Agreed - this is certainly much brighter than my 2012 blue porcelain . Have they lightened the color with the blue porcelain releases since then?
Oh dear I am so sorry I did not see your question. These are pretty and I think Rose Gold suits me but it does change the colour of the gray MoP. I was hoping for a more grey/ WG look. The Rose Gold tends to make the MoP appear brownish. That's just me and how I see the colour, my opinion only.
MY DH also thought the rose gold warmed up the color of the stone a little too much for my skin and hair.. I was really excited for grey MOP and often love rose gold in general. Sadly it seemed to blend in too much with my coloring when put near the face. I would still consider adding the bracelet at some point. I felt the pieces were stunning IRL, but I could not carry it near the face.
I get you totally. The earrings would also have been lost in my hair as it is would not contrast much with my hair colour.
It’s worth seeking out additional pieces to consider.
When I purchased my gray LE holiday pendant and my three stone magic earrings, I considered several pairs before making my selection.
Some gray mother of pearl can appear very warm- taupe with pinks and oranges while other gray mother of pearl can appear very cool with blues and violets.
I’m the same. Somehow PG and GMOP blended in too much on my skin tone. WG onyx stood out more. It’s surprising given PG with white MOP and PG with letterwood suited me fine. My store knows I don’t like GMOP with flashes of green so they picked ones that were the most taupe pink of the bunch to present to me. Yet the set presented still looked sickly green. I think it has to do with the contrast of setting GMOP on PG. The pink in the gold downplays any pinks in the stone and in contrast brings out the green.
Thank you for the encouragement!
I will surely check out a few more pieces! The bracelet is definitely on my wishlist!I know what you mean about the flashes of green... that tone won't work for me either. The earrings I tried were AMAZINg off.... sultry shades of pink and purple flashes, but once put on my ear, the Magic ended. Pardon the pun.
Your assessment of what happens with the color is identical to what my DH believes as well.
I finally went in and tried on some of the new pieces and have to say I am absolutely smitten with the GMOP bracelet. It looks fantastic on my skin! I did not expect to love it, but it definitely made my heart skip a beat. I just wish it wasn’t only offered with the pavé because I think I would also love a plain GMOP bracelet. What to do?
Just buy this one if you can.
Once you go pave, it’s very hard to go back.
The bracelet is gorgeous.
I think you may be right! The pavé definitely takes the bracelet to another level.
