Arm Cuffs Are The Y2K Trend Alexa Chung And Zoey Deutch Are Accessorising With This Summer
Yesterday Zoey Deutch stepped out in New York looking like the personification of the word chic.
And while her sleek bun and minimal Michael Kors Collection dress certainly built a foundation for the gorgeous outfit, it was her simple bracelets that stole the show.

The organic-shaped gold cuffs look like Elsa Perretti for Tiffany & Co's famous Bone bracelets - a timeless investment piece for fashion devotees.
The sublime asymmetry and sensuous contours of Elsa Peretti Bone cuffs have an ergonomic quality that makes them one with the body.
And it isn't just Deutch who has decided to embrace the cuff bracelet this summer. In fact, British style star Alexa Chung has been wearing the Y2K-beloved bracelet style non stop this summer.
Chung, who is a pro at tiny styling tricks that make a big impact, has been placing her bracelet on her upper arm. We first saw her try the trend in Cannes over her Mango trench coat, and since then it has barely left her bicep.
In one recent post the former fashion designer acknowledged her cuff bracelet addiction, captioning the post: 'Overly into upper arm shim sham.'
The 41-year-old has proved the styles versatility, wearing it with a sheer, leopard-print maxi dress (which is available to buy now).

And a Supriya Lele sheer, PVC mini dress.
We love the idea of cuffing these bracelets over long-sleeved clothes to transform a silhouette, but, as both Chung and Deutch prove, there's something elegant about placing them on bare skin too.
Time to try the Noughties trend for ourselves.
