Bracelets are my favorite too - but bangles are not. They are either too hard to get on (I love my jade bangles but it is an effort to get them off and on) or they bang into things, and worst of all - when I’m working on my laptop they are always pressing into my wrist.
All my JP bracelets are open like this one and easy to get into. My favorite thing about them though is the inscriptions [emoji173]️
These aren’t great photos but I hope they help!
second wear of Bal Bazar M today
i have left 3 more black bags and one evening clutch to wear till the end of the month, looks like mission will be accomplished successfully!
Which H scarf is this? I love the red hem!
I love this! I hadn’t heard of this brand, so must check it out. I can see how, although the cuff is wide, it doesn’t have the bulk of the Bone cuff. The inscription gives it some delicacy and I like the way yours is getting patina.
And .. I just googled her and found she closed up shop in 2014. Argh.
Thank you!
Unfortunately, Jeanine Payer isn't making jewelry any longer. I think she stopped when the pressures of family and a successful business got to be too much. You can still find pieces on ebay though! I love mine - each inscription means something to me.
This bracelet has an Apache blessing and because I have an unpleasant medical procedure this afternoon, its giving me some good and positive vibes.
Thank you!

Good luck with the medical procedure!
thanks!
I'm sorry if I misled you on the jewelry
I only meant that I have a wide bracelet that doesn't bother me so I can't figure out why the Bone cuff doesn't work for me.@ksuromax is probably correct in that it's a proportion issue.
thanks!

Oh, you didn’t mislead me at all! I asked for a photo, and you provided one. It’s a beautiful piece!
And BTW, it’s part of my MO to “discover” things after they’re no longer available!
Best of luck with the medical procedure.Thank you!

Oooh! This is totally gorgeous!
I’m not big on bracelets. Mainly because the ones I think are gorgeous - cuffs and bangles - are the ones it’s tough to wear. Like you mentioned, they bang on my desk and keyboard. The other thing I don’t like is that because of this, they scuff and have to be polished every time I turn around.
I know #spoiledgirlproblems. Lol!
OMG! This is so me!!! This is half the reason most of my bags are preloved. I don’t follow instagrammers or bloggers, I hate to shop and I don’t have one friend who gives a hoot about her wardrobe much past it being clean and neat. Lol! So, when I started getting serious about buying nice bags (and other things) I always found things I loved because someone in TPF shared it. But, it could have been a decade old and long since discontinued. Lol!And BTW, it’s part of my MO to “discover” things after they’re no longer available!
I’ve gotten better as I’ve started looking at fashion sites, etc. but I’m still always feeling a half step behind. Lol!
What a killer gorgeous pattern!
Congrats to all of you who are doing well with this month’s challenges. I, however, am going down in flames. 
We’re in the midst of a big home project
(so smart right before the holidays right?)
And, I’m still making up work from time lost with my surgeries. So, I’ve had probably the least rotation in a month that I’ve ever had.
But!!! December is my bday month and holiday / party month so I’ll have much more opportunity to wear my glittery fun bags.
Speaking of my bday. Mr. Sparkle has asked me repeatedly what I want. The only thing I can think of is jewelry (?). There isn’t a bag I have my eye on right now. I’m curious, though. What bag is on your holiday wish list?

Ostritch Bays but that's on my all-year-round wishlist.
I like the feeling of wishing. I've resisted buying it once and hope I can do a second time if I see it again.
Here is a dilemma I have been wearing the Carolina Herrera bag for days and it is light weight and practical yet I don’t love it. I am tempted to drop it off at the consignment shop. What would you do?
