Current Styles — Arm Candy
Seen in the windows of Soho vintage shops, cloth covered bangles from Karina Matias for only $8 each. They’er not terribly expensive but they’re terribly cool!
Senhor do Bonfim, “Bon Fim” means “Good Ending”. It refers to the colorful ribbons from the state Bahia in the North of Brazil. Locals believe that the ribbons attract good luck and ward off misfortune. Brazilian people believe that Senhor do Bonfim cures diseases and fulfills desires. Great original look for summer! Try on multiple bangles!
“They’re an amazing combination of colors, style, and sophistication. You can see them more and more in the USA.” Karina said. “The same piece can be worn by women with completely different fashion styles. It only depends how you wear it. It’s all about the statement you want to make.”
