to "free people from the slavery of time," Vivianna Torun made these watches extremely simple -- featuring a plain face with no numbers and simple hands. In addition the open bangle design symbolizes that "time should not bind us" while the mirrored face serves as a reminder that "life is now."

Very dramatic sentiment but it works in this case as the watches themselves are certainly dramatic. Available in gold, silver, and black stainless steel, the simplest designs sell for $2,200 while the limited edition version (that includes 173ct of pavé diamonds) is priced at $28,500.

Francesca Romana Diana is an Italian jewelry designer, who after opening her flagship store in Rio De Janeiro, quickly gained international recognition for her playful and bold large scale pieces. Her designs can be seen in boutiques from Paris to Palm Beach. Her colorful Canapa Chic Bangles were recently shown in InStyle magazine, they feature semi precious stones and gold accents atop meticulously woven raffia. Available in lime, red, turquoise and beige. I adore the beige one! They retail for $219 and are available on Ravinstyle.com.
