Thank u so much for your wonderful thoughtful advice!! I only buy black bags so definitely safe & boring has been my thing. Carnelian is a bit of an adventure for sure - I guess I'll either fall in love more or shy away as time goes on. As far as beauty goes, this def stole my heart at first sight.
As a black bag person, I totally get your thinking! The key to remember is, almost no one who loves VCA will stop at one bracelet! No, I do not think carnelian goes with everything. But it is a wonderful beginning to a collection! Add a neutral like onyx or guilloche next and then you have options depending on what you are wearing!
