I’m still looking for earrings this year. I want a pair I can wear casually, daily. I already have the Alhambra sweet pave studs which I LOVE so much. I just want another pair or two to swap for some change. But I am paranoid about the weight of it dragging on my ear lobes. Goes without saying I worry about my piercing being stretched as well. I love my vintage Alhambra studs and they don’t hurt or feel uncomfortable at all. I’m just paranoid wearing them. I wish I could find an in between size pair. I don’t own a single pair of stone Alhambra ear studs. I wonder how much those weigh...

what about the mini pave frivole?

For 2021, my plan is to revamp my current wrist stack. :nuts:

I've always stacked a lot of different Cartier pieces but I think I'm honestly over Cartier right now - especially the Love bracelet. So my wishlist will look like...

Full size Perlee Clover bracelet
Small size Perlee Clover bracelet
Perlee Pearls bracelet (got it!!)
Perlee Signature bracelet

I think that will be a cute place to start with a new stack. :loveeyes:

Oh - and definitely the Vendome pendant if I can manage to get a hold of one. :shucks:

EpiFanatic you're in the same boat as me, I'm looking for something VCA which looks great for every day wear. I like the idea of the sweet pave earrings but as a tall person, I'm worried they'll look a little underwhelming on me? For the amount they cost, I want them to be eye catching without making a loud statement if you know what I mean. I don't have a VCA near me so I'd have to order online and I don't want to make a mistake with the hassle of returning them if they look lost on me.

I am thinking about exploring Cartier pieces. Could you please share why you are over their pieces? TIA!

I would say it's very subjective. :flowers:

For me, I have been wearing Cartier pieces for over a decade now, and my left wrist stack of various Love bracelets has been my 24/7 signature staple for as long as I can recall. So the novelty being gone may be very unique just to me, personally.

But outside of this, I see a lot of fake Cartier and even worse, fake stacks all over the place now. I don't really like this association.

Lots of influencers and other people who post a lot on social media have at least one Love bracelet, if not more. So the luster and exclusivity has really worn off for me. :shucks:

For me, the Perlee bracelets are less known.. but those who do, really get it! I'm also over Cartier's pricing. My girlfriend and I have been toying with picking up full pave Loves for a while, but at $50k, I can buy two Perlee Clovers... and they have a higher carat weight! So I guess it's the combination of wanting to move on to something new, and wanting a unique stack of bracelets that you don't see all over the place. That's all. :)

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
I want to add few edgier jewelry pieces to my collection and I am considering JUC regular bracelet with diamonds and Clash bracelet.

Hi, I’ve got the YG pave Vintage earrings and pendant (both purchased in December 20). I’d like a bracelet and yesterday I brought the Agate 5 motif (It will get adjusted next week) I can’t help but think I should have got the pave and guilloche bracelet.
Does anyone wear the pave earring, pendant and bracelet (pave & guilloche) together? when I had it on in store it looked great but I wondered if it was too much, so I wanted to tone things down a bit.
the black onyx isn’t right for me, it’s too edgy (accord to my 19 yo daughter), also unprompted the SA said - not good on me. I showed my 18 yo daughter the agate and she said it’s a hard color to match.
Any tips? Recommendations? Inspiration?

Agate is wonderful and goes with everything! I LOVE mine!

For the first time in a few years I am actually a little confused over my wishlist... okay maybe a LOT confused! :giggle:... I need to do a lot of brainstorming before pulling the trigger!

Considering adding 1 or 2 pieces from the following: Maybe I will get more clarity in 2021 as to what I really want!
- malachite magic earrings
- single row diamond perlee ring
( matchy matchy in me says get the above two and complete my sets since I already have malachite magic pendant and the single row diamond perlee bracelet)
- 20 motif hammered rose gold (but I keep thinking maybe for that price I can get a pave piece?)
- frivole pave earrings and/or pendant. I want rose gold so I might have to wait a while.
- a btf ring in rose gold. I love the idea of having one but I need to be sure of it’s wearability since I have a habit of gesturing wildly while talking! Oops! Imagine the ring coming flying off or me banging my hands and ring on things, which may or may not have happened several times before:rolleyes:

Sigh! Shoot me! And I thought Hermès was a tough path!

Sigh! Already revising the list! Got the magic malachite earrings and perlee signature bracelet in RG late last year so this year it will be either the frivole or the white mop and diamonds butterfly BTF ring! I think :girlsigh:A381DCC8-0A3D-43D6-A734-C00F0F2ECA4E.jpeg77667447-CFE1-4D6E-B20A-EAFA7E5B6C50.jpeg

Have you tried various stacks at each boutique? Go to Cartier and wear your dream stack, then do the same at VCA and determine what makes your heart sing. <3

I live in Pacific Northwest. We don’t have Cartier here and the VCA in NM closed last year. Either I need to travel to figure out my Cartier stack or need to find a Cartier SA who would be patient enough to send pics of few different stacks.
