Need help to decide between Tiffany Bead Necklaces!

Hey Ladies!

I'm trying to finish up my Tiffany Bead "Collection" with a Bead necklace but I can't decide between the two.

First one: Bead Necklace, 10mm beads, 18.25 inches long

Second one: Bead Necklace, 6-11mm beads, 16.25 inches long
http://www.tiffany.ca/Shopping/Item...5-p+3-c+554142-r+501323338-x+-n+6-ri+-ni+0-t+

They are both beautiful necklaces and I can't decide which I prefer. I am worried that since I am only 21 I won't wear it as often as I would like. Do you think you could wear either necklace casually? I don't want the necklace to overpower me either since I am fairly petite (only 5'1"). Please give your opinions!!

Thanks in advance!!

if your petite, i find the graduated one to be better suited....the 10mm one makes a bold statement if your petite....

Thanks neverenoughbags! I'm just worried that the graduated necklace looks like the more dressy option of the two. Which do you think is dressier?

I think the fact that it's silver makes it a modern take on traditional pearls. If your 5'1, I really think the graduated will be better on your frame. It's also a shorter length, which will suit you better. I think both can be dressed up, or be casual pieces. You could totally do the preppy look with jeans and a collared shirt. The 10mm will look huge because all the beads are 10mm..... and because of the length. I find a lot of the smaller girls I see wearing the set, have the graduated because the 10mm can be overbearing on a small frame.

Thanks so much! I think the graduated is the better choice!
