Elizabeth Bailey 19, Student “I’m in town for Fashion Week, and there seems to be an all-or-nothing mentality when it comes to jewelry.

Katie Sapp 23, Freelance Fashion Assistant “The cuff was handed down to me as a family heirloom. My grandfather was a Marine in World War II. When the war was over, he had his badge welded to this silver cuff and gave it to my grandmother to wear. Not only does it mean so much to me, but I think it is stylish and unique too.”

Willow Lindley 23, Market Editor “Silver is definitely my go-to for jewelry. I bought these simple cuffs at Cos in Copenhagen. I loved the lightness in tone and had been looking for the perfect bracelets to wear on each wrist.”
