It's a rebirth, so to speak, that trendsetters in jewelry are taking to adornment today because it speaks much of one's individuality with this more personal approach: the resurgence of charmed bracelets and necklaces.

These aren't your grandma's charm bracelets anymore. Almost every Manila Girl now carries a little design that caters to a certain style sensitivity, perfectly suiting a market where a person may fashion a collection of trinkets that speaks about their passion, experiences, and inner being. It could be as simple as the globe charm for travel aficionados, a miniature camera for the budding photographer, or maybe a four-leaf clover if you believe in a little extra help from above. Each of the charms tells a story.

The beauty of this trend? The options are limitless, making it almost timeless.
