May I ride along this thread please?

I'm contented with my right hand wrist which has reg and sm love. And i don't remove them on daily basis. The only thing i remove daily is my rings, if I do wear for that day (except for my e ring and wedding band – sometimes I even switch them between hands, depending on my mood lol). I have Clash ring and sapphire ring which I also happily switch between hands.

I like now to add a second bracelet to my left to pair with my tiny VCA. I tried before to pair my VCA with Love and I don’t like it because the VCA goes under my Love which drives me nuts. I like how dainty and pretty the VCA is on my wrist (this is absolute my fav jewelry + sentiment story); and a daily piece.

Toying the idea of adding a friend to her that I can wear daily. I have had gone to store to try these with her : Chaumet, Bvlgari, VCA, and of course Cartier. I don’t want something too “statement” that overpowers her (like Bvlgari Serpenti although it’s in my wishlist; for times when I need a big bling).

Can you share what may work for my case? Especially in case I’ve missed out brands/styles since I’m new to fine jewellery.

Some ideas I have :

1/ tennis bracelet (I love those mixed shapes diamonds as I personally prefer so to uniformed diamonds for this style)

2/ Chaumet Bee My Love (bangle or the flexi bracelet)

3/ Cartier Clash bracelet

4/ another VCA? I’m not too versed with VCA yet; my VCA was a birthday gift (I did try on the Vintage Alhambra bracelet, 5 motifs all YG oh dear I like it but my baby VCA disappears).

How exciting to build a new stack. I am wondering do you plan to wear a watch on this arm as this plays into balance for the stack. This is dainty piece that I would stack with few different options depending if a watch will be in play. Also do you prefer a softer feminine stack or more structure like your loves?

Hi missie1,

My watches only see light like once or twice a month max, as I don’t really feel a desire in wearing one. Therefore watch would be the least to consider.

That’s something I ponder too – as in soft or structured look. Initially I wore my love on left. Halfway, I switched to right and it then felt perfect for me. My left is my dominant and the structured love got in the way for me. I think a softer stack works for me with my VCA. Somehow these both are in my consideration as they don’t look so rigid like love. It’s more flowy. Thanks for sharing your advice!

Thanks! It certainly looks dainty and pretty, though I have not considered mop (another) nor onyx.
I like gold and diamonds :smile:

You can definitely add the 5 motif in all gold or the gold and Diamond version. A tennis bracelet or diamond station bracelet. It just really depends if you want this to be the only VCA piece.

*frantically googling "diamond station bracelet".
I never knew that's what it's called! :blush:

Thanks. I think what you've shared sound workable for my stack.

Another question for you, does the Bee my Love bracelet scratches your Cartier love? I really love the combo and am considering getting the bee my love bracelet. Thank you!!!

I just checked and not really! Honestly I rarely look at the “bottom” of the bracelet but it looks pretty good for being sandwiched between two bracelet

May I please ask one more question? Do your love and bee bracelet are in the same size? My small love is in size 17 and not sure what size would I be for the Bee my Love bracelet. Thank you!!!

Hope you don't mind i chime in.

BML runs a little bigger and if my observation is correct, the shape is different from Love (when i tried at the store, i wore the BML alone, not pairing with Love).

I am size 15 Love, and tried on 150 (smallest) for BML. It definitely feels looser than Love.

So i reckon has to size down for BML.
