Nice is an understatement! He was worth the trip!!! It was several hours of fun trying things on, including an 8ct!!! and playing with all sorts of other diamonds. If they had an Octavia in like a 7-8mm diameter I almost may have gotten it instead of my star...

Yea when we did the math on that many blocks I was like "I earned more of these chocolates munch munch munch"

Wow you are so lucky! I would love to meet Jonathan. He seems to down to earth and nice. And are you crazy? I would never want anything other than your beautiful star!

I'm like that too - I work on a reward system :graucho: More exercise = more food.

Congrats on your purchase! I've fallen in love with your VCA bracelet. Could you let me know what it's called?

Thank you! It's from the sweet collection. I think the line originally came out for young ladies/girls.

Hehe...I get the same reaction from my DF as well. He sees me constantly checking either here, the Hermes forum, or the Chanel one. He knows I'm onto something and I think he's freaking out. He said to me the other day that he thinks he created a monster ever since he got me the e-ring. I told him he's right because he's the one that introduced me to the finer things in life. :nuts:

LOL. Yeah, shame on him! Hahhaha. I feel sorry for our DFs but really, who's to blame when it's their fault that they're so willing to spoil us? ;)

You are going to open my horizons to new things!! Tell me how you came about the decision - I love it!! It looks so good all together - just when I thought your whole left arm couldn't get more gorgeous :) I love them all - I like how the VCA makes it super feminine and they all go together so perfectly!

Aww thank you lubird!! Your opinion matters so much to me, so I'm glad you like it!! Even though I love my Love, I don't like the look of it alone and I didn't feel like the sweet was doing much to add to the mix. I wasn't planning on buying another bracelet but my original plan was to eventually get another love (probably pre-owned) to stack with my current one. When I went into the store, however, I tried on all three colors and none looked right. In the full length mirror, since the designs were all the same, the bangles looked like one thick dual-colored bangle on my wrist. So I went to VCA and tried on the Perlee. It was gorgeous. The two bangles are pretty similar in width but because the VCA has the lovely perlee border, it really helped make the two bracelets distinctive on the arm. But the Perlee comes with a pretty hefty price tag and I know the price will only go up. There are barely any perlees on the resale market, so I didn't have much hope for that one.

So finally, I remembered looking at the clic-clacs a loonng time ago at the boutiques but thought they were overpriced at the time for just enamel, but a recent tPFer bought one to stack with her Love, so I thought I'd give it a shot too. I tried on the white enamel and it was love at first sight! The clic clac competes a bit with the love (it really stands out and grabs your attention) but they all complement each other so well. I am definitely done with bangles/bracelets for a while but I am glad my right arm is finally complete haha!

Ahhh my mom saw my bracelet today and asked, "what's that?! Cartier, Van Cleef and now this?!" . . . I'm going to get a lecture as soon as DF leaves. . .:shucks:

Haha... I knew it wouldn't escape your mom's eyes! How could she not notice? The bracelet is so beautiful and attracts alot of attention. I'm sorry I had passed that on to you. I just kept quiet and let them talk. :lecture: I hope your mom will be easy you. Good luck!

DF and I were in Vegas this past weekend :graucho: and after a lot of shopping (and eating) DF got me this:

Sorry for the crappy pics - I couldn't wait and I took them while I was in the car :p

DF snapped a pic of my wrist with his new bday present from me:

I actually went to Cartier and tried on the Love cuff and bracelet, but I didn't like the look of two Loves stacked with each other - it looked like one giant, thick bracelet on me. The VCA perlee went very well with the Love because it stood out more on my wrist thanks to the perlee border, but because of the $5800+ price tag, the perlee would have to be a future purchase. I went to Hermes and tried on the Clic-Clac without expecting much, but to my (and DF's) surprise (he wasn't a big fan of the bracelet before) the two looked great together!! I was debating between black or white but DF thought the white enamel went better with the MoP! He has such good taste ;)
