This is exactly what I realized! You had mentioned it before, and you are so right! It is perfect for stacking, easy, blends in well while still being beautiful in its own right. The regular clover needs a more deliberate and curated stack to look balanced. I am still playing with ideas! I have gone around in circles with the color, I think likely RG or YG since most of my other bracelets are warmer golds, but I do have more pieces in WG now, so I will need to think for awhile and look at so many gorgeous photos for inspiration.
I also love how the sweet Perlee is same width as the love bracelets. It’s a tough choice definitely but I’m thinking same metal as your ring. Then those two are your sweet pieces to mix in separately or together

That is exactly what I said to my friend! It would work so well with the love because they are the same width. Thanks for advising on RG, it makes sense to have the RG sweet pieces matching, most of my loves are also RG (though less pink than VCA RG of course).

It will work perfectly with RG loves as I find VCA rg very close match to Cartier’s rg. My loves are in gold so I never wear with the sweet. I need to probably repurchase them in rg but I’m always working on my VCA items.
 
You are so sweet! I don’t have it yet actually, but I will certainly add a photo if it comes into my life soon :heart: I need to order all of my items remotely, so I need to decide on what I want before I try it on for the most part! I think either YG or RG, but all 3 golds are stunning!

Here are some of my pictures trying on the sweet two different visits to the VCA boutique, if you missed my post.
My hubby and I knew she was the one to definitely save for :blush: then the savings will start for the sweet pave earrings … a lot of patience is key:facepalm::girlsigh:

To me she was so comfortable and fit like a glove (size small 16). Loved her with my diamond tennis bracelet since tennis is wider than her. The two together sang in harmony :giggle:


Excited for you!!!!

Just wondering, Do you already own the regular size Perlee clover bracelet?

I did try on the sweet Perlee clover ring but it was just to big looking for my finger, my hubby disliked it too on me. I was disappointed because it looks so beautiful on others!
Yours looks beautiful on your finger.

I know what you mean, my Cartier and VCA collections seem to be on a rotation; focus on one, then the other and repeat!

Thank you for sharing the photos from your try on, the sweet perlee looks perfect with your tennis bracelet. I will be the first to cheer for you once you add it to your collection!
I used to have the clover, its a long story, but I used to wear my bracelets larger and had a stack of multiple bracelets matching Love size 17. Over time my bracelets moved around so much that one of the Loves suddenly fell off (luckily I found all of the pieces in my car) and it had to be sent to France for a year to get a new screw system, and over that year of waiting I decided to go down to my actual size which is Love 16 (still not super fitted on me), and changed over my whole stack to the smaller size for Cartier and VCA to sit with the Love 16. So now I wear Perlee XS, which is perfect because it keeps the looser Love 16s from sliding over my wrist bone and onto my hand. I just tried out Perlee Clover size XS, and while the fit is technically perfect, something looked off, especially next to the Loves. I think the Clover looks nicer a little looser due to the greater width, but I don't want to repurchase Loves in size 17 again just to be able to wear the Clover in a looser bangle size. I would like to try the Clover in size Small, possibly pairing it with JUC or Clash, which are easier to wear next to a larger size Perlee compared to Loves without looking obviously of a different size.
The regular Perlee clover ring was one of my first VCA purchases years ago, but it is too big on me (touching my knuckle, which was not comfortable when I bent my finger), so I gave it to my sister who I trade pieces with from time to time.
What is your favorite piece currently? Either for the future or in your collection now?

I definitely think full clover in sm will work better with size 16 loves. Hopefully the SA can send you a pic of both on so you can compare. I like Reg clover stacked with JUC. I haven’t seen it with the clash so I have to go look for some pics.

you ladies keep posting great SO combos and my list gets longer and longer. At this rate the Cartier won’t be till 2025 as next year I have few pieces identified. Need to narrow down and proceed with wg piece.

Yes! I was actually inspired by J'enay to try the Clash with Clover. The sizing is nice because it is more of a match with the Perlee line compared to the Love which is slightly different of course. Let me send you a DM, since the clover I tried just now is not mine exactly.

That is so true! I am such a sucker for these killer SO combos! You are a major inspiration here as well!

I prefer a looser fit on my bracelets vs. a tighter fit.

When I was at Cartier I found out my wrist size was 16. The bracelet goes way up my arm but it feels so comfortable that way and that’s the size my SA picked for me. I was interested in the regular love bracelet but it was so bulky on my wrist so we preferred the small love bracelet. But I wasn’t in love with it. Didn’t buy neither. Hubby and I tried on the love rings. It was too wide for my finger so I got the wedding ring and Hub got the love size.

But later on I decided on the VCA onyx pendant and bracelet them being daintier in design. I wanted four links removed but it came with eight links removed. Eight links made it on the tighter side like some would love. And I prefer it loose so its very simple to clip on my wrist. It’s now with four links removed.

Oh I was really interested in the Perlee signature ring but when I tried it on it was huge looked awful on my finger.

I was interested on trying on the Perlee signature bracelet but when I saw the sweet Perlee clover bracelet I knew that style was made for ME.

I wanted to eventually get the sweet onyx earrings but I don’t like the idea of removing earrings so that’s why I decided on the sweet pave earrings. But darn I didn’t ask to see them when I was at VCA. Do you have the sweet pave earrings?

Any idea how long it will take to get a sweet Perlee clover bracelet?

I am new to VCA so my favorite piece will be the sweet Perlee clover bracelet.

What’s your favorite piece(s) in your stunning collection? :flowers:

How fun to hear your thoughts and what you have tried out, thanks for sharing your journey so far :)
I had the sweet pave earrings but now they have been rehomed with another sweet tpf member who will use them more. The size is great; but I purchased them with the idea that I could wear them to sleep in, and in reality (for me) 18k gold is too soft and the posts can get bent if you sleep in them. Now I have the vintage pave in YG and WG and just wear them occasionally, so the size is fine.
Best wishes that you add your sweet clover bracelet soon!
I could not say what my favorite piece is. Probably something so boring, but true; my Perlee d’or bracelet was literally life changing because I had dealt with the daily pain of my Loves crossing over my wrist and pinching my hand. Not enough pain to get rid of them, but enough to say “Ow!” several times a day. The Perlee d’or XS is very slightly smaller than the Cartier Loves size 16, so now they cannot fall to my hand and pinch my skin. A little thing seemingly, but it has meant a lot to my quality of life.
