Has anyone purchased any of the Bony Levy (non-diamond) 14k items? Liking the oval hoops and a couple of the chains but go down the rabbit hole wondering if I can find something similar cheaper elsewhere.

i got my sister bony levy earrings Last year in gold and they were lovely. I think it was a good buy vs going on a treasure hunt that wouldn’t have had a huge difference to the bottom line. As an alternative, I do save for and shop Roberto Coin jewelry and have a few pieces that I love. Probably not cheaper but in love with the brand.

in shipping news today, my Paige jeans shipped but my Pendleton pillows got cancelled. I think I would have preferred the pillows lol, but we’ll see what happens. I did wake up to MV earrings I was stalking pop back in stock and I ordered them so that was a win - they went out of stock right after ordering so we’ll see.

Hi ladies - has anyone purchased or is familiar with the Kwiat Diamond earring studs that are part of thr sale every year? I went into thr store Thursday looking to buy the largest size, thr 1.5 carat studs. They didn’t have them in store but one of the associates was very nice and helped me order them. They just arrived and they look like they came directly from the vendor. I’m looking at thr invoice and the size says 1.4ct stud, with no other information (quality if Diamond or platinum vs white gold). Anyway I realize the description online says “carat size is approximate”, but a full 0.10 seems far off from the approximate range, would you agree? I paid just over $2,000 to upgrade from the 1.25 size. I feel somewhat cheated that the $2k only got me another 0.15. Would you return and insist on receiving a pair that is closer or at the exact 1.5 size? So disappointed, especially after waiting all day and evening for ups.

Yeah I would insist. For something like that, they should have the exact measurement available for your particular pair. It’s not that hard to do, it’s not like they’re selling thousands of the earrings a day. Blue Nile has a great system for this. I would absolutely complain.

Thank you. I honestly wouldn’t expect this from Nordstrom, sort of a bait & switch situation I’d expect from less reputable shops, so I was second guessing myself. i will give customer service a call.

Just unpacked my sweatshirt in black. It isn’t as amazing as last year’s, that’s for sure! The exterior fabric feels more like workout gear. Whatever dye they used is also VERY strong! I threw it in the wash so maybe that will help. Keeping it because it’s still great for running errands and the inside is soft.

Yes, workout gear! Why do you say that about the dye? Did any come off? Let me know how your black washes up. Would appreciate it!

.1 is a lot!

I would suggest going back to the SA who helped you too. Sometimes customer service over the phone is not great at dealing with something like this. Kwiat makes beautiful jewelry, hope you get your earrings!

Are you referring to these hoops? 14K Gold Medium Tube Hoop Earrings

I picked up a pair in-store yesterday. They are a nice size (not too large for my small ears) and seem well made. I think the clasp is secure? I will wear them around the house this week to get a feel. I don't wear larger hoop earrings, but these were a bit different and I thought they were pretty versatile (could go dressy or casual) and would look nice mixed with other earrings.

My only complaint is both hoops had price tags on them and removing the stickiness from those tags was a chore. Still have to check to make sure I got off all the goo. I have jewelry wipes, which helped. It was NOT a fun chore. Not sure if they all arrive like that, but the ones on display were a bit sticky, too!

Mine are on the way, curious to feel the difference. The ones I have feel cottony on the exterior.

Neiman Marcus will adjust prices and give you a credit when stuff like this happens. I’ve never had to try with Nordstrom, but usually 100-150 refunded on something if this price range. Worth a shot?

For reference I ordered a small YSL Lou Lou and they sent me toy at the toy price. They misdescribed and refunded like 125. I also had a ring sent in the wrong size and they were sold out so they gave me 150 to cover sizing

Now everything from my original friday order has shipped minus one top which showed as backordered when I ordered it. I have a few items that I made separate orders for over the weekend still showing as getting ready over the weekend. Overall I have to say that is a pretty decent turnaround IMO for my Friday order to have shipped everything minus the item that was backordered. I did not pay for expedited shipping because I’m too cheap lol. I can’t wait for my items to come.

 

[Lynzee]

My small order I placed on Friday at midnight is still getting ready, but a few small orders placed by an SA have all shipped. I did notice that all orders I have recently placed show August 2nd as the delivery by date, are you all noticing the same thing

Tom Ford Anouk sunglasses in brown are going to be returned later this week. They are too geo-shaped for my face.

I ordered the BFD floral throw in faded rose, but received the solid color in faded rose and this is going back.

I can’t seem to locate the Aquis towel duo so I’m still stalking it.

Has anyone received the BFD namaste lounge set? Is it worth stalking and how is the sizing?
Thanks!

Check your local TJ Maxx for Aquis turbans and towels. There were many available a couple weeks ago and I stocked up because I haven’t seen them in that type of store for many years. $9.99 each vs $40 for two in the sale.

I got my Kwiat studs in the mail today (only 0.25 ct), and the size on the invoice is correct. You are missing a good chunk of ct there! Maybe it's just a typo? Hopefully you'll get some sort of confirmation that your earring size is correct.

For some reason, I thought these earrings came with screw backs, rather than posts, but the description on mine does say post back.

Yes, workout gear! Why do you say that about the dye? Did any come off? Let me know how your black washes up. Would appreciate it!

I washed it and used a Trader Joe's lavender dryer sachet so it smells okay now. Don't think it faded or anything in the wash. The inside is still soft but this year's "Amazing" sweatshirt is just a "Whatever, I guess it's soft and it does have pockets" sweatshirt. I get they are cutting costs and all, but don't mess with the best sweatshirt, Nordstrom!

Also, I think it's the black dye that smells strongly, because I purchased some of the men's Zella lounge pants for my SO and his pants still smell like dye after a wash!

they didn’t provide authenticity card of clarity, color, and size? I would expect that at the price point. I would definitely complain.

The Reiss Coat was available in all sizes at the Denver Cherry Creek Store. I was there just before closing so they should still be there tomorrow morning.
