WIW Th - a bit of a miss, accessories challenge and new cuff

I was already wearing the pants when the knock on the door came for the cuff delivery. I kind of threw on a tee that had been worn earlier this week and thought I'd see if my cardi would work tonally. It doesn't lol. And I don't care for the half tuck under the sweater, but wanted to get the belt some air time since it was part of my month's challenge.
Anyway, I'm not going anywhere so if the cat thinks I clash, that's alright lol. I do like the accessories all together and will likely pair them with a different outfit in the future. All is not lost

I love the bracelet, but despite reviews saying it was so snug, it does roll all the way around my wrist so that the hardware is under instead of on top. This happens with 90% of my watches and bracelets, so I don't think it's a deal breaker. Annoying, and I have to 'flick' my wrist every once in a while or push the bracelet quite low on my wrist to prevent it, but what's new? Would you return it or just live with the rolling?

PS: and growing out my bangs is a real b*@&# right now so ignore the hair please

Mo, as a fellow "skinny wrister" I would keep the bracelet. I'm used to that sort of thing and if I otherwise love it, I deal with it. And I really love that bracelet!

Thanks Linda, it is a lot better than most, but still not quite as snug as I would need. But you're right, some things you just learn to live with to some degree!
Oh, and it's on sale at Ann Taylor online if you want to be twins

I always have this problem! My wrists are very slender too, so most bracelets don't fit me perfectly either. It looks great though

Hi Mo,

I actually think the outfit works quite well! The tones don't clash that much to my eye but maybe it looks different IRL.

Great cuff! I also have slender wrists and for awhile wore chunky cuffs etc.- but find myself gravitating toward either elasticated bracelets that don't shift, slender bangles that are supposed to clink around, or no wrist jewellery at all.

I often find myself pushing cuffs further up my arm toward the elbow to stop them rolling around but inevitably they fall back down the arm again. If the fiddling doesn't bother you, keep. But if it's irritating I'd return, and look for something more fitted or elasticated.

I like the colors, the seem very earthy and play well together. I like the cuff, I would keep it because even if the hardware is not right side up, the animal print is pretty and still shows right?

KILLER cuff! I love the outfit too.

I have a few clients in that cuff and it really is sensational. Such great quality too.

I think the outfit works well Mo! The colors look cohesive to me. You could always go for the full tuck since you have the cardigan over the top. And the bracelet! Very cool, I would absolutely keep (fellow skinny wrist gal here) unless it's too heavy and is actually hurting your hand/arm. I've had to return a few nice, heavy cuffs from AT because of that

This is quite nice, Mo - I like the color mix!

Janet

I like the colors in your outfit! And those shoes are cute too. The cuff is awesome, and I also have trouble with everything I wear on my skinny wrists turning around. Not a deal breaker at all for me.

Marley

I think this entire outfit works - the colors are good - and that cuff is a definite keeper! I have the same issues with cuffs and too small of wrists - sometimes ya' gotta' sacrifice for fashion - so I'd keep it!

You look lovely in those growing bangs. That bracelet is a definite keep for me. I also have the same problem of rolling my watches or bracelets every time due to the problem mentioned by you. So maybe that's worth.

Wow I want one of them.
