New subtle stack to accomodate my new T&Co silver cuff... The crown charm was actually one of my first two charms that I bought at Pandora over a year ago, but it got lost on Christmas when I took it off to put on one of the charms I got as a gift that day. So I finally replaced it last week and used some of those rubber clip holders Pandora gives out to hold these charms in place on triple leather bracelet. I think I might buy another triple just to wear by itself so that I don't have to keep assembling and un-assembing them.

My other bracelets as of now... the themes are My Favorite Animals and a Few Of My Favorite Things, haha. The dog, Moneybag, and Elephant are new. I'm gonna wear a bracelet on my left hand with my Apple Watch when I finally get my replacement one back from the AppleCare/The Genius Bar.



I bought a Rose bracelet with rose clips and a rose heart with CZs too but I'm returning it, as much as I like it. I rarely wear rose gold and its just too expensive to have taking up room in my jewelry box. I'm deciding on one more charm to help weigh down my Favorite Things bracelet though!
 
Missydora :drool:

I do remember your odd one, is very pretty!!!

Thank you for sharing all this pictures, so Gorgeous!!!
Very cool and unique!!!

Yes, the first picture look similar shade to mine.

All four of your Murano's look gorgeous!! Pretty bangle! I think you are making everyone on here lust for the purply Blush Muranos like yours :D

Very pretty!

Thank you everyone :smile1: I feel I've done a in depth review of the Blush crystals over the last 2 weeks :blushing:.
 
So lovely bracelet, Beautiful😍

Thank You!! :D I was unsure of the clips on it and had a silly notion that my two tone bracelet needed to have all two tone charms on it...but its not really about that i realized, its what makes you happy and charms that hold special memories/meaning irrespective of what materials they are made from.
 
My almost finished Two Tone Pandora! Let me know what you think ladies!!

Your two tone is so lovely! I love two tones is my favourite, I have 5 charms same as you :D Im also going to get the white pearly version of the abundance of love when it's out in the uk it looks gorgeous on real life photos. But heard it will be available in UK as part of Valantines collection :nogood: hope not otherwise going to have to wait.

Thank You!! I hope it's available sooner in the UK, although i have not seen it in person, from the photos i already love the 2015 Abundance of Love charm! Curious, about the two tones we have in common? ;)

Good looking stack:smile1: wish I could wear the leathers, my wrist are too small for them :sad:

Awww! The teddy represents my brother (lives in the same country as you), abundance of love - my marriage, purse - my love for handbags and the fact i love saving and see my money grow, the heart - my mum and finally the frog - my hubby( the literal meaning of my name is a flower, and the frog has the petals engraved on its back, it was a must have!). Pandora does it's two tones nicely, i wish i had started with Pandora earlier, missed the boat on some lovely two tones...

You have same meaning's on some of your two tones same as mine. I too love the frog!! He's so sweet got a smiley face. Hes always placed centre of my two tone bracelet. I'm avid collector of their two tones, it's a shame they retire so many, agree Pandora does nice two tones.:)
 
I've not been the bicester outlet yet. How much are the Pandora charms reduced by ? I love the moss charm for its texture. Sometimes there are Pandora flash sales on Achica, there was one about a month ago, but it wasn't that good , muranoes for £15 and string bracelets with the silver clasp set of 3 assorted colours for £25 I think it was, but there wasn't any nice charms. So not missed much.
Republic of Jewels have 70% sales at the same time when Pandora does the 50% ones in the new year so its really worth getting up early for that one! I'm mainly looking out for gold and two tones would love that peachy dangly that dynasty put up on the page of gold retirement charms. Talking about republic of Jewels they have a outlet bit on their website there's a few charms on there I wouldn't mind. But can't buy them if its the Ireland website in euros there so much cheaper they don't let you checkout if you have GB address. They have and English site with outlet but it don't have the same charms as the Ireland site. Just pendants and earrings :nogood:

I realise I didn't answer this one!

Thanks for the tips Missydora. I have purchased from the RoJ outlet but missed out on the sales sadly. Might sign up to Achica. Not sure if there are any other membership sites that have Pandora sales?

Re: Bicester; it's a bit hit n miss. I went with a friend near Xmas time in 2014 and they had quite a good selection of gold charms and gold spacers from £36. All I bought was one gold spacer (I'm still looking for another to have a pair)! They also bunch up charms and bracelets and sell them that way for less. Anyway, hubby took me there for a b-day treat about a month ago and it was so disappointing. They didn't have much stock at all and were impossible to get hold of on the phone beforehand. Those who wished to buy the yellow or white gold pod rings and earrings would have done well, but in general not much choice. Still, I managed to buy these (had the leather bracelet already minus the charms) and got the Moss charm as a freebie for buying the necklace.

Discounts are good and as long as they get more stock in the lead up to Xmas, it will be worth the visit. There were so many charms retired this year, I was really hoping to see them at Bicester.

This is how I wore mine today. Illustrates how low it hangs down my hand. It's about as far as I like it to go.

From your first picture the top one is bracelet and bottom is bangle?

One thing I noticed between bracelet and bangle is the bangle always is bigger compared to bracelet even they are the same size.
Here is my picture of bracelet and bangle, both is 19!!!

But your last picture, the bracelet it is looks big on you

Missydora and Ladies,
Don't you think my blush look brown instead pink blush???
This is natural sunlight picture I took this morning around 10am, I like the one similar to what Missydora got😰

This is in dark day light

Anothe close up..

Such pretty bracelets and heavenly combinations ladies! This thread has seen some serious eyecandy over the weekend :loveeyes::faint:
 
Your collection has grown significantly since last year :D you have so many goldies now??? They go so well with the muranoes you have, well chosen. It's very classic and elegant looking black and gold.
I'm still thinking about whether to get the midnight muranoes as I have never tried dark blue, not sure if it suits my skin tone. Going to see if the fascinating iridescence looks OK on my wrist first. I think the midnight muranoes look better with silver and sparkly charms than all the two tones I have so will mean me getting quite a few beads to complete the bracelet. It's going to take ages and I'm wondering if I got the patience :D and forgoing all the other beads I want to get. I tend to buy new beads that I know will go with what I've already got you see.

I got the goldies with black detail (x2) during the winter sales in 2014 and had one of the gold chsins gifted to me for Christmas whilst I got the other half price. The rest are from 2013. It all adds up. Like you, I wait for the opportunity to get them; I bought a couple at good prices at the Heathrow Duty Free believe it or not!

My Oldest daughter moved to Harrow in London 2 months ago, I'm thinking of going to Bicester enroute when I go visit her. I live literally over the road from one of those designer brand, outlet village. I so wish they would sell Pandora. You've picked up some nice rare pieces :)
