Hand bracelets

A little while ago, this absolutely stunning hand bracelet created by Alyssa Norton was featured in Vogue, and now I can't stop thinking about it. I also cannot afford it.


So, as always, I looked for a more bargain priced work-around. Hand bracelets, a.k.a. slave bracelets, aren't so uncommon in other cultures and I was hoping that I could find something almost as pretty to wear to some holiday soirees on some 'ethnic' jewelry websites. If you want to search for some of these yourself, try hitting eastern Indian jewelry stores, your local bellydance suppliers or goth jewelry outlet.

I love the name of this web store, Shimmyshimmy.com, makes me giggle.

A more subtle version compared to other hand bracelets I was looking at...


This would go great with your new holiday tattoo.
