Shana Aldrich has created The Ropes -- a new twist on an old classic. Inspired by her home state of Maine, Aldrich married her love of fashion and design with the nautical environment she grew up in. The result was a very stylish and sporty line of bracelets which are perfect for this summer.
The Ropes come in a wide range of colors -- everything from neon pink and yellow to just plain old white. The bracelets are also unisex, making them a killer present no matter who you are buying for.
Aldrich admits that The Ropes was created by accident. She came up with the idea by playing with ropes at home and making bracelets for herself. This shows that sometimes the best innovations are sitting right in front of us.
