I'm considering getting my first Pandora. I've resisted till now as I've other bracelets I love to wear, mostly several at a time and I felt I would wear them less. I've decided now I'd really love one and it will be adding to what I already wear.
I've loved looking through at all your fabulous bracelets & charms.
I think initially I'd probably not want loads of charms but the lovely thing with Pandora is you can wear them either way. My big decision is whether to go for a silver starter bracelet or the one with the gold clasp? I quite often mix yellow/white gold and silver but sometimes just stick to silver/white gold.I'm a big pink fan and think silver looks lovely with some pink charms, so I just can't decide if I'd want a yellow gold clasp there, or would it matter anyway................oh decision, decisions. I guess if I stick with silver, I could always add a little yellow gold in the charms or spacers when a different look was required.
Help, advice needed
You could go with a Gold clasp bracelet, make sure that you get a size that the SA recommends-meaning- get a size that fits tight. They do loosen up with wear and you wouldn't want one that hangs too low. Pink charms would look great with both Gold and Silver. Or you could get a Silver Bracelet first, see how you feel about it, fill it with only 2-3 charms, if you like that look? and go from there.
Thank you - I could spend hours looking at everyone's bracelets! What variety and they are all so lovely!
I have a dangle but had to remove it as it really bothered me.
My next idea is for my (now empty) bangle. I foster dogs for a rescue organization. It always is bittersweet when one I've had for awhile gets adopted. So I plan to start purchasing a charm to represent each one as they move on to their forever home. I see there are several that are actually dog related (paw prints, bones, etc.) but I could also choose a heart or even some other object that reminds me of that dog. Anyway - that's my new idea and new excuse to buy more
Lovely to see so much colour, I've never seen such a beautiful yellow bracelet before. It reminds me of spring time :blossom:
I'm loving seeing all your bracelets. Is there a thread with just pictures on and no chatter? I'm going a bit boss eyed looking through 100's of pages :giggles:

Thanks Rose10, I've decided to do just that and go with the silver one. I've got a feeling I've caught the Pandora bug and one isn't going to be enough.
looking through the pictures I love the look of the multi toned gold & silver, the black is also calling to me...........but I'm going to start with silver and a few pink/silver charms. Thanks for the advice on sizing, I had in idea they expanded. The website recommends wrist size plus 1-2cms, does this sound about right?
I did pop into my local store and try one on but it was so packed & I had a thick coat on, so it wasn't ideal. I will go back after Christmas when hopefully it's not quite so busy....................there was a queue coming out the door and ropes across, whereas all the other jewellery stores were empty, wow, the power of Pandora.

Silver
Wonderful bracelets everyone.
Impossible to pick favourites, they are all sooo pretty.I have a new addition to my collection, hubby got me the turtle dove charm (with a pendant heart) the other day. It is very cute and romantic.
As soon as I figure out how to combine it, I'll post some pics.

I am sure, one isn't going to do it
with the bracelet on your wrist you should be able to get two fingers between the bracelet and ur wist, but barely. It should feel snug and tight but not uncomfortable. Post pics as you get ur new goodies!! It might be showing up yellow on the photo but those flowers are daisy they are white and the one with the watch is 14k yellow gold and the charms are 14k gold as well I have silver, two tone and 14k gold. Im glad you liked it and Happy Holidays❤️
Have a great time with your loved ones today and tomorrow. 
Just to say "A very merry Xmas" to all the ladies on this thread may Santa bring you lots of Pandora goodies
