Wondering if anyone else feels like their regular size Love looks small on their wrist. I have big hands and I'm wearing a size 18 Love. I feel like it looks more like the thin Love. I ordered mine online and didn't see it in person first (although have seen MANY a Love bracelet IRL). But for some reason on me I'm questioning it's thickness. Am I being crazy? I've been trying to compare mine to pics online and I feel like mine looks so thin and the circles look small and not as deep as others I've seen. Help a girl out!

Funny you should say this. If you mean the width of the bracelet, I thought the same about mine when I first got it. I think some photos we see on line (because of camera lens focal length—wide angle—or angle the photo is taken) give a skewed representation. Where I live I rarely see it worn so I wasn’t used to seeing it in real life before I got mine. Yours looks lovely! It doesn’t look like a thin love to me at all.

Hi ladies (and gents!). I am curious for those that have owned their love bracelets for some time - has your love bracelet’s fit ever been impacted by weight loss or weight gain? I am wanting to go with my “true size” (neither too snug or too lose size 17 love for my 15.8cm wrists) but as I am nearing my early 30s and have not yet had kids, I am wondering if wrists can fluctuate with age etc or with weight loss/weight gain. Thank you! :smile:

i’m also in my early thirties, haven’t had kids and was between an 18 and 19. My SA has an 18 that she’s worn for 5+ years and the 18 fit on me snugly, the way her 18 fit on her. She said her weight has gone up and down with kids and life and would get the 19 if she could go back and do it again so I went with that and I’m so happy I did! Keep in mind your body swells in the summer so you want that room as well. I purchased mine in January so wanted to factor summer swelling in too. Especially if you want to stack a watch or another bracelet. Hope this helps!

Thank you! Yes it’s hard to describe. Wide would seem to mean the size, as in how it fit on the wrist (16/17/18etc), so I wasn’t sure if I was explaining myself well enough. When I first opened it in the box I was like “um, did they send me a thin Love on accident?” It just seemed so thin.

Hi J.
My aunt has gained weight and somehow her wrist does show the impact (thus I am able to wear some of her older jewellery pieces :biggrin: ). She no longer can wear size 15 but wears a 17 now. Partly also she prefers a looser fit now, with that 2 size jump.

but some people say wrist shouldn't change much. But from what I see, it does but of course it depends on how much one person gained.

With a snug fit, I also tend to tell myself I must keep in shape lol.

Thank you so much for your response! You are lucky to now be able to wear some of her older pieces :angel: totally agree with your logic about the snug fit and staying in shape lol!
