I've only just started working for good (thank you 8 years of study...) but THIS is going to be my most expensive purchase! I say 'going to be' because it's currently on hold for me and I'm paying off a lay by for it! I suppose I could blow a few paychecks and pay it back quickly but I'm actually glad I put it on lay by... it's making me think about how else I spend my money a lot more carefully!

I know it's kind of an old fashioned style... and I don't know how much wear I'll get out of it now but I've been looking at it for about a year!!

It's stunning! Vintage looks are more unusual and I love yours!
 
Cartier love bracelet... As a birthday present to myself!

I really had a hard time choosing between yellow and rose gold. They're so similar yet so different. I kept going back and forth and was all ready to purchase the rose gold (because that's what my sister and friend liked best) but at the last minute changed my mind and ended up purchasing the yellow gold. Still debating whether or not I should keep it or exchange for the rose gold! But something about the yellow gold just speaks to me so I'll probably end up keeping it!
 
I would wear it daily! Why not?! It is lovely. I think it is sort of classic. And funny enough my most expensive purchase for myself is also from JBEG! My OEC and French cut diamond earrings -- wearing them now.

Aww thank you everyone! I can't wait to pay it off and actually get the bracelet! :)

And LeeMiller- I love JbEG!! They have such beautiful pieces! The only French cut diamonds I've seen (granted I haven't actively been looking for them) have been from their site and they look amazing!!! Love them!

@Candice, JbEG emailed me to confirm whether I wanted the bracelet for certain since someone else was asking about it!! Was that you?
 
The most expensive jewelry I got myself will have to be my VCA 5 motif bracelet

My wife had the same delima, I got her a yellow first then she had second thoughts about the rose. To solve the problem, I got her a rose to wear with the yellow! Personally, I prefer the yellow if you're only going to wear one, but the rose looks great as a second. You can't go wrong with either color and even next to each other it's often difficult to see the difference in them. But, I've created a monster...now she's thinking a white gold would look good added to the stack! Good luck with your choice either way and welcome to the club!

Haha your wife is so lucky! I don't think I could ever justify purchasing 3 love bracelets! So it's a good thing I love the idea of wearing just one! Did your wife ever feel like the yellow gold was too much? I, personally, like the way it stands out but am worried that since I will be wearing it 24/7 I might want something a little subtler (rose gold) My only hesitation about the rose gold is I'm not sure if I LOVE the pinkish tone to it! Aaaahhh, decisions, decisions...
