Hey guys,

So I've been wanting a Tiffany charm bracelet for what feels like forever. I'd get some charms that they have that are actually pretty meaningful to me on a RtT bracelet. In expressing this wish to my younger sister she said that "You're almost 21, isn't too old for charm bracelets?" I never thought you could be "too old for a charm bracelet" but before I go out and invest I wanted to hear what y'all had to say. Thank you!
 
Thank you all so much for your replies!! I'm a big bracelet stacker, so I feel like the charm bracelet would really round out a beautiful arm party. No pictures yet because I still am deciding between this and a few different accessories but I wanted to make sure this was still a valid option to consider. No idea what my sister is thinking, just means I probably won't take her along with!
 
You know your aesthetic ..just wear whatever makes you happy. Don't shoot me for this but charm bracelets do look childish. Ladies please don't HATE me for this. just my honest opinion.

I was never a charm bracelet kinda girl ..I like cleaner lines so I only wear two loves stacked. To each their own.
 
Well I'm 41 and I wear a charm bracelet almost every day. I love them and have several. No one has ever told me I look childish or I'm not dressing my age.

My grandmother wore a beautiful gold one her whole life and she was known for being a very elegant stylish lady.

Wear it with confidence. That's what makes the difference.

Yeahhhh....it looks childish.
But I,for example,cannot resist.
I have 3 charm bracelets and my Pandora Charm bracelets
and it is fun to wear them. ;)
 
Again, thank you all so much for validating me! I think it's a personal preference, however I definitely would feel extremely comfortable wearing one.

On to some more disappointing news: almost like clockwork, I've recently discovered a pretty big issue with some Tiffany silver. I received this ring as an 18th birthday present from one of my best friends and am absolutely heartbroken to see this crack. Funny thing is that the silver doesn't seem to have stretched or thinned, just crack! Kind of nervous about investing in more until I can get this figured out. Thoughts?

Take it in! My SA would replace that right on the spot or send it in for free repair.

Unfortunately they do not make this exact ring anymore and it was an 18th birthday gift from my best friend so I wouldn't want another as this is so sentimental!

Good news is I did have it sent in, and it looks like they can repair it! The repair will be about $50 and I'm going to continue to wear and see how the quality holds up. Not really in the market for a Tiffany charm bracelet if it will get cracks in it, you know?
