One Twisted Silver Tapestry Bracelet, 4 Different Looks

Twisted Silver Tapestry Bracelet

This month’s Twisted Insider piece is the Tapestry necklace ($100) and bracelet ($50). I immediately wore the choker necklace as a bracelet wrapped around a cardigan the first day I received the jewelry. It added a cool vintage feel to my outfit.

My friend Tina at Twisted Silver says she hasn’t taken her bracelet for a week now, and likes it layered with the Classic XO bracelet. So I tried stacking with the piece with different jewelry from my closet. First, I wore the bracelet and necklace together (I think this is my favorite look).  Then I showed just the necklace worn as a bracelet, then the necklace with a $5 cuff I bought at Aldo and finally, the bracelet with two lia sophia stretchy jeweled bracelets.

How would you wear these Tapestry pieces? Think about it because they launch tomorrow on Twisted Silver’s website and later this week I’ll be giving a Tapestry bracelet away!

Keep reading to see how the Twisted Silver models wear the pieces for inspiration.

Inspired by… Princess Diana:

One Double Strand of Pearls, Michelle Obama’s 6 Looks

Everyone always talks about Michelle Obama being this generation’s Jackie O. Yes, JFK’s wife wore multi-strand pearl necklaces but when I see Mrs. O using her double strand of pearls to create different looks I think of Princess Diana. The royal beauty had just about every type of pearl necklace imaginable and wore them all around the world: a choker in Australia, jeweled in the United States, a classic single strand in Canada, twisted in Italy, gray in Japan and all of the above in England.  After her scandalous divorce, the Princess of Wales stopped dressing matchy-matchy and displayed a fashion confidence very similar to Michelle Obama’s. Like our first lady, Lady Di also showed she had the “right to bare arms.” Above, you can see her wearing an oversized pearl necklace with a sleeveless sheath. Sound familiar?
