Bella Hadid wears an elegant white dress with gold bangles

I’ve long looked to Bella Hadid when looking for new season outfit inspiration. Often one to debut new trends, Hadid is adept at incorporating interesting pieces into everyday outfits in a chic, easy-to-wear way. Her industry-savvy styling instincts result in an enviably cool wardrobe filled with both stylish staples and statement pieces – and she strikes the perfect balance between the two.

Hadid stepped out in Cannes looking stunning in yet another stunning style, exuding elegance in a simple outfit. Swapping her LBD for a breezy white dress, the model opted for an asymmetrical look for her day on the French Riviera. She kept her accessories minimal and relaxed, but what impressed me most was that she elevated her look with a few gold bangles.

Gold bangles never go out of style, but the past few seasons have seen more delicate bracelets take over—think those thin welded chains everyone had on their wrists last year—but ’90s-inspired bangles are back, and Hadid is using them to add a twist to her classic ensembles.

Bangles are making a comeback as a staple in fashionistas’ jewelry rotation. The accessory allows the wearer to add a touch of sparkle without losing sight of a minimalist or classy aesthetic. We’ve seen influencers opting for a single, larger bangle rather than stacking them together. What they have in common is that they seem to wear them with simple outfits, which adds to the ’90s-inspired appeal of bangles.

The bangle trend is back across the high street and designer brands, and while I love COS’s hammered designs, Jil Sander’s cuffs are firmly on my wishlist.
