Remember those whimsical DIY baubles that you would be able to get as a kid? I'm talking about the friendship bands from 77th Street (RIP), and the personalised beaded necklaces from a kiosk at your neighbourhood shopping mall. These were the nostalgic jewellery pieces you would make with your BFF, signaling your union to the world or an iconic name-plate necklace that made you feel special. We're happy to report that those pieces are back in fashion, albeit in a more grown up way. If you're looking for a fun and unexpected piece to add some whimsy to your everyday outfits, scroll through to see some of our best pics.
