The art of stacking bracelets doesn’t always come naturally to everyone. The key is to find the perfect balance between bold statement style and simplicity. Your gem colors and metal tones must complement each other and create a harmonious color story. You want a variety of textures and sizes to add eye catching interest, stacking bracelets should never be boring!

For all the guys and gals out there with sensitive skin like myself, you may experience negative skin reactions to certain metals such as nickel and possibly even silver. Metal allergies are fairly common and can result in red, swollen and itchy skin, which is medically known as contact dermatitis.

I have never been able to wear any earrings that contain even trace amounts of nickel. Many earrings that are labelled “sterling silver”, “nickel free” or “hypoallergenic” can still legally contain up to 5% nickel mixed into the metal. Other metals to avoid are surgical steel, copper, rhodium and any plated gold jewelry. For people with metal allergies, the best way to go is solid gold. Solid gold is also very lightweight and doesn’t stretch the skin which can also be a cause for irritation.

For Halloween we decided to choose a family costume that honored both my husband’s and daughter’s Mexican family heritage - Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera and Scout was baby Frida.
