How to Stack Bangles to Make Your Look Suddenly Stunning

One of the jewelry trends for this fall is stacked bangles. Over-the-top is the key. So you might like to stock up on your bangle supply. Now is the time to layer them all the way up the arm if that’s your fancy. Or if you prefer, just wear one big statement bangle because now is also a time of pushing bangle designs to the max. You’ll find versions from sparkle to futurism to the edge of punk. Take your pick or mix them up (different styles in the same materials or colors.) See below to get my ideas on how to stack bangles in 26 interesting ways. You’ll even see how you can make your outfit become suddenly stunning.

  1. Wear bangles that have one color in common.
  2. Mix two bangles of the same style but not necessarily the same color (i.e., two Indian bangles with different colors.)
  3. Stack 2-3 bangles of different widths with similar colors/materials/design.
  4. Layer wood bangles with gold bangles.
  5. Layer gold bangles with brass bangles. It may sound a little odd, but they’re all gold-toned so it works!

  6. Mix different textures of gold or silver bangles.
  7. Take two gold, rose gold or silver bangles and add one sliver of color in between
  8. Layer gold bangles with colored, beaded and Indian bangles in between.
  9. Wear at least six narrow 18-carat gold bangles.  Mix inexpensive and real if you like.  It’s good to go vintage here.
  10. First, take a bangle inlaid with gold. Second, add a narrow gold bangle on each side.  Finish by adding a pair of matching bangles, one on each side (or another narrow and medium gold bangle on each side.)
