To determine your wrist size, take a flexible measuring tape or piece of string and wrap it snuggly around your wrist at the wrist bone. If using a piece of string, mark the string and measure it against a ruler. This is your wrist size.
If the length of the bracelet is given, add 1-1.25" to your measurement, and that's your bracelet length. For children add only 0.5"-0.75".
General Guidance for Bracelet Length:
Small 7-7.25" (petite frame)
Medium 7.5-7.75" (average frame)
Large 8-8.25" (larger frame)
X-Large 8.5"
If the inner circumference of the bracelet is given, add 1/8-1/2" to your measurement. How you prefer your bracelets to fit is entirely a personal preference, however in general, adding 1/8-1/4" to your measurement will allow comfortable movement of the bracelet along your wrist.
General Guidance for Bracelet Inner Circumference:
Small 6-6.25" (petite frame)
Medium 6.5-6.75" (average frame)
Large 7-7.25" (larger frame)
X-Large 7.5"
As with all jewelry, how a necklace fits is going to depend on you. Below is some general guidance to help you when making a decision, however you should also measure the size of your neck to determine how a particular length will fall.
14"- Sits at the collarbone, slightly longer than the choker style
16"- Sits between the collarbone and breastbone, the most common length
18"- Sits at the breastbone
