Pair allowed in band (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bracelet

'band' is the definition.
(bracelet is a kind of band)

'pair allowed' is the wordplay.
'pair' becomes 'brace' ('brace' can be a synonym of 'pair'**).
'allowed' becomes 'let' (I've seen this before).
'brace'+'let'='BRACELET'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for bracelet that I've seen before include "Let caber be made into a piece of jewellery" , "Band around the wrist" , "charm?" , "Ornament worn on arm or wrist" , "Wrist, arm adornment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
