Kiss and Shell

You? A scaredy-cat? You betcha.

When lightning strikes, shadows appear, or loud noises sound, you’re under the covers.

So the thought of venturing out for an African safari? You’ll pass, thanks. You prefer your ferocious animals in a zoo.

Want all the points for none of the courage? Throw on exotic handmade bracelets from Big Mango Trading Company. The shiny shell exterior is set in a wooden frame and comes in a variety of animal prints — like zebra stripes and leopard spots — that can be safely worn at all times.

An elastic band makes them a cinch to slip on and off, and the designs (also in not-so-terrifying patterns such as a simple pearl or a soft tan swirl) work with even your meekest attire. These great accessories are versatile enough to pair with any of your favorite colors.

Even that yellow streak of yours.


Available at Big Mango Trading Company, 1130 North Industrial Boulevard, in the Design Center (214-752-4755 or bigmangotrading.com).
