Hi everyone! Ok, so I have researched up and down the forum and off of google too with sizing and how everyone prefers the fit as well as what the sa's recommend and I'm still undecided. I have a yg love in a size 17 that I'm passing to my mom. This is because she likes the bracelet, also hubby wants to upgrade me to either 4 or 10 diamond.
When I first got the bracelet, I was sized at 17 in 2 different stores. I tried on a size 16 in the sizer once and it was not very comfy near wrist bone, but I heard that the sizer fits differently compared to the actual bracelet. I don't know how much difference the sizer vs the actual bracelet fit. I wondered if the actual bracelet in 16 would have been just right. I therefore bought the 17, but for some strange reason I always felt that my 17 was a tad big on me since I read on the forum the true fit should be more tight. Also, from the top it looks ok but side profile theres a pretty big gap, a lot of space open.
I have also seen many pictures of people in a slightly fitter look. My wrist is fairly tiny at 14.5 cm on both arms, I do however have a wrist bone and that will put me at 15 and slightly bigger on the right side vs left. I think my problem specifically is if I get a 16 I'm afraid the screw part will be uncomfortable near my wrist bone. 17 will be better near wrist bone but too big in the arm area. My old 17 now goes up about 4 inches up my arm I don't know if that's too big? How far should the bracelet go?
I know of course this is personal preference too. I really want to make sure this time I make the right sizing choice and not have a single doubt if I made the right decision. I will go into the store to try on the 16 but still wanted to get opinions from everyone on the forum since I know you guys are always helpful and can provide a better insight for me. I have attached a couple pics for everyone's review. Thanks for helping out everyone!! It's much appreciated.
