Choosing between VCA designs is always a wonderful problem to have! Definitely second Yssie's suggestion of trying things on in-store, as all our ears and faces are different.
For me, I think the starting point is what occasion(s) are you thinking of wearing them, and how careful are you with your jewellery?
If you love the YG mirror frivole but not the clip (I'm in the same boat), have you tried on the mini or the large? I personally adore the large for how bold they are - the mirror bounces light like crazy and I prefer this effect to the subtler pave version. The thing stopping me from getting them is I already have a similar sized pair of earrings in YG and can’t justify both.
Regarding the WMOP, it's beautifully iridescent but the stone is too delicate for a klutz like me - I know they will get scratched, and I won't be bothered to take them off when I shower or sleep. And it sounds like you're getting the WMOP because everyone else loves it - but do you actually love it?
Just to flag - I have the same ear clip issues with the Vintage size, but not with the Magics. If you're thinking about wearing the Vintage vs Magics interchangeably (i.e. you'd wear them for the same occasions) then I think the Magics are worth an extra $1200 for (1) the presence, and (2) not seeing the ear clip.
However, I wonder if the real question is whether you'd prefer Alhambra or Frivole
Here are the different sizes on my ear (note that I don’t own any of these, just tried them on in store!)
These photos are SO helpful!!!!
Well - they’re helpful for everyone else - you can wear anything marvellously so less helpful for you Pomelo
