Thank you, that is helpful advice. I think your wrist is a teeny bit smaller than mine, as my 14.5 is over the thinnest part. The no returns is bummer - I have to be sure.
If you order though your sales associate just tell them that you need to try it on for size, I have always been able to return for a refund. Sometimes I order 2 options and return the one that I do not prefer. Since stock may be limited and ordering 2 sizes may not be possible, just inquire if you can return for a refund if it doesn't fit.

You can always exchange for a different size.

Thank you so much! do your loves also stack with your single row diamond perfectly? My love is size 15, so I'm probably ordering a sweet clover perlee in xs. I will order online, but all comments seem to be pointing to xs and that it will be slightly larger than the love, but will still stack.
I don’t own any loves anymore. But I think the 15 should stack well with the XS.

The problem is the 44K price is over 50K CAD. Anything over 50K is non returnable, exchange only. It would be unfortunate if I found one size too small and the other too large, sort of a goldilocks situation. I can feel the OT hammer about to come down...sorry!
 
I think it depends on your wrist. My wrist is mostly skin and bones, an unfortunate combination that makes most bangles very uncomfortable. Most people don’t have my issues.
I agree, I never wear my Loves without Perlee "buffers" on the edges, but I would rather walk over hot coals than wear heels or a pencil skirt, so it's all relative!

Ahh - I’m sorry!! Are there any bangles that you do find comfortable?
Sometimes I wonder how people can stack so many Loves. I find my Love bothering me :confused1: every so often. It’s the inner part of the screw/locking mechanism thats drives me craaaazy sometimes :hrmm:.

My JUC feels nice and smooth against my skin, and my various Alhambras, well, they’re comfy until they get twisted on their own:oh:.

I assumed the Perlees may be more uncomfortable than a Love..

I think the only solution is to buy the one you love most now, and make sure you will love it even if you cannot stack it with the other brand. No one can guarantee that they will fit *you* perfectly and stack on *you* perfectly. When they are slightly loose on me, they can cross, even if they seem to fit well on their own. On the other hand, some people will say that if they choose the size that is more closely fitting, it feels constricting when stacked. Keep in mind that five or ten years down the road your wrist may be some millimeters bigger or smaller, and the fit will change. So buy the one that you love for itself now, for how it fits now, and then if you can add more to stack in the future, all the better. That is my best advice.

The perlees are the most comfortable bangles I have ever worn. The shape also works for me. It’s more of a squared off rectangle than the love which felt more oval, IYKWIM.

Thank you for your advice. I think the two brands look very nice together. The perlee single row is probably the safer bet, given it's a little larger than a 16 Love, and the pavé Love smaller. But in my heart I know I want the pavé Love a little bit more :)

An unconventional thought, why not take a trip to NYC or even Vegas — any place that are likely to have the pieces you want, where there are Cartiers and VCAs galore and try on both bracelets? This is too expensive not to try on first. And you get a fun trip too.

I’ve bought expensive things before seeing IRL. Luckily, I loved them, but it is a risk.

I would get the Pave love it that’s what truly makes your heart beat faster. Also how about flying in for the day to try on all the options and then making a decision?
