what I wore: kites & ilcentimetro

wowza, I've been dying to show you my new bracelets!

I'm sure you know how much I love anything novelty, so it's no surprise I'm a big fan of my latest additions. ilcentimetro have taken the iconic dressmakers tape measure and created potentially the most quirky accessory ever!

the bracelets cuff's themselves are gorgeous; real leather and handcrafted in italy the quality is fantastic but more importantly they're just really darn cool. they come in a whole range of colours and sizes, I choose the classic yellow as I love the colour and arctic white as the perfect neutral for mixing with lots of outfits. 

I've worn them today with one of my favourite tea dresses, one I bought last summer but still a firm favourite and since the sun's out I may as well take advantage! 

unfortunately the cuffs are unisex so my other half has decided that he's allowed to borrow them (good luck with that james!) I may have to resort to buying him one just so mine aren't kidnapped when I'm not looking...
classic yellow & arctic white cuff's: c/o ilcentimetro
tea dress: henry holland for debenhams (ss12)
belt: uo

what do you guys think of them?

back soon!
