If you live in a fashion conscious city people are more likely to know what you’re wearing but may never compliment it beyond a generic “love your jewelry”.Here in NYC, Cartier is very widespread, so most people won't "compliment" it. But a lot of people will "eye" it. LOL But I'm like meh, don't care. I love what I love. LOL
That's actually the translation.I recently had someone ask me if my JUC was “just a nail”. That really cracked me up!
Same! When my loves were new I got compliments from people left and right for a week or two- I think just due to the shine. It’s when they have a patina and you get a compliment that you know they just know. Still pretty rare in the Midwest and I’d prefer it would stay that way!I do get complimented on my love bracelet. We don’t have a Cartier in my city, but we should, and usually when someone sees it and recognizes it, they comment (positively). I often get a “nice bracelet! *wink*” from other people also wearing a love, almost like its some secret club or something . It’s a little cheesy, but hey, they are spreading positivity, so I graciously accept.
Of course, I’m aware. The person that asked me that question was completely unfamiliar with Cartier, so I thought it was pretty ironic considering that’s the direct translation for JUC.That's actually the translation.
This reminds me of the time I complimented a customer at a diner I worked in college. She had two stacked love rings and I was like I like your rings. And she looked at me all condescending and was like they're Cartier.I got my cuff shined. I wore it too work and a girl loved it. She never heard of Cartier.
Lol reminds me of mother in law. I went over to clean with her and she was like oh that's a cute little bracelet. Maybe I'll get one. I didnt say anything because i knew she would freak about the price.I’ve gotten a few compliments when I go into higher end jewelry stores, other than that my friends have no idea what jewelry I am wearing which I don’t mind because they would die if they knew what they all cost.
