Chunky bangles are still en vogue, but recently stars have been pushing bracelets further up their arms. At an event during the Academy of Country Music Awards, Nicole Kidman accessorized her L'Wren Scott strapless with an ornate emerald and gold armlet, or "Baju Bandh" as they're called in India. Nicole Richie took a modern approach and fashioned a biceps bracelet by pushing her House of Harlow bangles over her elbows. If your arms aren't as skinny as Nic's (whose are?!) you can get a similar look by placing a bangle right below your elbow, as Lauren Conrad did at Us Weekly's Hot Hollywood Party.
