Omiru Poll Results: Charm Bracelets are (Barely) In
January 22nd, 2007
We asked: Are Charm Bracelets In or Out?
You said: We’re divided. While "In" got 46% of the vote, "Out" got almost as much support (37%).
Omiru’s take: We appreciate that Charm Bracelets, much like Cufflinks for men, allow you to express a little bit more about yourself. Tennis fan? Show your sporting spirit with a mini tennis racquet. Oenophile? Reveal your love of wine with a tiny wine bottle charm. That said, they’re seen in some circles as kitschy. Our verdict: this is a jewelry trend that’s more fun than fundamental, so spend accordingly.
Next Question: Our Trendscape: Wide Trouser Jeans sparked a bit of a debate as to whether or not they’re In yet. But what do You think? Tell us, are Wide Trouser Jeans In, or are they Out? Cast your vote on the sidebar!

I don’t know that I’d buy a “ready-made” charm bracelet, but I have been adding charms to my original bracelet for 10 years now. Usually my husband gives me a charm to represent a meaningful event (makes for easy gift shopping for him!)

I always wanted to have a charm bracelet like my Grandmothers. I love wide trouser jeans even though I know that they are not flattering on me. I am a gaucho wearing, wide legged pants kind of woman.
On another note, I just tagged you over on http://www.svmoms.com to take part in that annoying five things post. We could use some style advice over there as well…
