Why is it called a tennis bracelet?

Tennis bracelets are a popular jewelry trend that has been around for years, but many may not know why these diamond-encrusted bracelets have their name. The simple diamond bracelet was given its name after renowned tennis champ, Chris Evert, lost her own diamond bracelet during a match. She asked the officials to stop the match until they found the piece of jewelry.

One thing's for sure, this bracelet belongs in everyone's jewelry box. This simple, yet glamorous bracelet is the perfect accessory to any outfit. Ladies can pair it with a gorgeous frock to go out on the town or they can wear it to the office to give a touch of sophistication. Just like the "little black dress," every woman should have a tennis bracelet on hand.

The best part is, ladies do not have to break the bank to purchase a tennis bracelet, just opt for affordable jewelry such as the 12.60 TCW Princess-Cut Cubic Zirconia 14k Yellow Gold-Plated Straight Line Tennis Bracelet.
