Clover, do you add 1/2 an inch or 1/4 of an inch? Kachina said add 1/4 of an inch in her post. I have a 6" wrist. Clover, you would wear a small if that formula is correct.

Sorry, yes, the formula is 1/4", I made a typo.

Measure across your palm, then double it, then add about 1/4" and that's the size you'll need. Once I put them on, I leave them on for months, even years at a time. I've got 8 on right now.

Have you posted this before? I had no idea there was a formula!

Don't get too excited. I have a lot of experience with bangles and that's the formula I came up with to get them over my hand. Once I get them on, they're large because I have an 8" hand but a slightly under 7" wrist. I end up with about a 1 1/2" "drape" which I'm accustom to so it doesn't bother me in the least. If I were to buy a hinged bangle, I'd get a 7 1/4".

This is why I, like a broken record, keep asking them to give bangle diameters when presenting them.

I love round bangles, stopped getting them when they went to oval since all sizes of the ovals turn on me and end up poking up and down on my wrist, terrible look. I do have a small wrist. I also love the way the round bangles roll and love the little sound they make when I wear more than one.

Sorry, can't answer your question, just wanted to say I love round bangles.
