Obviously this has been the summer of friendship bracelets and one of the things I like best about the trend is all of the memories I am able to layer on one wrist. It's taken me all summer to get this far and with Fall showing no signs of curbing the trend I'm hoping to just keep on stacking.
1) Blue Elastic - given to me by my good friend Julie to wrap up a giant chocolate bar we had been devouring. I really like the colour and love having something to tie up my hair at the ready.
2) Orange Braid with charms - one of my El Mercado friendship bracelets which takes me back to our July trip to Mexico City.
3) Small Skull - I just bought this last weekend in Brooklyn and love how dainty it is.
4) Simple Black - The last time we were in Puerto Vallarta I visited with my Spanish teacher and she brought this for me to remember her.
5) Beaded Heart - The kids on our street were selling handmade jewelry (there are also daily lemonade stands) and V bought this one for me.
6) Copper Good Luck - A friend visited us in Mexico and we both bought these simple copper bracelets with icons of good luck stamped on them. Apparently in Mexico 13 is actually a lucky number.
