Love it!!! :heart: You have a killer stack. It will bring you so much joy to look at these days. That’s what I do anyway, Parade around my house with all my fav jewels while rocking my corona sweat pants. :coolio::panic:

Thank you. I never imagined myself wearing 1 love bracelet let alone 4 love bracelets — but they are truly comfortable to wear 24/7. Surprisingly so.

Stay safe, and continue rocking those jewels and sweatpants! I know I certainly do. :)

Should I add WG diamond or WG rainbow next? I love the rainbow, but another multicolor might be too much. I also have an alternating diamond thin YG and regular YG, but don’t wear them as much lately, usually more with non-Cartier actually. I had been wearing more VCA bracelets in recent years, but with constant hand washing and disinfecting trusty Cartier is screwed back in place for the foreseeable future and I want to add something a little different next.

Here are some photos I found online of each option (not my photos). The huge stack doesn’t have both of them, but with the white gold alternating diamond it is easy to imagine what the white gold full diamond would look like next to the rainbow.

Once I have the next one, I may add back the thin alternating diamond in between if it looks nice.

So gorgeous! The Bvlgari looks so edgy next to your loves. Do you still wear your WG (I’m forgetting if you have the WG rainbow or the WG diamond)?

Hi! Thank you! The serpenti has become my favorite piece of jewelry that I own... you have an amazing memory! I have a WG 4 diamond love. I only recently took it off (during lockdown) because for some reason I felt like it weighed heavy on me. I think wearing jewelry is very much a mood thing. Plus, i wanted to see if I missed it being off. I’ve been wanting to add a Pave love... (in the distant future lol) ... just wondered if I’d miss the WG.. i do..will be adding it back on shortly. I think the 4 diamonds look stunning with the rainbow. I also LOVE the rainbow WG.. so im no help. The only thing is, with two rainbows would you be missing the Cartier screw motif?

I know exactly what you mean! I find myself doing the same thing, especially now when I have time to burn and am looking for fun projects. Trying out new jewelry combos definitely fits that desire.
I really love your set with YG and PG with diamonds and precious stones, and the flash of WG and diamonds does add something. Both are awesome looks, sometimes I like more diversity in my jewelry and a little bit of contrast in color to make each one stand out. Sometimes I prefer a more monochromatic stack of PG and YG for an elegant look.
I do think I would miss the screws with all stones...or at least I used to strongly think so, and that is why I held off on buying the full diamond. But I really want both the full diamond and have newly fallen for the WG rainbow.
I wasn’t as interested in the WG rainbow before because I have the 3 diamond love ring in WG and absolutely hate how grey it became. I haven’t worn it in years. Then I got the rainbow love ring in WG as a total fluke (on vacation and wanted to get something) and I remembered how shiny and sparkly WG can be. My SA told me I could have the WG replated with rhodium if desired and that was a game changer because the WG looks nice only when it’s really white and shiny in my opinion.
I would love the pave also, it’s the best of both worlds with screws and diamonds, but I doubt I have the discipline to limit other purchases to make that happen anytime soon!

I also think that being in this crisis has made me crave more fun and frivolous things. When I got back to normal work and things calm down, there is a fair chance that 2 rainbow bangles will be a bit too much cotton candy on a daily basis. I work in medicine so I have to look somewhat trustworthy :)

Hi!! WSounds like you really want the 10 diamond.. I would stick with that!! But it also sounds like the WG is a no no for you. Even if you can replate it, I don’t think you can do it frequently because in order to replate it they have to buff it smooth (removing some gold) ... for what it’s worth, my WG 4 diamond hasn’t really turned grey at all... to be honest, I am kinda annoyed lol.. I wanted it to be a little darker for more contrast :rolleyes:

I think you should definitely buy what you think you will love/use 1-2 years from now... once this is over will you still love the Cartier stack? I’ve bought so many jewelry pieces and unfortunately some
End up being very expensive mistakes. Im trying to be really good and really careful with my purchases going forward.. I really want that pave... gonna have to save for awhile. But it will be worth it!!
