Has anyone else fallen out of love with the Love?!

[Carinecrd]

This may be the wrong forum to ask I know and apologies Mods if this question has been asked, I couldn't find it.

I used to be obsessed with the Love bracelet, purchased the cuff and wore it for a few years before purchasing the bangle several years ago now..

I swore I would never want to take it off and absolutely adored it. But over the past 18 months or so I have gradually fallen more and more out of Love with it.

I took it off a few weeks ago as I purchased the small JUC which I'm really enjoying alone. It's early days but currently I really don't want to put it on again! I think it's partly that it feels like everyone I know either has one or in the case of my work place a fake one. I'm just so over seeing it everywhere.

I'm still hoping that I'll fall back in love with it in a few weeks / months and that this is just due to getting something new, has this has happened to anyone else?

Please don't come for me.. I know a lot of people love it and it can look beautiful on them, but curious to know if I'm alone here on this?

I think that it just because you saw it too much, and also depending the reason of the purchase. If it's a sentimental reason, you will love it forever as it associate to a feeling.
I am more or less in the same position as yours; I love my love bangle, but after few years, I find it a little bit boring but it's maybe due to the oversee on social media too...
I will add a Chaumet Bee My Love bangle soon to highlight it
But also thinking about the classic JUC !

Exactly! I bought it myself after seeing it by chance on a lady in a jewellers in Brighton. She explained to me what it was and I became obsessed with getting one. This was before I had an Instagram account or spent much time on Youtube and I'd never looked at the jewellery forums on here. It was almost certainly popular already but not to the extent that I see it now.

It's become the jewellery equivalent to me of Bryan Adams "Everything I do" . If you're not as old as me or from a part of the world this song wasn't popular then this will make no sense at all!
Lets just say the first few times it was played on the radio it was great, after about four months of being on several times a day every day I never wanted to hear it again!!

Of course I knoooooow this song...ahahaha
I am almost 40 in 2 weeks (oh gosh)
and the Chaumet BML is my motivation to pass this step

But just ask yourself if YOU still love it, do not be influenced by the social media, because of course it's not the real life...It is the same for Hermès bags, everywhere on social media but in the street...not common at all !

Personally, I love mine (regular YG), it may be ’basic’ but this is such a sturdy beautiful classic piece and I’ve become so comfortable with it, I forget it’s even on my wrist!

I’m planning to acquire another Love (with diamonds) for my small stack
(I’m also eying a JUC but undecided on size )

Mine is meaningful as my now fiance purchased it and locked it on my wrist. I love the meaning behind the bracelet and what it signifies for he and I.

My first Love bracelet, my husband purchased for me back in 2008, and he screwed it on himself. I had it for 7 years and then it literally broke (long story), so I ended up selling it on eBay because surprisingly, someone still wanted it even though it was broken, and still made a profit.

Then after he passed away 3 years ago, I bought a regular and a small Love for myself and had my daughter screw them on. But like I mentioned before, I sold them because they were just too big on me. I probably need a size 18 now (they were size 20), but I'm going to wait until I buy another one, make sure I'm at my goal weight before I do—about 20 more lbs.

I had the regular love cuff and wore it for about 15 years.
I got tired it and sold it.
Soon I missed it and bought the xl love cuff and I’m happy I did.

I got the small Love for my 30th birthday & I wore it pretty much 24/7. On my 35th birthday we bought 2 small JUCs which I wore stacked with my Love for about a year (towards the end of my pregnancy they became too tight & I had to take them all off!). Weirdly, at the moment I’m really enjoying wearing them all separately. I saw photos of people wearing the Love on its own and it looked so beautiful, I kinda missed that look. I have very small wrists (my Love is a 15, my JUCs are 14) so even alone, they still have presence. Right now I’m wearing my non-diamond JUC but I’m going to swap it with my Love this week & I’m looking forward to enjoying it solo again ❤️I can’t imagine ever falling out of love with my Love because it’s so classic but I think I’ll change how I wear it over time

Just a little (ok slightly long!) update for this.

So given that I have no patience and feeling like this was a lot of money to be just sitting in a safe I decided to sell my Love.
Popped it on ebay (UK) so it would sell through the Authenticity Guaranteed program. A buyer made an offer and I accepted.

Honestly the minute I accepted it I thought "Oh goodness what have I done!" I posted it rather than cancel the sale as it just felt wrong not to, but oh how it hurt my heart to take it to the post office!

I then spent the next few days feeling lost without it, I may have been bored with it but it had been a constant for the last six years and had an engraving that was special to me. Choosing not to wear it was one thing, but knowing it was gone forever was something else indeed 😢

It went to the authenticator and all ok with regards authentication, BUT it turns out Ebay UK will not let you sell an item of jewellery without a UK Hallmark! My bracelet was made in Italy and I purchased it in France...So no UK Hallmark.
Ebay sent it back!

It arrived back last Friday, went straight on to my wrist and is absolutely staying!! I feel like I dodged a bullet there, talk about absence makes the heart grow fonder!
Thankfully the buyer was very understanding, so no harm done and I now have a renewed appreciation for my 'almost' lost Love

That is a beautiful story! Sounds like you are meant to keep it.

Wow it’s like reading a love novel.
It’s meant for you to keep definitely. I find this very romantic actually.
Congrats on the beautiful reunion.

I loved mine and wore them 24/7 without any regret. The only reason I sold them (I had a small Love and a regular Love) was because they were way too big on me. They were both size 20, because at the time that I bought them, I was 60 lbs. heavier than I am now, and even then they were too big, but didn't have the heart to send them back or wait for an exchange. I'm very impatient, so I just wore them. But I sold them both early this year. I don't regret it, but I still check my right wrist to see if they're there. It's so weird. Like a lost limb lol. But I do plan on buying another one (just one) in a few years. I'm in no rush.

That is the best part you can wear these everytime I mean I just want jewellry pieces that i can wear anytime literally

I used to own 2 cuffs long ago. I gained weight and sold them because they were no longer my size thinking I’m no longer interested in the love collection. 3 years passed and I felt something has been missing in my bracelet collection. I bought a new love bracelet 2-3 months ago. My love has been renewed.
