Cartier is known for its timeless designs, present in the fashion world for decades. The Love collection has been successful for over 40 years and the Panthere collection for a century. The only thing that’s changed is the way the iconic pieces are styled. Keep reading to find four new ways to wear your favorite pieces.
1. Stacking Bracelets
This trend is one of the most fun and creative ways to wear your favorite pieces. If you own a Love bracelet, this style got even easier. The Cartier icon is perfect for adding a simple layer to your favorite stack. This piece is so versatile, it compliments nearly any other piece it’s paired with — watches and bracelets alike.
Since it’s spring, we like the colorful pop of color with a sunny and golden Love bracelet. The Love bracelet is quite the staple and once you own it, it’s easy to mix and match your accessories at any price point. Try a stack with different textures, like a leather Hermes bracelet. Since the love bracelet is so simple in design, you can also choose bracelets with a more decorative design.
2. Multiples
Thanks to certain celebrities, the Love bracelet has reached a height of fame never seen before. It’s even been recently announced as the most often searched jewelry item. In the past, many celebrities merely wore the item as a symbol of their commitment to a significant other. Now younger, fashion-forward celebs have made the piece a high-fashion accessory must-have.
Though not everyone has multiple Love bracelets and rings, this look is simple for those who do. Before, you might have opted to wear only one at once, now try wearing them stacked on top of each other. If you only have one Love bracelet or ring, then it’s still possible to achieve a similar look by finding another simple and similarly sized bangle bracelet or band ring.
3. The Statement Piece
The past few years have seen the rise of the statement piece. From necklaces to earrings, there’s always a need for the biggest, boldest accessory to finish your look. Cartier has a long history of creating elaborate gem-set pieces, making the jeweler the perfect choice for an updated look.
Any bold bracelet, necklace or ring will do. Cartier’s Trinity collection boasts large, pendant necklaces perfect for this look. We even saw a dupe of the above-pictured necklace featured at Givenchy’s Spring 2016 RTW runway show. This season, go oversized and bright to make your statement.
4. Elegant Staples
Finally, Cartier does elegance like no other. Some things never go out of style and that includes classic accessories. For a formal event or occassion where you would like to present your most sophisticated self, then go for a simple timepiece from Cartier with minimal accessories.
Today, fast fashion is favoring large and oversized watches, but for a true show of class without exaggeration or gaudiness, a small and refined Cartier watch is the perfect choice. The Tank has been seen on the wrist of first ladies like Michelle Obama and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. The Ballon Bleu can be spotted on the wrists of royalty like Kate, Duchess of Cambridge. We are partial to the vintage elegance of the tonneau-shaped watch like the above-pictured timepiece.
