After seasons of hard-core shoulders, grommets and studs, I am thrilled that the fashion world is returning to its softer, more soulful side.  Like the bad dude in the horror movie that refuses to die, I'm sure that the 80's will return with a vengeance one day but for now, it's all about the 70's.  The wrists at Hermes were stacked with neutral bangles that perfectly complemented the models' outfits.   Bangles in natural textures, woods, and tribal motifs are an organically gorgeous way to update your look, especially if you're the strong, subtle type.  And what better time to embrace a more organic look than right now?  I can't remember a time in my life where it's been so cool to be natural.  Reusable shopper?  Check.  Aluminum water bottle?  Check.  Wooden bangles?  Check, check, check.  Okay, so you're not going to save the planet by adopting an eco-chic look but it will certainly keep you at the forefront of fashion.  Real Life Runway Tip:  The general consensus in fashion circles is that being matchy-matchy is a no-no.  This is one of the cases where it actually works brilliantly.  Pull a shade of cream, brown or toffee from your outfit, be it a belt, shoe or shirt, and find bangles that reside in the same colour family for maximum impact.
