Arm Candy
Remember the good ‘ole nights when your parents left you at home with a sitter, some pizza and your best friend? And you had the power to do whatever you wanted? I have a pretty good memory, but I especially remember being obsessed with making friendship bracelets. I swear I had containers jam-packed with string in each compartment and buckets full to the brim with colorful beads that could last a lifetime. I guess you could say I had a friendship bracelet franchise and it seems as if fifteen years later someone has stolen my business!
Never got to make those precious childhood memories?? Well now’s your chance! Friendship bracelets are back baby and they are this summer’s must have. Who knew string and beads would be so popular again? (And expensive!!) I mean they are all over the place. Weather I’m flipping through US or walking down South Congress – they are taking over (literally – taking over your arm). Don’t feel like splurging on these babies? Don’t. Make them yourself! Come on – I know you remember how. If only I had saved all those over the years…
Personally, I could wear 100 at a time… all the way up to my elbow. I’m not even kidding – seriously, I’m obsessed!! Mix and match ‘em, go solo or stack ‘em. Choose braided, beaded or bedazzled and wear them with style. Get wild and crazy with different colors and combos. This isn’t just fun people… this is art and you are the artist!! Buy a pair of two and give one to your bestie or leave some up on your boy-toy’s computer so he gets the hint. They also make for the perfect bridesmaid’s gift. I am telling you that these will turn heads… don’t let your arm go naked this summer. So get on the shopping and hurry up and buy!
You know you love me!
