A Question For Tiffany Lovers?

[skyqueen]

My girlfriend is having her 55th birthday. She loves the SS "Return to Tiffany" heart charm bracelet. I'm thinking of getting this for her. My question...should her BF get her the matching necklace? There is another "Return to Tiffany" charm necklace with a toggle clasp, a little different then the bracelet.
Stick with the same type necklace/bracelet or go with a slight difference between the necklace/bracelet???
What would look better??????????????????????? HELP!!!

I would go for the match set. It is a Tiffany staple.

i'm going to be the odd one out here..i think you should switch it up. im not a fan of matchy matchy especially with a design as bold as the return to line.

Thanks, AS and Candice...I'm kind of going towards the "Return" necklace with the toggle. But as AS states this line is classic and you could do a match set. I'm just afraid having something to "matchy" might be too much for someone in their fifties. KWIM???

I do not think so. Years ago, before I got my Tiffany toggle necklace (talking about 10 years ago- got mine in 2001), I saw a woman in her 50s/early 60s wearing the toggle and matching bracelet. She wore it with a suit. She looked so chic to me. If you do not want to go too "matchy," here is an alternative item (this is the necklace I have and the woman wore). It is the same toggle without the rtt stamp. http://www.tiffany.com/Shopping/Ite...c+-r+-x+-n+6-ri+-ni+0-t+heart+toggle&search=1

^^Oh, AS...thats the toggle necklace I'm talking about. But I would buy her the "Return" bracelet with the hanging charm. That bracelet has an identical necklace but I thought the toggle added a little pizzaz! I have to let her BF know so we can get our act together! LOL!

They have the same necklace with the rtt tag hanging- http://www.tiffany.com/Shopping/Ite...-r+-x+-n+6-ri+-ni+0-t+tiffany+toggle&search=1

I have the plain set; I think it is awesome.

if you do decide to do the set, or even mix it up I think it'll be a good idea to co-ordinate with her BF not only one but two! tiffany presents!

Just got off the phone with the BF. We are meeting at Tiffany's tomorrow. Easier for me to choose when I see the items in person. I'll try on both necklaces and let him choose. I know she'll be delighted and that's the most important thing!!!
Thanks, Darlings, for all your help and enthusiasum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NP- I am sure she will love it!

I have the RTT bracelet and chose the RTT toggle necklace to go with it. I just think the toggle necklace has a bit more oomph than the "true" match.

 

[Candice0985]

good luck shopping, either way she'll love both presents

That's what I'm thinking...thanks, Kitsunegrl!
