Default Cartier Love Bracelet
I can not decide what size to get the cartier love bracelet in either 17 or 18. the 17 moves up and down slightly but the 18 moves a little more up and down like a bangle should. i was wondering what everyone thought would be the best to get the 17 or the 18 and if you could post pics of yours if you have one thanks soooooo much!

The cartier love bracelet is supposed to fit snugly, so 17 seems to be your size. However, you should get what you are comfortable with. I went along with a close fit and couldn't be happier as it tends to bang around less (= fewer knocks and scratches) plus I can wear it on my left wrist together with my watch without the bangle clanging against my watch. Just some thoughts.

I agree with the above advise. It's not supposed to be a bangle and move around.

My love bracelet fits snugly and I prefer that it stays in one spot on my wrist.

I went to this store myself as i was confused between 16 and 17. 16 fit perfectly and the SA told me that it was the right size and that it shouldnt moe around. But i went for 17 as i felt in order to wear it all the time i didnt want it clinging on my wrist. and i didnt regret my choice. its much more comfortable.

but again.. go with whatever ur comfortable with.. :)

Ninah9 - Are you still happy with the "17"? I have the same dilemna. My cuff is a "17" but someone suggested that if I do the bracelet next to it, that I should go up a size. Otherwise the 2 would always be touching. What do you or anyone else here think?

Ditto with me. I didn't like the restricting feeling. So when DH got me one, he bought the 17. Mine can flip over and it sits similar to where Reese Witherspoon wears hers in Four Christmases. I've had it since last year and I'm glad I went with the bigger size.

I also went up a size, and love it, but is your choice, whatever feels right for YOU.
