Yes I definitely want to go back to the store and try on the 16 again for piece of mind, but I'm hoping it doesn't confuse me more lol because I can't exchange it now I'm over the exchange time period!

Hi all, I was just hoping for some advice please. My wrist is 15cm at the wrist bone, I recently bought a thin Love bracelet in size 17. It is definitely a loose fit with quite a bit of movement, but I would like to know does it look too big? I don't mind where it falls around my wrist, but it does annoy me a little that it goes quite a bit up my arm, wondering should I have gone for the 16cm or is the 17cm a good fit?

So this is my opinion, for me its a little bit big. My size from my wrist bone is 15cm and i went for 16cm regular love bracelet eventhough the SA strongly suggested the size17. For me i like it to be a bit snug on my wrist, so it won't bang anywhere as the bracelet is prone to scratches. im a bit clumsy and i know for sure if i get the size17 i have more tendency to do so. Plus i didnt like that the bracelet keeps going up and down my wrist. it kinda annoys me, and i found myself putting it above my arm where it get snug fit. I was like you, i wasnt really sure if i made the right decision. so after 2days, just for a confirmation to my own thoughts and sanity, i went back to the store trying to exchange and trying the size17 again. Watching youtube and reading about the sizing is not enough for me, coz i really needed to see and feel it to myself what i really wanted. I met a really nice SA and talk to her about my concerns. Then finally made the final decision. Coz theirs no turning back especially when the bracelet has already scratches. But to tell you honestly, i knew that in 2days wearing it. I still tried my luck in the store and its also because to try on the 17 again.

@sonz I think most of us have second guessed our choice at some point. It’s proven. Lol.

If you’re still doubtful, possible to return to store to try 16?

I did that as well.

I think so. Because this is not a cheap mistake that can be make. Im glad i stick with the size i got from the start. Otherwise i will feel so bad spending this money and just regret it.

Yup! peace of mind. I didnt have that for the first 2days of having my bracelet. I am so glad i went back to store to try again and even had the chance to try stacking it with the JUC.and I also needed confirmation.

Thank you so much for your feedback @cielopark I totally get what you're saying, I definitely feel like it's too big sometimes also, I am going back to the store to try on the 16 again and see how it feels and also try stacking with JUC and see if that makes a difference. And yes definitely too expensive to not be 100% happy with your decision! Thanks again :-)

If these pics help you abit.

My left hand with this Love seems to fit similar to yours. I’m 14cm at wrist bone. Love is 16. It will rest on my hand when my hand is down, just like yours. It does go up the arm similarly like yours. (This Love comes after my purchase of regular Love; it’s a passed-down. I mentioned this so as not to confuse with what I’m sharing later).

On my right, it’s regular Love in 15. Also wrist bone of 14cm (though my thinnest part is 13.5). The Love will rest on the bone when hand is down.
it has less movement surely. Is this what you’re looking for when you’re considering 16?

Anyway, sm love is more “forgiving” when one likes snug fit.

I think it all comes down to your comfort level. And also put into consideration of your summer wrist size; shape of wrist also matters. Or if you plan to stack more in future. I had mixed opinions here when I asked for feedback on 15 n 16 when I was troubled by sizing before my purchase. The SA told me I should be a 16. Took home one but then returned within 2 weeks to exchange for a 15. (But then I didn’t even unbox the 16).

So ultimately it’s your personal comfort that matters.

Yes pics help heaps thanks @Purrsey I actually really like the look of the thin pave Love (btw GORGEOUS) size on your wrist, looks very elegant. So basically I think I need two now also lol, actually I'm leaning towards keeping the 17 at this stage, also because I don't wear 24/7 so won't be annoying having more movement when I do wear it!

*forgot to ask, which size do you prefer 15 or 16 ? @Purrsey

TBH I have mixed feeling.
I like the comfort of 15. I don’t really feel its presence due to less movement, and not weighing down on my hand. Con is since it’s the smallest, I have limitations on other bracelets I can stack with nicely (eg.doesn’t overlap each other). Most bracelets aren’t made for smaller wrist. But if you’re 17 (or even 16), then this shouldn’t bother you.

With 16, I have more choices on stacking. I wouldn’t say it’s uncomfy; just that I can feel it throughout the day. But I do wear 24/7 so that may be a little different from your case.

On hindsight, we have two arms so having both sizes on different hands solve my problem! :biggrin:

This is mine. the love bracelet. this is when i went back to the store to check the size 17. it really helps trying it again. and i love how they stack with JUC. The love bracelet is place a bit high than the usualy place i put. the JUC is size smaller so its 15. anyhow you are most welcome. Still good to know other peoples opinion and it helps a lot especially when you talk to the SA.
