Indian Bangle bracelets. I wore these to a wedding with the yellow silk sari in the closet.

Fun facts:

The word bangle has been derived from the Hindu word Bangri or Bangali, which in sanskrit gives the meaning “the ornament which adorns the arm”. They are worn all over the world for style and fashion, but bangles originate in a set of specific customs in Indian culture.

Some Indian men wear a single bangle called a "kada".

For Indian women, bangles are not just mere ornaments. Bangles are considered the symbol of the complete woman. While girls in traditional Indian society are allowed to wear bangles, married women are generally expected to wear bangles. It is a tradition to wear this style of Indian gold bangles after marriage, symbolizing health, luck, and prosperity.
