I still love mine but have not bought anymore charms in a long while. Happy with what I've got and don't lust for any of the new stuff even though they are pretty. But I have enough different coloured charms and muranoes to able to do different styles. I'm definatlely more restrained now. I do prefer the original pandora concept from what it has become now.
I have the two tone and the 14k bracelets. The gold is my go-to bracelet despite owning other 18-22k gold bracelets and bangles from other jewelers. Bought new charms early this year but have no plans in the near future. Pandora has been holding back on releasing 14k gold charms with precious stones and there hasn't been any new solid gold bracelet style in recent years. And if they do, not sure if it would be worth the price unless bought during sale events. He shine collection pieces are dazzling but not my style. I've only started collecting three years ago so I don't know how I would feel about it in the years to come. As a charms based bracelet, I think it will always be stylish and personally relevant.

I think Pandora has had its day really, this used to be such an active lovely thread, with great ideas.
I don't buy them now but I wear my gold charm one most of the time with other bracelets, including my gold Pandora bangle.. I also wear my two-tone one but rarely wear any others as I don't feel the love
anymore......except my Christmas one which I've just put on.I haven't bought new charms for a couple of years. I admit to buying too many and wish I hadn't! I stopped collecting several years ago as I thought the prices were way over the top but I still got tempted in their sales..........I don't know, just not interested.
I did try to sell a few off but the market is flooded with them, I think the amount of fakes selling on eBay has ruined selling anything genuine which is a shame,

Although Pandora may not be as popular as maybe 5 years or so ago, I think it's still popular. The lines in the mall this weekend during sale event was around the corner. When I travel to certain parts of the country I still see many women wearing Pandora bracelets. I don't think they will ever be truly gone.
I don't buy them anymore either. I have two bracelets which I still love and wear frequently. I love them because each of the charms mean something. But after two bracelets I said really I have enough. And then Pandora changed direction. The charms are pricey and no longer as nice as in the past.
All the fakes on ebay make me disinclined to buy them second-hand.

How ironic that I now mostly wear an older pandora bangle (liquid silver wave) that was from the time before the big pandora charm hype. (I’ve worn it nonstop for months now.)
Oh I LOVED those! Wanted to buy one but I waited for them to go on sale, I waited too long and the ones in my size were gone.
Lovely, I have several charms the same. ❤️
I started wearing my bracelet early this year at the end of Nov. I always used to add a few every year in the Xmas sale for the following year but I've stopped buying Pandora now . I'm going to try the "no spend challenge" in Jan
So no more for a while now. Perhaps we could all add our Christmas bracelets and add a bit of sparkle
