Any Kiki McDonough Collectors here?

I’m like you in that I also lean towards the simpler classic pieces. I just wish the prices weren’t so high! I love the Lola diamond hoop/circle dangle earrings in yellow gold but at nearly £4k just can’t justify them. Occasionally Kiki does 15% off so may wait until then to buy the Lola diamond bangle!

Oh I know about the prices. There was a 20% coupon during the early lockdown last year, but I didn't act on it. and the pound went up, too!

Worth it to wait for the coupon. I used to buy Kiki at department stores where I could because they sometimes had a "Friends and Family" discount.

Beautiful collection! It’s nice to see the lemon quartz and citrine side by side as they really are very different. I wondered if I could justify adding the lemon quartz drops as I have citrine oval drop earrings by Georg Jensen and thought they might be too similar, but they are a really lemony yellow - gorgeous!

I LOVE the lemon quartz. It surprised me but that was the first color I bought as a detachable drop. I wear the green amethyst the most, though. I'd like to get the ones with the diamond halo around them.

Beautiful pieces! Love the Fantasy line! It would be great to see a photo of your wire bracelet if you get the chance.

I’m really excited to get my ring, just hoping that it fits well as it looks quite thick with the three bands in the photo so I had to make a guess with size. I’m going to wait for that to arrive before making a decision on the Lola diamond bangle in yellow gold.

I hope it fits, too!

Me! I love Kiki too but she doesn’t seem to get much love on here as yet.

What pieces do you have? Anything you have your eye on in the current collections? Would love to see your collection!

I'm not sure. I've been off Kiki during the Pandemic because of overseas shipping and stuff, but I'm not sure what I would like to get next. I love the Morganite drops but they don't go with my complexion (but the FIRE OPALS do!).

Also, now that I see that bangle you posted, that looks really nice.

I was also thinking about a ring that is the same cushion stone as the square drops. They just introduced those last year I think.

I love these, but I don't have pierced ears:

@Onebagtoomany Please post your collection! I'd love to see it!

Did you take the "which gemstones are you" quiz on the website? I did and it turns out that mine are right for me!

I have the citrine drop huggies that kate Middleton used to wear all the time, but I never wear them because they’re not really my style. I think my clothes are too casual or not mature enough for Kiki McDonough. But I love the look on people who are more elegant than me!

Do you mean the pear drop earrings? I used to have those in green amethyst but sold them as the shape didn’t suit me. I much prefer the ovals or squares with my face shape.

Will do! I actually had a dispatch note today from Kiki regarding my Lola ring which should arrive on Wednesday, so will take a family portrait then

That sounds like a great quiz but I can’t find it! Do you have a link? I wonder what mine would be! I love gemstones so no doubt all of them

Whoa, 20%?! Am so jealous - the best I’ve seen here is 15% but stupidly I didn’t act on it either at the time. Ideally I’d love the yellow and white gold in the Lola bangle so will definitely wait for a discount.

I think the green amethyst ovals with or without diamonds will be my next purchase after the Lola bangle! Do you find the green easy to match with outfits? I love the lemon quartz too but as I have the Georg Jensen citrine earrings and a pair of yellow diamond earrings I’m not sure I could justify them

I thought the same as you with the morganite but they are pale pink rather than peach toned in real life.

The colour of the fire opals is breathtaking!

I really love the look of the Lola bangles and don’t find the price too bad for a diamond bracelet, at least compared to similar styles in 18k gold here in the UK and without the name. I’d love three in the different gold colours but that isn’t going to happen sadly!

Those earrings you linked to are very pretty, shame that they are for pierced ears. Hopefully Kiki will make some drops in a similar style at some point.

I really like the new cushion rings, they go perfectly with the equivalent colour drops! The necklaces are nice too.

I‘ve realized that I look odd in any colored gems unless they are small studs. Most of my jewelry is either gold only or with white/black diamonds. It just doesn’t match my style or personality to wear colored gemstones, especially drop earrings. The pear shape could be a factor, but I wear pear shaped gold dangle earrings sometimes and they seem ok.

It was special for overseas US, I think. If I remember correctly.
