Briccola Bora Water

I am unabashedly obsessed with all things nautical—half my wardrobe is in shades of navy blue and cream, with nods to nautical detailing… so it should come as no surprise that I was having a walk about Madrid the other day—relishing in this faux summer that often happens in Spring and window shopping as I’m wont to do—when I spotted a ridiculously chic girl sporting a darling nautical inspired bracelet—in yellow no less, my accessory color of choice of late. Before I even realized it, I blurted out, “Wwwwwhere did you get that bracelet?!” She smiled bemusedly, as if this happens to her often, and replied in a charming Italian accent, “Oh this? It’s from Italy – they’re called Briccola. “

Ciao Briccola! Nice to meet you, I’ll take the one in yellow, grazie.

I hurried home to investigate Briccola more – and to order the yellow one stat. Normally I get my palette from the sky, but with Briccola Bracelets it looks like I’ll be getting my palette from the winds—each Briccola bracelet represents a wind and hence, a personality trait.

Well color me Nautical Natalia, just like the interlocking Briccola that attaches the bracelet, I am hooked:
