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!

Diamonds complement every fabric, flatter every skin tone, and go with every outfit. Not to mention that the beautiful way they sparkle has the power to bring happiness wherever they go. No wonder they're a girl's best friend! One of the easiest, and most versatile, ways to wear diamonds is in the form of a tennis bracelet. Although everybody has their trendy and of-the-moment favorite bracelets, a beautiful tennis bracelet (or maybe two, one in white gold and one in yellow) will serve you well.

Like a bad hair day, a morning where you either get a bad cup of coffee or (for whatever reason) miss out on your hot caffeine fix altogether can mean the whole rest of your day ends up getting thrown off track. Spending the time to find a great brand of coffee that you love and a well-made coffee machine that brews your cup just how you like it is certainly worth the effort -- starting every day with a great cup of coffee can make all the difference.
