Style Notes - 1937 - Convertible Jewelry

From the Los Angeles Time, Feb 1937

"Women are indulging in beautiful matched ensembles, in perfect separate pieces, or in single pieces that can be transformed into others"

"Bracelets are important. For daytime, heavy gold bracelets sometimes set with gems. Flexible gold or platinum bracelets with jeweled clasps fashioned from two clips that can be worn separately, and gold chain and link bracelets ad infinitum - all are smart with tweeds and sport clothes. For evening the formula is to wear as many on one or both arms asyou like"

"Brooches, very much in style now, are frequently made up of clips which may be used as such or as pins. Some of the newest clips turn on swivels to point up or down, according to the way they are to be worn"
