Most standard bracelets are 7 inches.

I think the best way to measure your wrist would to be go to a few local jewelry stores and try a few on.

If you feel funny about doing that and want a home solution, perhaps you could cut a piece of yarn or string?

Agreed. You can just measures your wrist with some string. But as for what the "right" carat size is, the only one that can know that is you after you try some on!

Yep, try a few bracelets on. A few months back I tried on a standard size tennis bracelet (not sure if it was 7") and it was way too long for my wrist. It would have had to be shortened to look good.

The one I looked at was 2 ct tw and that size seemed perfect. I guess it depends upon what you''re looking for and what your budget happens to be.
