[quote=Anonymous]Indian here. No, it's not. I think cultural appropriation becomes more of an issue if you take something that continues to have deep cultural or religious meaning, e.g. a bindi, and wear it as decoration without any regard to the culture that gave you the idea. Bangles do have some cultural significance in that the material they are made of tells you a woman's marital status (and Sikhs wear a specific one), but they are generally decorative. I used to wear metal bangles with Western dresses in exactly the way you are describing. You are fine.[/quote]
