Amazing!! Love pink MOP! Yours is very pink. I wish they would release it in their normal jewelry collection for the non-watch forward people too.
I was offered this one today - yay or nay???
I have pure alhambra bracelet and love it completely!

I love your taste, and I think these are the best presents! happy birthday! Wear everything in the best health and happiness
@missie1 , just saw it was your birthday too! happy birthday! I adore everything you have chosen recently Esp. your turquoise and your gorgeous bling !
I think this is very pretty! I like the thicker chain on pure alhambra. If this was your first 20 motif I would say get the classic but you already have multiple 20s in classic line. So… I would say if you like long necklaces why not
plus it would fit very wellwith bracelet and you can make it longer or doubled up 
Thanks so much. Still can’t believe I own the turquoise. Smile every time I think about them.I love your taste, and I think these are the best presents! happy birthday! Wear everything in the best health and happiness

Yea for sure if you love it and will wear it. Will be awesome with your pure bracelet.
All our jewelry and luxury items are just materialistic goods, and truth be told, the happiness of luxury goods is a fleeting moment, for when we put it on or stare at it.Thank you! That is incredibly kind of you to say
My husband is incredibly generous, but something like a birthday gift just never crossed his mind. If he did buy me jewelry, I would probably want to choose it or at least give him a short list to choose from, so it works out OK that I just choose for myself. Also, since I gravitate towards discontinued or hard to find items, it is nice that I can purchase something immediately while it is available, instead of waiting for his gift timing. Honestly, the most amazing thing about my husband is that he is so respectful to my parents and so generous with them. My mom is extremely talkative and when she visits I just wander in and out of the room as I quickly reach my limit. He will listen to her stories for hours, and then I will come back upstairs an hour later and he is still listening and offering her more tea and sweets. My dad is weird and spontaneous and chooses to live about an hour outside of the city, but enjoys the social life of the city still. (Both of my parents are in their early to mid-70s). My dad is known to suddenly and randomly call at 11pm on a weeknight and say that he doesn’t feel like driving home… My husband is already halfway out the door to pick up some dinner for him, it doesn’t even cross his mind that my dad should not stay at our house for days on end with no warning and no plans at all. So, all in all, I don’t mind the lack of jewelry presents, what he offers is so real and precious!
It's how we live our daily lives that really matter and warms our soul. My husband and I will say to each other, we'd be fine if we lost everything and lived in a shack because we will be happy having each other.
My husband is similar to yours.
Your husband is the perfect husband. He's the true unsung hero. There are no flashy gifts for which he wants to take credit for. His quiet and kind actions speak millions. A true gentleman.
Yay if you truly love the Pure 20. It's pretty, and it will match your bracelet.
Nay if you only think you want it because it's hard to find but not crazy about Pure in a 20.
If you only want one YG MOP 20, I vote VA MOP. If you think you may want to layer your other 20s, for me, I prefer matching VAs than to mix and match Pure.
However, you plan to just wear your Pure 20 with your Pure bracelet, I vote Yay!
Either way, Pure or VA, I vote getting a MOP 20!
I could not agree more, and how beautifully stated. What a lovely sentiment to start the morning with.
My birthday presents are always from me to me. My husband says, “It’s not part of my culture.” Ok, whatever! That’s what my fun money is for, sometimes I feel like I work more than required 1/2 for altruistic reasons and 1/2 just to add to the fun money fund. My feeling is that when I work more on top of my normal job expectations, then that money is mine to have fun with!
I was able to track down and add a 5 motif green chrysoprase bracelet to my 10 motif necklace and earrings set. The color of the bracelet and necklace match perfectly! They are a forest green color indoors and bright green in outdoor lighting. The earrings are a brighter shade, but I love that because it complements my coloring next to my face (cool toned, green eyes, light black hair).
The other purchase was totally accidental, but I thought, “Why not?!” (This is my usual jewelry motto, as those of you who know me already know). Sometimes that theory works out magically, sometimes it ends out to be an item that does not work for me at all. My only regrets are the items I missed out on. I never regret trying something and learning more about what works best for me. I have never though about sweets, but I this little sweet piece came up with the paperwork and receipt, and I though it would be a very cute layering item since I am not so into single pendants. I will send it into VCA this week for a second verification, so here is a quick photo for now.
Thanks for letting me share
Happy, happy birthday Nicole and congrats on your birthdays gifts. It’s best when you can gift yourself, because from what your wrote, your hubby’s gifts are invaluable
