How to choose the right size for a bangle bracelet?

Bangle bracelets are timeless accessories that can complete any outfit. Because bangles are worn so much and are timeless, it is important to choose the right size so that they fit comfortably on your wrist and you can enjoy your beautiful bangle for as long as possible. In this blog, you can find how to determine the perfect size for your bangle in five steps.

Step 1: MEASURE THE CIRCUMFERENCE OF YOUR WRIST

First of all, measure your wrist circumference. To do this, use a flexible tape measure or a piece of string to measure the circumference of your wrist at its widest point.

Step 2: ADD EXTRA SPACE IF NECESSARY

After measuring your wrist circumference, you can add some extra space according to your personal preference. Some people prefer a tighter fit, while others prefer a looser bracelet. For more comfort, add one to two centimetres.

Step 3: MEASURE THE DIAMETER

Next, measure the diameter of the bangle by the length of the bracelet. Make sure the diameter is suitable for your wrist circumference plus any extra space you may have added. The centimetres you add depends on how tight or loose you want the bangle to be. Below is a table where you can see how many centimetres you need to add for your desired size.

Comfort Bracelet size
Tight Wrist size measured + 1.5 cm
Normal Wrist size measured + 2 cm
Loose Wrist size measured + 3 cm

Step 4: LOOK AT THE SIZE CHART 

After measuring the bangle, you will know what size you have, and you can try on the bracelet size if necessary. This will help you see how the bangle fits on your wrist and whether it is comfortable. Use the table below to see which bangle size is right for you.

Bracelet size Diameter Bangle bracelet size
15 - 16 cm 56 mm XS
16 - 17 cm 58 mm S
17 - 18 cm 60 mm M
18 - 19 cm 62 mm M/L
19 - 20 cm 64 mm L

Keep in mind that wider bangles take up more space on your wrist than narrower bangles, that's how to make sure you choose the right size.

Using these steps, you can easily determine the perfect size for your bangle and enjoy a beautiful addition to your jewellery collection!
