Expressive, bold and loud, these popular statement bracelets by young fashionista Jac Vanek are being embraced by socially conscious and pro-active teens. By rocking these bold statement bracelets, teens show their support and spread the word about their favorite charities (like TWLOHA) and open up opportunities to discuss life's bigger questions.
Vanek began making statement bracelets for her friends but caught the attention of the teen masses during rock and punk concert tours. She now collaborates with leading indie bands like Cobra Starship and Boys Like Girls.
