The style of these bracelets is always different: there are those made entirely of beads, others that report the titles of the songs or of each “era” (for neophytes in the world of Taylor Swift, these are the periods corresponding to each album released by the singer) or words extracted from songs or even references to the entire universe of Taylor Swift.
