It's a subjective definition I guess. To me, loose means I can push it up my arm a few inches so that when I type on my laptop it won't bang on it ... so we are talking about 2, 3 inches from the wrist bone. Mine are on the loose side and I love it that way. I've seen pictures of celebrity with their Love bracelets that they can push half way up their forearm.

I went 2 sizes up and don't regret it at all. even on hot summer days my bracelet is nice and loose. I just switched my bracelet from my dominant hand to my right wrist and still fits nice and loose. I'm very happy with the size :D

Hi, I've just ordered an 18 -- which is 2 sizes from my SA recommendation. Just wondering what size is yours. Do you have a picture to share?

Hi, I have exactly the same thoughts. I ordered an 18 instead of the 16 which my SA recommended. Do you have a photo to share?

I was sized at 16 but decided to get a 17 for a looser fit. I wear mine on my right arm (dominant writing hand) and here it how it hangs on my wrist:

I *kind* of wish I went for a tighter fit because the bracelet gets banged around a lot, especially when I wear other bracelets. But I also wonder if a size 16 would feel uncomfortably tight on me. When the bracelet does get in the way, however, I like how I can push it up my arm and it stays. In the end, I am happy with my decision!

This is something I am struggling with too. The SA recommends a snug fit, where my finger can barely fit in. I am thinking the next size up will be better, but it does seem a little loose. I am afraid I will sweat in the summer with a snug fit and have always worn my watches and bracelets loose.

I wear mine more tight than loose but don't really consider it tight. I can still twist it on my wrist. I can push it up close to 2" from the top of my hand. I did have a size bigger and found it quite annoying.....so much so that I would wake up in the middle of the night to push it down my arm. I really do believe this is a very 'personal choice' decision. I am getting a second though and hoping that I will like wearing two in this size.

I was sized at 16 and love the fit. It's just loose enough so that it sits comfortably about a half inch below my wrist bone and I can push it up about 3 inches above my wrist bone. I love it!!

Mine is also just right, it can turn around, but I have to push it a little.
I don't like it too loose, I think a bit snug looks cooler and it wears much more comfortably.
I just really love how designer Phillip Lim wears his. (see thread: Celebrities and their Cartier Love Bracelets) That look can only be created by wearing them not too loose.

But it's really all personal preference! ;)
