The Charm Bracelet: Yay or Nay?

I'm not talking about things like Alex & Ani, but rather the chunky "collected" charms look.  

 

Do you like the chunky ones?  Do you have one and if so, what charms have you added?

 

These are some fashion pieces-

Coins seem to be especially popular-

I have several charm bracelets that I enjoy wearing.  One has long beads of turquoise and I attach it to a short string of beads necklace and wear it as a necklace.  I've got one full of Carolyn Pollack charms and another of Gems en Vogue (Evine) charms.  Then I've got this which is the most expensive piece of Indian jewelry I own.  It's got high quality vintage Bisbee turquoise.

I have a gold charm bracelet but it's not that large and chunky.  I am a fan of the lighter look.  HOWEVER, I have always wanted to own one of those iconic larger link charm bracelet that just holds one large gold heart with my initial engraved on it.

Yay for me!  I wear one on each wrist every day, along with my other bracelets.  Smiley Happy

Nay.  I have one my godmother gave me.  I'm thinking I was around 12.  She had some charms put on it, but I don't remember what they are.  It's silver.

LOVE charm bracelets!  I inherited my grandmother's yellow gold one that has family pieces from the 1800's on it.  I also have my sterling one from my teen years, a couple of Pandora ones, a David Yurman Anniversary gold and silver one and a yellow gold one that I started for myself.  I just love them all!

Re: The Charm Bracelet: Yay or Nay?

I have a gold charm bracelet that I bought charm by charm from the Q about 15 years ago. The charms were not cheap, but I could never afford to duplicate it at today's prices. Sadly, I rarely wear it anymore, because my taste runs more to silver these days. I thought about selling it, but each charm means something to me, and I just can't

Re: The Charm Bracelet: Yay or Nay?

Definitely "Yay"! I got my silver charm bracelet from my parents as a Christmas gift with one charm on it when I was 12....an ornament shaped disk that says "Merry Christmas" on one side and "Love, Mom & Dad" on the other. Now, 18 years later, it is a bracelet showing my life...vacations, Confirmation, graduation, etc. Each and every charm has a meaning and I love that! Besides my wedding ring, it's the most sentimental piece of jewelry I ownSmiley Happy

I love charm bracelets.  I love the sound of charms.  My first one was a monet that I got in high school in the 70's I have since found another monet bracelet without the charms but will add monet charms when I can find them.  My newest charm bracelet is from Gems en vogue Michael V. on Evine.  I love this bracelet, however his charms are not cheap so I add one or two when I can.
