Go for a snug fit: You ring should go on easy and come off hard. This ensures you have the right fit and the ring is sized properly for the finger, minimizing the risk of loss.
Seasons: Your fingers tend to change size throughout the course of the year, especially during summer and winter. They tend to swell up a bit during the summer.
Width of the band: The wider the band, the tighter it will fit, so its best to go up .25mm to .5mm size for rings with wider styles.
Go bigger in size: If you get two different finger measurements or find that a ring you wear often fits differently from time to time, it's best to choose a slightly larger ring size.

How to Find an Accurate Bracelet Size To determine bracelet size, follow the steps below.
Measure wrist below the wrist bone (where you would normally wear your bracelet) using a flexible measuring tape or a strip of paper.
To find the bracelet size, increase the wrist measurement by the increment below, based on how you want the bracelet to fit.
For: a snug fit: add 1/4" to 1/2" For a comfort fit,: add 3/4" to 1" For a loose fit: add 1-1/4"
How to Determine Bangle Bracelet Size
Simply close your fingers together, bringing your thumb and little finger together (as though putting on a bangle).
Using a strip of paper or tape measure, measure around the closed hand at the widest point, pulling the tape snug against the skin. If you are using a plain strip of paper, mark the paper with a pen, then measure the strip with a ruler. This is the circumference of your hand.
Find the hand circumference below. Create (or choose) a bangle with a diameter at least 1/4" larger than the diameter shown below.
Converting Circumference to Diameter
7-1/2" is approx. 2-3/8" dia.
8-1/4" is approx. 2-5/8" dia.
8-5/8" is approx. 2-3/4" dia.
Necklaces
Necklace measurements
14" - Collar style - Fits most like a choker (tightly around neck)
16" – Choker style - Falls around the base of the neck like a collar. Popular length for pendant style necklaces which will hang over a crew neck.
18” – PRINCESS STYLE – Hangs at the collarbone
20 – 24” Matinee style – Between the collarbone and bust.
28” - 36" opera style – On the bust or an inch or two below.
36"- 42” Rope or Lariat style - Hangs below the bust with room to spare.
Not everyone has the same neck circumference so it is important to create your own unique necklace sizing chart using this simple drop length formula: Necklace Length minus Neck Circumference divided by Two
For example, if you want to buy an 18" necklace, but aren't sure how it will fit. You measure your neck and it comes to 14 inches. 18 minus 14 divided by two comes to 2. This means that you will have 2" of room once the necklace is secured. Additionally, if the necklace has beads or a graduated design, it's crucial to keep in mind that this will influence how the necklace will fall.
