Pink Cuff Costume Bracelets

The bracelet cuff is a bold fashion accessory dating back thousands of years to ancient Egyptian, Mayan and Greek fashions. In early Mayan culture, the bracelet cuff was indicative of class and family rank. The ancient Greeks wore l eather cuffs on their upper arms for decoration, which translated to use by Greek and Roman soldiers for protective purposes.
Plastic options became hot fashion accessories during the 1930s and wide band varieties during the 1970s. Coco Chanel and Jackie O were both huge fans, helping the bracelet cuff achieve its iconic fashion status to present day.
Modern day varieties offer a choice of different shades, substances and styles from high street to high end brands and prices.
If you want a more decorative or girly look, there are designs that feature beading, pearls and diamantes set in precious metal or plastic clasps. Alternatively, if you are looking for a more androgynous, simple style, you might want to opt for a leather or acrylic cuff . Add either studs or zips for a more urban, gothic style, or crystals or bows for a touch of classic femininity.
Both thick and chunky, skinny and delicate bands are available, as are a range of distinctive fastenings including press studs, buckles and link clasps. There is an array of pinks to choose from spanning richer coral shades, to baby pinks and transparent tints.
Pyramid stud cuffs are a popular celebrity style choice as worn by Victoria Beckham and Emma Watson. Other fashion favourites include the thin, multi-strand wrap around leather cuffs with diamante studs or chunky Perspex embellished with crystals, rhinestones and gems.
Most cuffs either come in one length or are adjustable to suit your individual wrist size.
