Bracelets have seen a surge in popularity recently. Not that this form of jewelry ever really went out of style, but we are seeing more and more celebs and non-celebs pay more attention to bracelets. No longer the lone item on a wrist, they are being enjoyed and stacked like never before.

Modern Jeweler has a wonderful article on this new trend in jewelry accessorizes, Arm Candy:

With fashion's focus moving to the wrist, there is a growing interest in bracelets. In fact, all widths of bracelets, from wonder woman cuffs to the slimmest of bangles (and the new medium width between the two), are winning converts.

As with pendants and necklaces, layering is key. The newest way to wear bracelets is to mix and match different widths on the same wrist, whether you choose delicate Deco diamonds or chunky gold bangles. The strongest trend at the Oscars this year was an armful of stylish bracelets.

Very true, and I actually reported this same thing back then as well, lots of bare necks but lots of bangles and bracelets.
