Advice needed on Sweet Clover WG bangle please

Dear all,
I currently have the following VCA items:
YG Perlee single row diamond bangle
WMOP 5 motif Alhambra Bracelet
Vintage WMOP YG Alhambra earring
Lucky Alhambra earrings (WMOP with the Tiger's eyes butterfly. A bit of a repetition I know, but I love the butterfly too much to pass it up)
Malachite Vintage Alhambra Ring
2024 Holiday Pendant

Small pave Frivole YG earrings
Small pave Frivole YG pendant

My SA is recommending me to start a WG collection and to perhaps place a deposit before the price increase. She recommended a few pieces:
1.WG sweet clover bangle - Am afraid of getting scratches in the mirror polish surface and tbh not love at first sight unlike the single row diamond perlee bangle
2. Two Butterfly Pendant in Pave WG (at this price point would it better to get a sweet clover bangle)
3. Two Butterfly Earrings in WMOP (I already
4. Two Butterfly Pendant in Turquoise - brings out my skin tone but seems like a delicate stone to care for like the malachite and a little difficult to match clothes :lol:
5. Two Butterfly in Pink Sapphire (really pretty but the rose gold makes my skin looks a little dull)

Other pieces I may be considering to complete the Frivole collection would be Frivole ring or Frivole bracelets.

And at the back of my mind I would love to add a Love bangle (WG or RG) due to low maintenance needed, but would need to stretch my budget!

Any advice would be much appreciated!

Wearing 24 karat gold rings

Discovered that I would like to buy a simple 24k band ring to wear. As 24k gold is softer than the usual 14 and 18 that I usually wear, any tips?
I would like to wear it everyday, or most days. I work in an office so I don’t see myself banging it much. Can I stack it with other karats or will that wear it down? I was thinking my right ring finger so it doesn’t get bumped as much as it would as it might possibly on my pinky or index finger. I was looking at some 1.5 and 2 mm bands.
Or is this a terrible idea?

Decision time!

I am thinking about adding a MK2 or K25 sellier to my collection in the color nata or chai. I already have a MK2 in gold and a K28 retourne in Gris Asaphalt so I am inclined to get a K25 in nata. However, my struggle is that I am not sure how much I would use the K25 as my style is more casual and I think I would struggle to use it much. In that case maybe I should get the nata MK2? Do a lot of you actually use MK2 more than k25?

Hotstamp Gone Wrong

Hi Everyone!

So I know hot stamping is risky. I had many pieces before that were beautifully hot stamped. Even directly on the bag handle - they were fabulous. Sadly I lost most of my LV during my divorce (had to liquidate to avoid paying him alimony) and now nearly 7 years later I am getting my collection back. Well, buying things to replace what I had. I got this MM agenda the other day and asked for it to be hot stamped. I feel like the letters are HUGE (but that's my bad since I said large - I had confused the medium size I used to get), but aside from that the foil isn't clean like its a little blotchy and the S is crooked. Now I keep telling myself move on, you are lucky you are able to even have this piece again. But you know... haha... Does it really look that bad?

Diamond Necklace Options!

I’m in the market for a simple yellow gold diamond necklace. So far I tried on 3 ranging from 0.33 ct to 0.75 ct, from G to J color. What are your thoughts on the three below? They’re 3 different styles: simple solitaire, solitaire with a cluster halo, and DBTY with a bezel. Thanks for your help!

What are your favourite silver pieces and brands ?

Hi all,

I would love to see your silver jewellery collections and favourite brands for inspiration.

I have become interested in wearing jewellery lately. In the past it was minimal and yellow gold. White metal suits my fair skin better and I don’t want the upkeep of white gold. So silver it is! 🙂

So far I have been drawn to engraved, textured and thick silver pieces.

All Guilloche vs Guilloche & Pave 5 motif bracelet

If you were me, which one would you get and why?

  • all guilloche

  • guilloche & pave

    Votes: 12 40.0%

Hi All, I’m trying to decide which 5 motif to get. The price for the the alternating guilloche & pave is much more expensive between the two. Do you guys think the pave is worth it for its price or should the all guilloche one a better purchase?

Just to give more info I do currently have the guilloche pendant and as well as the pave pendant. If you were me, which one would you get and why?


Thank you 😊

Mini Pave Frivole Earrings in YG vs WG?

Are these different enough to have both?

I have the white gold. I'm also cool toned. But I just realised I don't have yellow gold earrings except for small diamond studs, flower cluster studs (look more formal - given to me by my mum), and Cartier juc.

I also have small earlobes so the mini is the right size for me. My lifestyle is very casual but I like playing dress up on special occasions.

Thanks!
