    Could you find out her preference under some pretext of a girly chat, maybe tell her that you're going to a 'do' and you're not sure whether to wear a bracelet or a bangle, see if she says anything? Or that you're thinking of what to buy, say, your niece or cousin as a present, who are the same age as her, and what does she think they'd prefer?
