We've seen some beautiful pieces from the new collection on the hands and wrists of beautiful members. Lanit, that CdC is the perfect weight between delicacy and statement.

I was able to view several more pieces from the Mors de Bride collection this afternoon. One was the most stunning bib-style necklace with multiple chains (the longest can be attached or not depending on the grandeur level you're going for). I didn't expect to adore it, but when on, I fell in love immediately. It did not come home with me (it's quite cher), but some amazingly fortunate woman will have this in her collection.

I also saw the other pendant style necklace which has more of a square-ish effect. I'm not sure about its weight . . . it would need a body structure different than mine to make it shine.

And finally, I saw the earrings. The one pair arrived just as I was sitting there, which was fortunate indeed as a clamoring has begun around them. My SA was so kind to pull them fresh out of the packaging. I wasn't sure if I'd be wooed . . . but as soon as I saw them on, I was over the moon.

They are smaller than I anticipated them being, but very sturdy, and the feel like air when worn. And when one walks, they shimmer! These are the perfect more-casual companion to the Licol earrings from last spring's collection. Mors de Bride GM earrings.

Sorry ladies...hit the wrong button on my phone...
I took this picture at a stop light and the other getting in the car. I love the way silver gleams in natural light. I keep admiring this lovely CDC. I have been wearing it for a few days now and I am really loving it. The perfect size, the perfect weight. Very well designed. Thanks for the inspiration Lanit!View attachment 2941209

This is gorgeous! Love the this size. I never see it in person, could I ask a stupid question? How do you put it on? :p

Alas, they *are* what I would call terribly expensive. The price of a shawl here. If I'm frank, I think the cost of the new collection is unseemly, but the pieces themselves have wholly won me over so far . . . As soon as you touch these earrings, their *strength* of material almost stuns. Plus, as you describe, they are arty but classic too. Chic. I've had my name on the list (first in line) to see them, but I worried they would be trendy, which I don't like from Hermès—so I expected to decline them. Instead, I was immediately captivated.

The pendant is trop cher also, I believe—but they both, together, simply look like they've always been part of me. So I'll get it. Not quite yet, but I will.

It's a shame about those TGM Loops. I remain wholly in love with them. There's nothing like them out there, so I hope a pair finds their way to your shore.

*Sigh* I half expected as much. But, expensive and worth it is different than simply expensive. Just think, in comparison a CDC bracelet that is not real silver is also a similar price. I think that puts into perspective these standout, statement earrings in terms of value.

I am ever hopeful of finding my TGM Loops. Why did I not buy them when I first saw them in Monde? It just completely slipped my mind and because I kept seeing the smaller version I had no idea the TGMs were limited :smash:

I think the silk square (I am not affiliated) has a pair for sale. They would be great on you, pt. I have a pair as well. Arabesques was the inspiration. Apparently, these are designed by J.P. Gaultier :smile1:

I didn't realize the TGMs were limited! I also didn't know they were designed by Gaultier! I certainly treasure mine—and now that I chopped 10 inches off my hair, I can wear them more easily. (Note: My hair must have been so very long that no one can tell 10 inches less of it, because no one has said a thing in the past two weeks. But it does make a difference for easy of wearing the hoops with that huge bar).

Alas, isn't the pair on the Silk Square the smaller ones? If not, certainly grab them as they have been beautifully kept.

No, I'm wrong—it's the TGM size, I just asked the woman who runs it.

Thanks for enquiring arabesque

I bet your hair looks gorgeous, even though I loved it on you very long. I often have my hair up, esp when I wear larger earrings but I think big earrings can look very romantic hair down too, even within a mass of mane :D

I signed up to SS for notifications ;)

YOU ARE ALL SO WONDERFUL :kiss:

Earrings are fab, awesome, stunning --- arabesque can I ask what they cost and what is their name? They are so unusual.
