Thank you for all the lovely pictures. I actually think all three golds - yellow, rose and white - look amazing on you. Truly! Cartier’s rose gold is less rose as compared to VCA and especially Rolex. So, it’s a nice option for those who are undecided between yellow and rose gold.

I know rose gold has suddenly become more popular so you see a lot of people gravitating towards it but what I truly love about rose gold is it’s subtlety, elegance and softness. I could care less what is popular or unpopular. What I care is how it looks on me. And that’s what made me build my capsule jewelry collection around rose gold pieces. White gold looks too harsh in my skin tone and yellow gold too, well, yellow :cool:

I agree with you that rose gold and white gold look great together. And since you like white gold, any rose or white gold pieces you buy can be complementary to each other and can be work together or on their own. I am not a fan of combining yellow gold with white gold pieces but that’s me.

I know of so many wonderful ladies here who own pieces in all three golds and that’s again an option for you. Even though you own yellow gold pieces, you can still add future pieces in rose and white gold. You can wear your love bracelet and white mop 5 motif together. And when you get more rose and white gold pieces, you can wear rose and white gold together. But, I wouldn’t mix yellow with rose or white gold.

The RG clash bracelet with your RG clash ring looks so pretty! I am the matchy matchy kinds so I always try to get two matching or coordinating pieces to wear together.

Again, no right or wrong choices here. Only get what you instinctively, insanely feel love for. The worst we can do is settle for something. For the crazy prices we pay, we should be irrevocably, undeniably be in love with what we buy.

Thank you very much for your help and support) :heart::hbeat: I did not attention before rose gold at all and therefore I don’t even remember what a rose gold VCA looks like in real.
I combine yellow and white gold, but after buying Clash, I realized that rose gold just perfectly matches white))) Would like to buy a Clash bracelet. And it seems to me that there is much more handwork in it than in Love). Which makes it more estimable, if only for this reason)

I also think you wear all three metals well. So it is not out of the question for you to have sets in all three metals. But I am in agreement that I do not really like yg worn with wg or pg. I do think pg can be worn with white gold (and platinum). Especially since your wedding rings are white metal and you prefer watches in white or pink, I'd probably focus on collecting complimentary pieces in white and pink gold. I mainly wear white metals, but I'd love the chance to try on certain pg pieces for some variety!

Thank you :hbeat: it is very difficult for me to concentrate on something) Still, the ideal option would be to try rose gold and see if it suits me or not. Only it's hard to get into a boutique. But it seems to me its neutral gold and should suit many people)

I agree! I don't have access to a boutique nearby, either, so I have no idea when I might visit one. I may just have to order a rose gold bracelet to try on at some point!

I am excited for you. More than half the fun for me is the planning and brainstorming. WG and RG go so well together.

VCA rose gold is definitely pinker than Cartier’s rose gold. It’s hard to capture the true hues of the RG by VCA and Cartier but I am going to try and see tomorrow in natural light if I can put my JUC bracelet in RG next to one of VCA perlee bracelets in RG and capture the difference on camera.

Thank you very much! It's so nice of you. :love: But I agree, it's very difficult to catch on camera the difference. I saw instagramm - styledbyshishi on her pendant and pavé earrings and always thought she was wearing YG, but in the comments she more than once replied that it was in RG)))

Okay giving it a try but in the pics it’s next to impossible to capture the difference between VCA RG and Cartier RG though Rolex RG is easier to see the difference on. No filters used.

One thing to remember is that the metal will oxidize over time and change color and I have heard Cartier RG over time with use looks more like YG. Cartier owners please correct me if I have this wrong.
