Chi City Closet: Rachel Leigh Bracelet

I have to admit, I’ve been a little Gilt obsessed lately. A dress, some jewelry and a clutch later, I subconsciously ordered a whole new outfit (no complaints here though!)

Anyway, one of my favorite (yet simplest) things I bought was this Rachel Leigh bracelet. I love the color and texture of it, and it’s a perfect layering piece with my watch or other bangle bracelets.

Love the little note that comes with my Gilt purchases 🙂

The best part is…I got a great deal on this bracelet (plus the other items I ordered) on Gilt. So here is your exclusive invitation to join…Become a member now!
