Dear VCA lovers,
I am fairly new to the VCA club but wanted to share my humble new purchase, the 2019 holiday pendant! Found it at a consignment store in brand new condition with sticker still attached and I am over the moon! Pictured next to my RG grey MOP ☺️
Hoping to add the 2021 holiday pendant whatever it may be!

Thank you for letting me share.
My first vca item, debating between sweet and vintage 5 motifs mop bracelets.
May I ask if anyone wear it like this? I wear size 15 JUC bracelet. I’m afraid the motif might be easily damaged but also not sure if I have it shortened it will fit better. Having 2 links cut may still be too long for me.

Some people do but it’s probably best for you to get links remove to fit to your liking

Hi Congratulations on your first VCA! It's beautiful.
I would shorten it. The dangle makes it look like the bracelet is too big on you, which it is (it's like rolling up a pair of pants that are too long for you vs. really hemming them). The dangle also makes it seem like you are trying to make it look like a charm bracelet, but it's not a charm. You can see the end loop dangling so it looks sloppy and takes away from the elegance of the bracelet. That's my opinion, and of course everyone has their preferences. I would also get the 5 motif vs. Sweets. Sweets is really really reall tiny as the line was made for kids. Also, I think the classic Vintage size is more buildable for a collection and long term use.

The bracelet is beautiful; I would shorten it to keep it's beauty and elegance. Make it fit proper on you. For a 15 JUC, depending on how tight you like to wear bracelets, you may need to take out four links. Seeing how tight you are wearing it in the photo, I don't think two links is enough for what you want, so I think four links and maybe six. VCA has these sizer trial bracelets you can try on to choose your fit. Hope that helps. Congrats again!

Thank you very much for your suggestion. I agree it looks best when it fits also afraid of damaging the dangling motif. I just know about the sizer trial bracelet it’s a relief. I will get it resize this week. Thank you again for your kind reply.

If you remove the links, do they give you the links back ? What if I want to hand them over to my daughter but sizing is off.. can they just add the links back ?
Yes to both. You get your links back. I had my shortened by two links and got them back.
Also, if you ever lose these extra links, no worries. you can get new ones if you ever want to lengthen. The SA told me it's not a big deal if you lose/misplace them.
