How To Stack Bracelets
Bracelets are a great way to add some style and personality to your outfit. Whether you prefer delicate and dainty or bold and chunky, stacking bracelets is a fun and easy way to create a unique look. But with so many different styles and sizes to choose from, it can be hard to know where to start. Here are our top tips on how to stack bracelets.
1. Mix and Match
If you’re a lover of bracelets then why not try mixing and matching your favourite styles of bangles and bracelets together. Try layering different types, sizes and weights of bracelets, such as beaded and chain styles to add dimension and texture to your look. You can also mix and match metals, such as gold and silver, for a contemporary finish.
Mixing and matching bracelet styles is a great way of adding a focal point to your outfit. That being said, you should consider choosing only one statement bracelet so that it doesn't start to look too heavy or excessive on your wrist. Pair statement pieces with delicate bracelets such as dainty chain bracelets for a balanced and well thought out look.
2. Keep it Simple
When creating a bracelet stack, try to keep both of your wrists in mind. You could choose to only stack bracelets on one wrist or on both. However, you should try to avoid creating identical bracelet stacks on both wrists as this can feel a little bit matchy-matchy. Instead choose one wrist that will feature your stacking bracelets and on the other wrist place only one to two pieces of jewellery.
If in doubt, stick to the less is more rule and keep things simple. Stick to wearing only two or three bracelets per wrist to avoid looking cluttered. If you're wearing a statement piece like a chunky bangle, pair it with a few simpler bracelets to balance the look.
3. Experiment With Size and Weight
For a layered bracelet stack that really stands out from the crowd, why not go for bracelets of varying weight and size. From chunky bangles and statement friendship bracelets to delicate chain bracelets and sliders, the choice is endless.
Experimenting with different bracelet sizes can be a really fun way of adding dimension and texture to your stacked look. This can be especially effective when creating a statement evening or bohemian look.
4. Add Colour
Colour is an important factor to consider when stacking bracelets. If you're wearing a colourful outfit, stick to neutral bracelets to avoid clashing such as silver bracelets and gold bracelets. Alternatively, you can use bracelets to add a pop of colour to a neutral outfit.
Wearing gemstone bracelets can be a really effective way of elevating your bracelet stack. Not only will it add a pop of colour and vibrancy to your outfit but they are also ideal for special occasions when you’re looking to bring the glamour.
5. Start Small
If you’re new to bracelet stacking or are simply a fan of the minimalistic aesthetic, keep things simple and only wear minimal jewellery as part of your stack. Less is often more when it comes to stacking bracelets so avoid overloading your wrists with too many pieces, or the overall look may become too heavy looking.
Alternatively you could start by only stacking bracelets in the same metal that don’t feature any gemstone or pendants, such as silver bracelets and gold bracelets. This way you can dip your toe into the world of bracelets stacking without looking back with regret.
6. Be Creative
There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to stacking bracelets, so don't be afraid to get creative. Try combining different styles and materials to create a unique look that reflects your personal style.
How To Stack Bracelets With A Watch
If you're wearing a wristwatch, it can be tempting to skip the bracelets altogether. However, a wristwatch can actually be a great starting point for bracelet stacking. Here’s our top tips on how to layer a watch and bracelets:
- Consider the colour and material of your watch. If your watch is silver or gold, consider stacking bracelets that complement the metal. If your watch is leather, you can stack bracelets with similar textures or colours.
- Mix and match different types of bracelets. Combine thin and thick bracelets, different materials, and various textures. For example, you can mix beaded bracelets with leather or metal watch cuffs.
- Pay attention to proportion. If your watch is bulky, balance it with thinner bracelets. If your watch is delicate, you can add more substantial bracelets for contrast.
- Don't be afraid to experiment! Stacking bracelets is all about expressing your personal style, so have fun and try out different combinations until you find a look that you love.

Reflect Your Style
Your bracelets should reflect your unique sense of style. So go ahead and choose ones that speak to your soul! Whether you're into natural stones or bold metallic cuffs, make sure they embody the essence of you.
Consider Your Outfit
When it comes to stacking bracelets, it's important to consider your outfit. But that doesn't mean you have to play it safe! Get creative and mix and match different textures, colours and styles to create a look that is uniquely you. In summer choose an outfit that reveals your wrist allowing you to show off your bracelet stack. And in winter consider layering one or two bangles over the top of plain long sleeve tops for an edgy look.
Coordinate Your Stacking Bracelets With Your Other Jewellery
Why not coordinate your stacking bracelets with other pieces of jewellery such as necklaces and earrings. Not only will this help complete your outfit but it also allows you to create multiple looks with the jewellery in your collection.
