Grape Vine Bracelet

DressLover

I'm looking for a bracelet to wear for a wine tasting party. I've traditionally always been safe (read: boring) with jewelry, so I've been trying to step outside that comfort zone lately. This bracelet is definitely "more" than I am used to, but I think it will suit a wine tasting well and will add interest to a solid black or wine colored dress.

Question is the seller has two designs. They are very similar, but different enough to make me think about it. Which do you prefer, top or bottom? Or nay to it in general?

Oh, and I will probably remove the butterfly charm for the party.

I can't see much difference besides some lighter colored leaves on the top one. I guess if you want to pair it with some khaki or lighter items, too, that would be a nice touch. But I like the deep colors if you're just going with black or other dark clothing.

I have some wine jewelry, too. I know it borders on kitchsy but I love my earrings!

Cute bracelet! I vote for the bottom one, because I think the more concentrated color will "pop" better. It's a pretty marginal difference, though.

It is tough to tell from the picture, but the top one has more leaves and the bottom has more grapes. So the top is more dimensional on the wrist and the bottom lays more flush with the wrist.

Only color difference is the light leaves, but for some reason it sticks out to me.

I would prefer the bottom bracelet since that one is more flush to the wrist. And I wouldn't remove the butterfly.

Lisa, don't worry, I can always add it back in after the wine party.

Huh, I really don't see the difference between the two. In any case it's very cute but still pretty subtle in my opinion.

I vote for the bottom bracelet, but there isn't much different. Is flush against the wrist more comfortable?

My eyes are tired, maybe? so I can't tell the difference. But I love them both - I love to wear bracelets. I also wouldn't bother to take off the butterfly, but I also love butterflies!

I'm the only vote for the top, I guess I think the added dimensionality (not a word, apparently) will make this bracelet look fancier and far more interesting than a standard flat beaded bracelet.
