Show me your Van Cleef and Arpels jewelry!

[yssie]

Another SO that someone decided not to take home - Magic carnelian in yellow gold. The only Magic earrings we say in all four Vegas boutiques I think!!

Too bold for me, I'll stick with the Vintage size. I definitely felt like they were wearing me rather than me wearing them. I can wear big earrings but only if they've got enough dimensionality to quell the #bold!

 

[glitterbomb]

omg @yssie I love all of your posts! Can we go to VCA together someday!

And last pic from me is of my holy grail Perlee stack The Pearls of Gold bangle in the pic is a medium though, and I really do need a small - the medium was bigger than it looks here. Sadly!

I should have ordered it earlier this year. But I didn't, for #reasons that I can't even elucidate now, and now I've heard that I can't even order it because it's on pause. Well. I heard that from one SA, and another SA in another location was perfectly happy to take my deposit, so... We'll see what happens? I know that VCA doesn't care to give all reps the same info at the same time so it seems plausible that that memo hasn't circulated to all boutiques yet. Or maybe the SA who took my deposit will look into it and tell me that it can't be ordered after all. But hey worth a try right!?

Just got these for my birthday yesterday! Rose gold to match my 5 motif bracelet, I am so excited. Next on my wish list is the matching necklace, either the 10 motif or 20 in rose gold.…
I think the earrings are a bit tight, so I am going to look into getting them adjusted.

Congratulations! Earrings and bracelet are. A great combo. RG is so low maintenance and easy to wear, and these gold pieces are hard to come by. Congratulations again!!

They’re fab! Low profile and no fuss. I vote RG twenty for those dramatic days

 

[LLJsmom]

This is what I saw on @yssie . Words fail. I just know they are alive. I have never GMOP like this. I especially appreciate that they used WG since they usually used RG with GMOP. All my favorite colors, black, white, silver with all that color shifting.

Hi VCA Tribe, got some eye candy to share from this week. Hope you enjoy.

What a fun day!! That perlee coloures between the finger ring is giving me all the feels

Happy birthday darling! These are next on my list too, to go with my yg 5 motif. These are so very hard to find. Congratulations

My prepaid RG Vintage Pave Alhambra earrings have arrived after 7weeks of wait. I supposed it was considered fast? Excited

Congrats!! I was under the impression the usual wait was several months - so excited to see yours early!!

 

[lucida818]

Thank you @yssie
I won’t be collecting anytime soon, probably end of the year as I ordered them from Paris & I am in Asia

Should I request my SA to provide me with the serial number to avoid them being given to others knowing I won’t be collecting anytime soon?
Not sure about fully paid items but I was offered items reserved for other client before.

If they're fully paid off they should go into your SA's vault and not see the light of day until you collect them!! I would just confirm with your SA that they'll be stashed away and won't handled by anyone until you're able to retrieve them.

 

[lucida818]

Thanks for info @yssie
Will do the same as advised

I KNEW paying in advance helped. I don't know why my SA insists it doesn't

Congratulations!!! 7 weeks is amazing! I've been waiting 7 months

Thank you! Love them! My DH and I went in to order them last Friday and received them in time for my bday, although my SA said it would take 4-6 weeks!

Thank you!! Yes, you are so right, I think the lure of the 20 is winning. But I will have to wait until the "jewelry fund" is replenished. It's been a huge bling year for me (all relative compared to others of course)!

I love the butterfly necklace on you. It’s such a pop. The single row Diamond Perlee looks great with onyx and Pave piece. Which pieces are you considering

 

[Missie1]

Adding more photos from Vegas

I finally got to see @LLJsmom's Ruban ring, and she let me try it on, and OMG this piece is AMAZING in-person. Y'all have no idea. Photos totally cannot capture. Video can't either. It's *so* well made, and so sparkly, and so dimensional, and so comfortable - so much for this piece

I’m loving the stack with the pearl bracelet

 

[Missie1]

This was an SO that someone rejected. WMOP in rose gold. The rose gold suppresses the greens in the stone, and brings out pink and purple and violet iridescence whilst keeping the material cool and icy. Really beautiful. Anyone interested?

I so need this piece omg. Two of these are on my wishlist. I need to contact them to see if it’s available.

Forget about price difference (after tax refund), I actually prefer to buy locally but the SAs here refused deposit & full payment saying they no longer do so, I don’t know how true?

Just hope that I can collect them by this fall.
Meanwhile should I start plotting ( secretly w/o DH & DS’ knowledge) what to buy next?
Buying VCA is damn addictive, SOS

Oh my goodness! We were away last week and I missed all of this VCA finery being posted!! I will come back and comment very soon.. I love love love it all!!
Just fast..
LLJ'smom.. The bubble ring is one of my faves and I'm so disappointed that they discontinued it. I'm always on the lookout for second hand but they are never in my size.
Oh the bracelets stacks.. the rings.. the earrings.. SO GORGEOUS!
And yssie.. I tried on the Perlee plain bangle in a small it was oddly tiny.. the medium was oddly large.

@Missie1 i think it would look absolutely stunning on you. Please let us know how it goes. I really loved it but I’m not a 10 motif kinda girl. Crossing fingers for you!!!

 

[LLJsmom]

omg those are freaking spectacular

They truly are. I’m not a RDN girl but the GMOP gets me thinking. There are so many things about this piece that attract me. Really challenging.

That’s what is so annoying and weird about VCA. You think that a certain piece will be around and then it disappears from production and then it’s too late. You just never know. Hope one shows up in your siz preloved for you.

Do you prefer 20 motif? I wanted the 20 to wear doubled or hanging like a mens tie. My SA suggested getting 1 ten to start with as i already have 5 to link. Then later adding another 10. I was planning to order ten after I paid for my Perlee. I hate oweing them too much at one time.

 

[canuk-gal]

I finally got to see this ring in-person! I've been so curious about it. It's definitely polarizing... Some people love it, I'm sure, and others hate it, and I can't imagine there are too many people who don't feel strongly one way or the other! Me, def not my cuppa, but at the same time I can kinda see the appeal?

Oh ME WANTS! It is my cuppa!!!

 

[glitterbomb]

My pave rose gold vintage alhambra earrings from xupes / vestiaire collective arrived today! It was a full set, including box, COA, the original receipt, & the original invoice showing they were purchased at selfridges in 2021 two days before my birthday I absolutely love them!!

That's really gorgeous! I can't believe it was rejected.
