While last year was all about piling on the bracelets in a “more is more” fashion, this year is all about creating a tempered assortment. In honor of some of the more minimal looks that went down the runway, we suggest a more grown-up way to layer your jewelry without ignoring a favorite summer pastime (friendship bracelets, anyone?). Pay homage to summers in Nantucket sans the rope bracelet by incorporating, say, a leather Miansai wrap bracelet and a Giles & Brother skinny spike bracelet. For a more bohemian vibe, mix Dannijo friendship bracelets with a shell-accented wrap bracelet from Aurélie Bidermann. They’ll make for a personality-infused look you’ll want to integrate into your wardrobe well past Labor Day. —Sasha Levine
