Some of you might know my love for striped tops with shorts. Well, striped tops are not only for the summer! :biggrin: :heart:
Below is my new favorite striped cashmere top. I wear it with skinny jeans. I love it so much, I ordered two! :nuts::heart:

But wait.. there's more... my new WG Clover arrived today. :yes:
It fits looser than I remember, and I love it! @glamourbag , I am so glad we talked about this, and I went with the medium like you. Thank you!

My arm doesn't look like a log as it did when I tried it on. If it does, I'm in denial as I love the bangle so much, I can't see my log arms. Who cares anyway as it's all about the bling! :biggrin: Here are photos of the bracelet with the Lotus and Frivole. I also did a closeup of the bangle to show how loose it fits.

Congrats on your lovely new purchase! It goes so well with both your rings. I always thought that it would be too much bling to wear the clover with pave rings, but it doesn't. It looks a really beautiful pairing. And no, I don't see any logs there, just lovely jewelry. Goes so well with your sweaters too. Enjoy your new piece!
 
My 3 wish list rings are lotus, noeud and yg pave btf frivole. Gives me one of each gold (noeud is wg and rg) and a range of looks.
I think you should wait and see if vca releases any new rings as non of the current ones are right for you (besides hellebore, what a disappointment). They seem to release a few bold rings a year.Otherwise for sure try the two butterfly ring. The butterflies themselves are perfection. The portions of the wings are so elegant. They were the original design that drew me to vca but then I never actually looked into getting a piece from the line.
Yes, I need to wait and see what else comes out. I think I will also try on the jumbo butterfly ring again. When I tried it on at the boutique last time, those antennae were scary! The ring size was also very small, so I couldn't even put it past my knuckle to truly see how it would look on. I wish I could clip off those antennae; butterflies are supposed to be cute, not spooky. You may recall I posted a photo of it. It's a very scary butterfly to me, but maybe I can man-up and deal with it. :biggrin:

I love your ring wish list. They are beautiful pieces, each with a very different look, but all are stunning! It would be a gorgeous VCA ring collection!

I forgot about the Mariah butterfly ring. I have no idea why you think it is scary. It is a gorgeous piece. You should definitely try it again. I also love the birds of paradise ring but it is discontinued and my Paris said they would not make one. I was too late to the party. I am still confident vca will release new rings and that one will catch your eye.

That carnelian in WG is really crispy! I love that contrast. I like your dark nails too. I've been on a Mannequin Hands nail polish look, but next week when I get a manicure, I'm going back to my dark Rouge Noir look! Your photo inspired me! :tup:
Thank you. This is a home job. You should take a pic with the new manicure when you get it. I go in phases with nail polish. Months without and then a straight month on and then another half year bare.
 
Thanks for your help everyone especially @BigAkoya - I returned the nine motif pure gold necklace and got sweet Alhambra MOP earrings and guilloche bracelet from the store - they said it was an anniversary edition or something. You talked me out of going for the mop 10 motif necklace from a pawn shop :smile:. Now time to save for something else!

They look stunning on you! I'm so glad you got the guilloche bracelet and MOP earrings. You are also lucky you got the guilloche so quickly; there are folks on the wait list for that piece. It was meant to be yours!

Love your photos... and while I can't see a full face shot, I just know you have an ear to ear grin!
Congratulations! I'm so happy for you! :hugs: :heart:

First off I love the sweater. Now to the business of this fabulous clover and ring combo. It’s absolutely stunning and the ring just compliments it perfectly. Your taste is impeccable as always. Which earrings are you going to wear with this combo?
