Clash de Cartier

[glamourbag]

If you could have only one piece from the Clash line (except rings) - what that would be?

The diamond clash bangle. Not spotted often on peoples' wrist, but it's lovely.

I love my medium bracelet so much. I want to add the necklace for Christmas but if I had to pick one item it would always be the bracelet.

Thank you! How did you decide on the medium size? I am torn between small and medium. I have love and juc regular sizes in bracelets but i tend to wear my bracelets separately… i want this to be a bracelet on a constant rotation 24-7, not a special occasion piece

Hmm. So I'm dying for a Clash set, was convinced the RG Clashwould work for me since it's so subdued, as I'm otherwise strongly partial to YG and some RG looks too pink on me. Of course I like the option of stacking the YG VCA or Cartier pieces I have with the Clash, but with this news now I'm hesitating.

Since their RG Clash is really more RG/YG and quite subdued, will the YG be STRONGLY yellow? Or will it be too similar to the RG to really show a difference?

I think they blend just fine. Here is my YG rainbow love vs the Clash.

Another comparison:
YG onyx VCA
RG VCA perlee
Clash
RG pink sapphire Love

However, VCA RG in general is much more rose than Cartier rose (and doesn’t fade to yellow as much as Cartier RG does). The VCA RG Perlee is so small that it blends with any color. You can see how the VCA RG sweet 16 looks more rosy than any of the others.
In my opinion, the Clash matches everything well since the gold color is a subtle blend.

Clash small bangle. Also the small ring.

If you wear a size 17 LOVE bangle (regular), would you be a size 15 or a size 16 in the Clash (small) bangle?

I’ve read the size 15 is perfect if you want the bracelets to line up without overlapping but noticed a lot of people only size one down from their LOVE (eg. 17 LOVE, 16 Clash). Why is that?

For those of you who only went one size down, can you please confirm if the bracelets do in fact overlap? Any examples/pictures of the Clash overlapping would also be amazing.

I am trying to decide which size to get but won’t be able to make it to a boutique before the price increase and don’t want to risk buying the incorrect size (already did that with my JUC) and have to go through the whole exchange process.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you this is super helpful. Based on this photo the Clash looks nearly as yellow as your YG VCA/Onyx, especially compared to the VCA RG sweet.

Is your Love YG?

So it makes me wonder even more....what then is the point of a YG Clash line, if the RG Clash is already "yellow enough"? I mean if I have a YG Cartier JUC that I might want to stack it with....is the YG Clash going to be yellower than that?

Glad to help! The rainbow Love is YG, the pink sapphire Love is RG.

I’m an 18 in the love and tried both 16 and 17 in the clash. I ended up with the 17 because the 16 felt way too small on me. I don’t have any overlap issues. My 18 love is pretty roomy though which is how I like my bangles.

It was easy for me to choose- I don’t have a Love so this was my first bracelet. I planned to wear one bracelet solo and was between the regular JUC and a clash- the medium looked much better as a stand alone. In a stack the small might be nice. This is a pic of the small and medium together to give you an idea

I have not purchased the Clash yet but I wear 17 Love bracelets and 16 JUC and I was fitted for a 16 Clash. I’ve tried both 15 and 16 Clash and could wear both but the 16 fit more comfortably and I did not have any overlapping issues when I tried it on since that was also my #1 concern, I wanted absolutely no overlapping. 16 should work for you! (:

The Clash is the same size as the JUC, both one size down from regular Love. I have the cuff so it’s two sizes down.

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Clash! Is yours the Medium?

Your stack is amazing! I love the diamond bangle - would you mind sharing the specs?

Thank you so much for replying hun - I truly appreciate it!

My JUC and LOVE are both size 17 so I can’t stack them without the JUC going over the top of the LOVE (so they are now worn on separate wrists). Ideally I would want to stack the Clash with the LOVE so I don’t want to make any more costly mistakes regarding sizing - overlapping was my main concern. Did you try on the small Clash?
