My Blingathon Pick me Up at Joe Escobar

It probably won't be done till New Years :(... I waffled a little to long on deciding between all plat... rose gold... and then a two tone. BAH.
 
Gorgeous pieces Gypsy, thanks for sharing! My favorite are the rose cut pear diamond earrings :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: Just WOW! And I love the antique cushion ring!
 
Gypsy! Thank you for the eye candy :love:

I absolutely love love that rose cut flower pendant... In fact dreaming of how it would look on me :Up_to_something:
 
Awesome! Thanks for sharing. The earrings were my favorite!
 
Hi Everyone.

Claire, I knew you'd been in and that you found your stone but I didn't realize the Mimi and SS had gone in with you! That must have been fun-- I can't wait to see SS's ring once it's all gussied up and re-shanked!

Swingirl, Erik really is just best-- so outgoing and upbeat and you can tell he loves his job! Makes the experience that much better.

D&T -- it was very pretty and dainty. I don't remember the exact price. They do it in white and yellow and pink though. Maybe it's on the website? Ahh I just looked, if it's the same size as the one listed it's 2,000.

Sarahbear, I don't remember at all honey, sorry! If you wanted to inquire you can always just call and ask. They were the only rosecut earrings I tried on so he'll probably remember.


Yenny... yup, always nice to see how the other half lives.

Pheonix, yes I actually *DO* know you don't have a 5 carat RB, but I KNOW that if you could find the right one at the right price you would be ALL OVER IT. ;))

Skippy, they really are! They are so down to earth and enjoy sharing all the goodies. Very generous.

pregcurious, LOL. When I was planning on posting this in Hangout, I knew the regulars would take my word for it, but since I decided that RT was the right location... since I tried on a bunch of settings and that's much more an RT topic... I knew there would be newbies and I didn't want them to think I had lost my mind. LOL. I just sold SO MUCH of my yellow gold off, and I'm right here with you loving the warmer metals again. I think that maybe I didn't like the YG pieces I had and that in order to love it, it has to be the right design, kwim?
 
Looks like an awesome trip! Such good bling.

I was actually at Joe Escobar last week! I was quite surprised because the sales personnel were essentially ignored me. I was quite surprised! Anyway, I left thinking I'd not go back, but your experience has changed that!

They aren't pushy so they don't approach. I just walk in and say, "Hi is Erik here?" if he is he comes out. I've never NOT had him there but his wife works there too, if I wasn't able to catch him I'd ask for her. I've been helped by the Owner as well, he was very nice too.
 
Oh, what a very fun trip!!! :appl: Thanks for sharing pics of these gorgeous pieces!!! :love:
 
Wow. Wow, wow, WOW. What a blingalicious trip!
 
thank you!! That was fun! :appl:

I fell in love with the first setting!!! Beautiful. :wavey:
 
Wow, great bling! I am not sure that would make me feel better during a tough week. I think I might be a tad depressed that I couldn't bringit all home with me!

I love the little rose cut flower pendant!
 
What fun! Glad you got a pick-me-up! :appl:

I love that first setting you posted. Just, WOW. Also, that 6 mm PC looks huge! There really is a lot of surface area in those corners!

I agree, it has to be the correct style, just like with white metals. To me, yellow gold looks best when the warmth and softness is brought out, instead of the brassy/shiny character of the metal, if that makes sense.
Have you seen ABGFs YG thread?

Gypsy you just had my DREAM DAY!!! (of course, if Jimmy Smits were there with my - helping me to decide and nuzzling my neck with sweet nothings the whole time... now *THAT* would be my dream day for certain!) :cheeky: :naughty: :Up_to_something:

Thanks for sharing those awesome photos and descriptions --- can I book a day to hang out and play with you??? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ooh, what a fun trip! All of their stuff is just fab, isn't it?! Next time you head there you'll have to let me know and we can go play with the pretty sparklies together!

Claire, you're gonna make my ring blush saying such nice things about it! 8) Thanks!
