Thank you so much! So much love for this ring! Can be dressed up or down! Are you excited about your visit to the VCA store? I cannot wait to see what you get! Hopefully, the large pendant and the small earrings?
Yes, this ring is casual or dressy. For me, I've been wearing my super casual and love it. It's so sparkly as you know! I can't wait to visit in a few weeks and get some goodies... my ring feels lonely, it needs a matchy matchy buddy.

I think your ring needs a buddy too... matching sparkly earrings! :biggrin:

I am excited for you! Hehe! Enable me with pictures please! Either the matching pendant or the earrings are going to come home with me later this year for sure! :hbeat:

I am sure any second piece will look great on you! I really hope you will give the earrings a second chance. Maybe they were put on the wrong ear? The earrings are polarized as I'm sure you know... there's one for the right ear and one for the left ear. Maybe in all the excitement, the SA passed you the wrong earring for the wrong ear. I think the earrings will just make your face glow!

I'm headed to VCA in two weeks and my SA told me he has the goodies ready! I tried on my mock version of the Very Large pave pendant again, and I know it's going to be too small for me. I just know myself when it comes to long chains... I need a substantial pendant, one that packs a punch. I am not one that wears a small pendant on a long chain, that's just me. The Very Large pave pendant is 26x29mm. I compared it to my Tiffany medium bottle pendant which is larger at 45x35mm, and I think this bottle pendant is a tad bit small. I also have the Tiffany large bottle pendant which is 63x54mm, and to me, it's perfect... huge and packs a punch. :lol: So...I think I'm trying to convince myself that I love the pendant just to make a three piece set. My SA is still bringing it in for me to try on though... just in case.

I'll get the small WG diamond pave Frivole earrings for sure to make a set and because I love those earrings.
However, I'm going to get another BTF ring instead of the pendant. I am in love with BTF rings now. I'll just wait for some new pieces in the WG Frivole diamond pave. My wish would be an equivalent of 20 motif, but with mini pave diamond flowers. That would be so 70s, flower child groovy! I can totally see myself in that piece, with the pave flowers swinging. :biggrin:

Can't wait for you to get your second piece also... maybe we can be twins with the ring and earrings! :smile:

I am so in love with the Frivole BTF ring myself that I can totally relate to your love for yours. Like you, I am now enthralled by BTF rings in general and I am even looking at the possibility of adding the butterfly white mop and pave ring in Fall instead of a matching Frivole piece. But, I need to try out the butterfly ring in my size first. It’s in transit from Paris to my store currently.
I am definitely going to try out the Frivole earrings in small size again. I like to try pieces on my wishlist multiple times before actually buying them just to be 100% sure. I did put on the Frivole earrings correctly. My wonderful SA/friend would have been mortified if I had made the mistake :biggrin:. He is amazing with so much of patience for a person like me who is still learning each day. I know people who have the Frivole earrings in small absolutely love it so I will definitely be reconsidering them.:hbeat:

In the meanwhile, I am going to drool over pictures of the Frivole earrings that everyone posts here! Excited for you to get yours too! Regarding the Frivole large pendant, I agree with you that if you don’t love it and if you feel it’s not substantial enough for you, definitely consider something else instead. How about the lotus pendant in large? That would pair up with the lotus BTF ring. I remember that you were thinking about adding the ring. That would be an absolutely spectacular combination in my opinion.

You have a great memory, and yes, I am going to get the Lotus BTF ring. My SA has requested several sizes for me to be sure I purchase the correct size. To me, I don't think Frivole matches Lotus (rounded heart-shaped petals vs. pointy petals and leaves). So for me, I would not mix these two designs, but that's just me.

And now, I'm going to speak heresy... I am actually not in love with the Lotus design as it is plain to me, so I don't think I want any other Lotus pieces. Forgetting the Lotus BTF ring, if I look at just the Lotus pendant or one Lotus earring, the design itself does not wow me as anything special. I know... heresy, and yes, I realize tons of people love Lotus, so Lotus lovers, please don't shoot me. :sad: I think I am in love with the Lotus ring more for it's technical design as it is gorgeous when worn open and packs a punch. I told my SA I plan to wear it open only, so sizing would be for my right hand finger.

Now Frivole, I am in love with that design. The heart shaped petals and the 3-D make it so gorgeous and artistic. Even my husband mentioned the heart-shaped petals. Before I purchased my Frivole BTF, I was looking at all BTFs and showing my husband my top choices. I thought I wanted the Magic Alhambra BTF. My husband sees Frivole and says "I like that one, and oh, do you see, the petals are little hearts, you have to get it". I can't believe he noticed it; he's a romantic I must say.

Who knows... maybe once I get my Lotus BTF ring, I may fall in love with the rest of the Lotus collection. But like you... I am infatuated with BTF rings. The Cosmos diamond and oynx BTF ring is a future one I am considering. The black onyx is different and gives is a bit of punch vs. being just "another flower ring". It also comes with matching earrings which I like the design. This is a huge plus to me as I can make a set. I have never tried on the Butterfly BTF. I had always dismissed it, but I'll try it on when I go to VCA. Thanks for the nudge!

You are so lucky you can visit a store multiple times to try things on often! I am sure you have a blast and your SA loves seeing you!
