We rarely see celebrities recycle their outfits, especially at red carpet events. Once they have been photographed in their designer clothes, these items normally get placed in the back of their closets, safely hidden so that they do not make the mistake of wearing them out in public again.
There are certain items, though, that our celebs get attached to and wear over and over again. One example is the Cartier “Love” bracelet, which Ashley Madekwe is fond of. She has been spotted several times wearing the classic bangle that we all know and love.

The famed ‘Love’ bracelet comes in several renditions — silver, yellow gold, white gold, pink gold, and more. This classic jewelry looks good with everything, making it a go-to accessory for many celebs.
Another reason why stars like Ashley wear it so much is because it is not that easy to take off. This particular style has a screw fastening lock, and one cannot just simply slip it off the wrist. It is definitely a great fashion investment if you are willing to splurge.
