I am "friends" with an apparent homophobic girl. (she has said truly mean things to many LGBT friends of mine). I am pretty open about my orientation. If someone asks I'm truthful and I am not one to blatantly out of the blue announce that im Bi. Recently she made a homophobic comment in front of my. Regrettably, at the time I didnt take notice of it.

Basically, I want the opportunity to say a few things to her about this, and make her understand that im Bi.

However, I need the opportunity to come up to tell her who I truly am. And her to say something mean back. How should I casually let her know?

I have considered wearing a pride bracelet or something of the nature, however that would take some time to either buy/make and I want to end this conflict now.

Simple lah, tell her who you are. If she denies you, she is not a true friend.

if i was in your shoes i would just come out and ask her to stop ssaying homophobic things if she wants to stay your friend. im not one to randomly come out either but sometimes it needs to be done to shut someone up

"Hey, I heard you said to one of my friends. I was wondering if you could stop..." is a good way to bring it up. Might want to tweak a word or two but still.
Great way for not having to randomly come out, only really having to do so if she asks why you care so much. Even then you could say that she just hurt your friend's feelings and that's what a true friend would do.

or

"Oh, that girl be smoooookinnn'," could be another comment you could say where it possibly could lead to a harsh comment to your face and you coming out to her. But I'd prefer the first. I'd rather not get harsh talk thrown in my face : /
