Accessories collection part 2 - bracelets

Bracelets are my favorite accessories and they occupy major share in my collection. Can't exactly remember when and how my obsession with them started. But, ever since I watched Monte Carlo, I longed for a charm bracelet similar to the one Leighton Meister wears in the movie 😆. Not only did I got one, I also managed to fill it with charms from every country I visited 😎.

Getting to the list of bracelets I own:

White stone bracelet from stone 'N' string:


Got this along with the necklace mentioned in my previous post. Also the oldest in my collection, I preserved it with utmost care which is very unusual for me. I only use it for special occasions and mostly pair it with the necklace.

Ayesha bracelets in yellow and blue stones:

One of the recurring resolution, I follow to constraint my shopping, is to only buy things I wanted to buy when I start from home. During one of those phases, I came across this blue stone bracelet in Ayesha store in forum mall and immediately fell for it. True to my resolution, I resisted the urge of making it mine on the spot and returned home. However, I couldn't stop thinking about it and rushed to the store next time I went to forum. To my utter disappointment, it was out of stock. I started checking every Ayesha store with no luck. Finally, admitting defeat when I couldn't find it in Phoenix market City too, I settled for yellow stone one. Then, when I least expected it, I found my blue stone beauty in a store and it was on sale😍😍!! I immediately bought it along with matching earrings. Good things do come to those who wait 😋.

Grey stone bracelet from Accessorize and red flower one from Westside:

I immediately liked the elegance of the grey stone bracelet in Accessorize and felt it would be ideal for formal attire. It was a bit expensive but there was 50% off and I had to get it.


The red flower one, I only bought it because of the color. I mostly had accessories in blue and don't have any to match bright colors. It didn't cost much either. For a casual buy, I wear it more frequently than I thought I would.

Bohemian style and white beads bracelets from Phoenix market City:

When one of my closest friends returned to India, we had only couple of months before I traveled on my assignment. We used to plan outings almost every weekend to make the best of the time we had together. During one such weekends, we went to Phoenix market City. The Bohemian style bracelet, I bought from reliance trends I believe, immediately caught my attention​. The two types of leaves are beautifully arranged and for 200rs it was a steal 😎.

Later we went to Chumbak store (I wasn't​ so drawn to this store but my sister loves it and always checks it whenever we come across one). Both my friend and I wanted to get this white beads bracelet. We were about to start the classic 'u take it, no u take it' situation when the guy at the counter indicated more in the basket. That's how we became bracelet buddies 😆. It costed​ Rs 400 which felt bit high at that time maybe because I got another for half that price, however, this is my most worn bracelet.

Haematite bracelet from Warren James and white stone swirl chain bracelet from West field:

While getting the blue heart Swarovski Crystal pendant from Warren James, I saw the black haematite bracelet. I used to have a similar bracelet which I lost. I also lost another black bracelet only few days before leaving me with no black bracelet 😪. Also there was a huge price reduction and I got it for 4£🙂. How could I not get it.



The swirl chain one was bought when a bunch of us visited West field mall in Shepherd's ​Bush. By then I got good enough number of bracelets, however couldn't resist. There were two pieces and another close friend of mine bought the other one. I got another bracelet buddy😁. We paid 4£ for both - must be cheapest available product in the mall.

Multi chain bracelet from Barcelona:


Bought this one when I was taking a stroll in a busy shopping street in Barcelona. I didn't get to do that a lot as I visited Spain with a tour group which is also why I couldn't remember the location name 🙄. Anyway, I went in this store making some customized gifts to get one for a friend of mine when I saw this cutie. Although I already bought a black bracelet, this is different and I don't have any broader bracelets.

Murano glass bracelets​ from Venice:

While walking on the colorful streets of Venice, we entered a small fancy store. My sister picked quite a few souvenirs for her friends and herself while I contemplated on what to get. I couldn't find a charm for my beloved travel bracelet yet and my sister pointed out to this beautiful colorful Murano glass charm bracelet. Along with 6 magnets and a Murano glass pendent & earrings set, the bill came around 9€.

After reaching the train station, with some time to spare, I went into one of the curios stores. I was quite sad that I spent so little time in the city I longed to visit and wanted another​ reminder of the time spent with my most favorite place. Picked this bracelet made of transparent glass with black and orange thread detailing. With matching earrings, it came around 18-19€.

CD bracelet from Heathrow airport:

I got this as a freebie when I bought the perfume from Heathrow duty free store. They were out of perfume samples and when offered a bracelet instead, I was delighted. However, on opening the package, I was disappointed. I have no idea how to wear this bracelet. Moreover, I don't really like brand names on my shirts and accessories😟.

Steel chain bracelet from Claires:

On coming back home, after struggling a while to adjust to time shift, climate changes etc., I figured one of the best ways​ to acclimatize is shopping 😌 and headed to my favorite Phoenix Mall. I always wanted a masculine bracelet but never get around it. When I found this one for Rs 200, I got it without hesitation. However, I only worn it a couple of times.

Beloved charm bracelet from all over the world:


My most priced possession mentioned in the introduction. It is also the most expensive one I own. I got the chain as gift from a friend (I actually asked for it 😜). As the post turned out to be long, I will write another one with story behind each charm. This baby deserves​ a dedicated post 😀.
