I know how you feel! There are so many gorgeous bangles out there that just slide off my wrists when I put them on. *sigh* I like the Etsy suggestion here!!

I usually get the adjustable ones - the ones you can squeeze to tighten? haha I hate how some bangles go all the way to my elbows. So unflattering.

I agree with our admin! Vintage is absolutely the way to go. I get ALL of my jewelry (and I mean all of it) in the antique shops in Cold Spring, NY. Most of the time the prices are very low, and there are plenty of small-sized treasures to be found. I found a beautiful, sophisticated little gold watch that fits my toddler-sized wrist perfectly (my favorite find!), a beautiful pearl cluster ring that fits my size 4 left middle finger, a beautiful silver necklace with a short chain, and much more. I also get adorable black vintage gloves there for no more than $5 a pair.

For some reason, women must've been built smaller back then.

I'm drooling over your finds! I need to go antique shopping more often!
