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

The necklace looks really beautiful on you and I'll never forget that day :yes:!!! The Perrier, the chocolates, the sweet SA, me getting to put the necklace on you and seeing your whole face light up...it was a very special experience indeed :tup:. So glad that I could be a part of your first VCA purchase :okay:. Hopefully I will join you in the VCA club soon! Got my eye on that bracelet I tried on that day :heart:. Congrats my dear!!! You deserve it.

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:

I do not have VCA in my hometown, either, so this visit required a trip to South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa, CA. The Sweet Alhambra pendant was $1000 and I believe the bracelets are just a bit under. HTH!

I am glad it was a fellow tPFer that was with me! Sorry, I was so excited I forgot to mention Bri333 in my original post.:shame:

But yes, she put the necklace on me and I was in a complete daze after that---could not stop smiling!

Can't wait until you get the bracelet, dear! I will do my best to enable you next time we go!:graucho:

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...
