Ok! I still haven’t got the hang of a selfie, but this is what I have so far.
That’s a good question. I was not the person who ordered this, from what I know of her she has a huge VCA collection (she is also super nice).

B, these look absolutely amazing! You have been patient and found just the right pair for you! I can’t wait to see what else you have in mind!! Enjoy these in the best of health!
 
I guess me saying it like that really does makes it seem that way(!), but in my mind the two pieces are a set...the dealer had both and I was always sure I’d pick these earrings up first, but it was tempting to take the other piece first instead. Actually, her having both pieces available made my decision to get these easier for me....so, it’s more like part one of two. :graucho::graucho::graucho: Yes, they sit higher!

I love the way they sit flush without dragging or turning inward... It looks like you were born with them on and/or they were custom made by VCA for your ears only. Absolutely stunning... I need VCA to send you an endorsement deal for you to be their feature model. How would you like VCA to compensate you, in cash or VCA items or both ?

I love these! I like them more than the regular magic. Wish these were available as regular item.
 
Wow. These are amazing. Phew. I’m having trouble breath. And they are perfect on you. Enjoy them so much!!

thank you!!!

Those earrings are beyond SPECTACULAR!!:heart::heart::heart:

How fortuitous that you got these SO ones. I can't wait to see what you pair them with!

ETA: I especially love the way the backs open up. One of my complaints with VCA earrings is that you really have to struggle to squeeze your lobe into the tiny space between the Omega back and the front/ the earring. Having the Omega backs pushed back far like that makes it so much easier to put them on, I'd imagine. I also love the positioning of these - I sometimes think mine hang a little too low even though the posts are already on the lower hole.

Thank you!!! Yes, I do like these backs, much easier to put on. Also, they feel lighter, too. I got very lucky finding these, I had tried on both the wg and the YG magic MANY times. WG just doesn’t look good next to my face. I probably would have gotten the YG eventually but as soon as I saw these I knew they were for me - I tend to prefer things that are just slightly different (I wear a Love bracelet that almost no one recognizes because it’s not one of the usual ones).

Stunning. They look great on you!

thanks so much!!!

Yes yes, yes, J!m - I am particular about the height of earrings,and the way they sit on my ear. I can’t wear some of the smaller VCA because I can see the bottom of the clip on my ear (pave frivole), and they don’t seem to sit properly. It’s probably also the reason why I tend to prefer larger earrings, the size visually compensates for any unevenness.

and I will absolutely take that deal! I’m not greedy, just compensate me with VCA :graucho:

Congratulations!! I have been going back and forth between vintage and magic size, these are absolutely stunning.

thank you! Happy to enable!!

I love these! I like them more than the regular magic. Wish these were available as regular item.

Thank you! I agree - I don’t know why they make them differently.

LOL NotoriousPink... if you are anything like me... VCA would come out cheaper by just giving me money. I have a laundry list of items I need and want from VCA. I have a lot of VCA by other's standards, but not and never enough VCA for my standards.

You are my kind of different... I am the same way.

I really love the classic size and sparkle of the Vintage Alhambra pave. It truly goes with everything, I had the single diamond onyx and they are beautiful, too, but I didn’t keep them. I don’t have unlimited funds so I have to make choices - it’s just that sometimes I have to live with something for a while first before I know whether (even if it’s something I love) it will get enough use to be worth keeping. Ultimately I would like to have a nice mix-and-match variety but not too much. (3-4 pair earrings, 5-6 necklaces, and 1 or 2 each of bracelets, rings and brooches...and maybe a watch!)

I completely identify with this! I often have to try something out for a bit to see if it is really for me; whether seeing it makes me smile, whether my husband gives positive or negative (unsolicited) feedback, whether I reach for it often or not, and when I do wear it do I take it off part way through the day? I admit to being less decisive than I would like to be, but that has ended with an unexpectedly loved item equally as often as a mistaken purchase! It’s good to hear that you favor the classic VA pave, I don’t think I would/will regret that addition. Other than that I probably have enough VA earrings. Do you still have your PG VA earrings, if so, when do you see yourself choosing the VA vs MA pave? Those were SO only when you purchased them I believe?

I sold the VA pair. I loooooooved them but I probably won’t reach for them now that I have the magic. They were an SO but I was not charged a premium because they became regularly available not long after mine came in,

I don’t know if I will own another pair of VA. Maybe the guilloche as a more understated pair, but that would be way down the road. The only other earrings I have on my list are the malachite/pave three motif and maybe pave frivole.

That is sensible, you would probably reach for your magic pave out of the two and it leaves room for the malachite/pave without too much overlap. I’m glad to hear that you weren’t charged the SO price for the PG pave since they became available as a standard item! You had such a good attitude at the time when they became a regular item, not regretting that you may still have to pay the SO markup, I remember that you were very serene and had an admirable attitude. The whole thing seemed to work out for the best and your collection keeps getting better :)

Thanks so much....yeah, it’s easy to stay positive when I didn’t have to pay more! ;)

This is quite an amazing piece. Do you plan on wearing these as your daily staples? They are super fabulous but seems still so wearable on you. I know you wore your RG pave VA almost daily right?
