Bracelets, bangles, cuffs and charms come in so many variations. We choose a style based on personal preference and we choose a style based on need. A simple silver bangle may go just right with your personal style or it may be the most you can wear to the corporate office. Then there are times when a more elegant bracelet is needed to compliment evening wear or to enhance that perfect-fitting black cocktail dress. Perhaps, you are an elaborate personality and just love to wear a fabulous bracelet even to the supermarket!
The key here is variety. Variety is in demand. It's needed by all women and men regardless of their income! Thankfully, costume jewelry, sterling silver jewelry and cubic zirconia jewelry can allow us to feel and look fabulous keeping up with the trends without making us broke!
Many of us aren't quite sure what size bracelet will fit our wrists, especially when shopping for sterling silver and costume jewelry bracelets online. A linked watch can be adjusted easily by a local jeweler but bracelets often cannot. However, you can simply measure your wrist with a string, mark it and then lay it next to a ruler or use a garment measuring tape in inches, since most bracelets sizes are shown in inches. Make sure to add ¾ to 1 inch to your measurement to allow for needed room.

If you don't have a ruler handy you can go by some general rules. If you are petite, slender etc. you can safely purchase a 7 inch bracelet to fit properly. Many bracelets are sized at 7 ½ inches and will also fit properly with a little needed room. If you are bigger-boned or plus-size you can most likely sport an 8 inch bracelet comfortably. Do not stress though! When purchasing a bracelet, bangle, cuff or charms from Portia Jewelry, keep in mind that if it doesn't fit properly, you can always exchange it!
