I've never visited the *Alhambra* in Spain, but this should tide me over...

I had the most amazing experience at Van Cleef & Arpels. I had only ever been there once before but my wishful thinking got the best of me, so I returned, this time with a friend to partake in the joy!

The SA's were patient and attentive, encouraging us to try on necklaces and bracelets. They served us chocolates and Perrier. It was heaven and I was able to take a piece of that heaven home with me:

Feeling so special...

Thanks for letting me share my new obsession!:love:
 
thats gorgeous, I'm so happy that you had fun while shopping for your necklace. I think thats what jewelry shopping should be like, an experience thats memorable and leaves a lasting impression in your mind
congratulations on your new purchase:yahoo:
 
Thanks, everyone!

Candice, you are right. I think the experience and the SA were really just the icing on the cake! It reminded me of what luxury is all about; feeling special and getting something special. That experience meant a lot to me and I will be a die hard Van Cleef fan, because of it!

In fact, sometime before the end of the year, SO might become DF with the help of VCA!:love:

I'm so glad I can share this with you all. I have never been big on jewelry but I sense that is about to change. I'm already thinking about my next piece that I can layer my necklace with.
 
Very lovely necklace on your ChocoGrace! Congrats - I am sure once you start on VCA you can't stop! :graucho::graucho::graucho:

I was thinking about getting something from the Sweet Collection too for myself for Christmas, but I am not in the States and there is no store near me, do you mind if I ask which boutique did you visit and what is the current prices for the necklaces and bracelets? TIA for your help!!!:peace:
