Our fashion correspondent took three statement bracelets for a spin.
Chloé Comme Parris cuffs (pictured above)
Pro These eye-catching handcuff-style pieces got a ton of compliments (including, surprisingly, from a certified bro at the bar). They’re pretty comfortable, too.
Con You need to keep an eye on the upper cuff to make sure it stays jammed on your arm; otherwise, it slithers down. The chains caught on my chair at work a few times, and they can make a small racket when you walk.
$265 each, chloecommeparris.ca.

BCBGMAXAZRIA bracelet
Pro This elegant piece will elevate any ensemble to baller level. The on-trend gold and simple, old-school design also make it versatile.
Con It is really heavy. This bracelet must be removed with caution to protect yourself and those around you—an overly enthusiastic tug to release the magnetic clasp nearly resulted in a lost eye.
$177, bcbg.ca.

Spiked bangle
Pro Strong shapes are in this fall, and these bright colours add a pop of sunshine to more sombre autumn outfits. Plus, it’s budget-friendly.
Con The variety of eye-searing shades present an accessorizing challenge. And you really notice those spikes while typing or resting your arm on a chair during Breaking Bad. Ouch.
$24, Love of Mine.
