Van Cleef in action!

[nightbefore]

The US CDC director appears to be a VCA fan too! Looks like a 10 motif white gold or chalcedony vintage Alhambra necklace!

She also wore a mother-of-pearl magic Alhambra necklace during an interview today.

Maybe it is two sweet 6 motif bracelets attached?

Looks like it could be the 10 motifs Vintage Alhambra white gold with diamonds though.

IMO, the Motifs are too small for Vintage and too large for Sweet. Also Govvies are very cognizant wearing expensive jewelry when they will be on camera. It’s one thing for Dr. Birks or a Congresswoman/Senator to wear an Hermes scarf/CSGM. It’s quite another thing to wear a $50K necklace on TV. True story. A very famous government official nearly bought a Verdura necklace from me through a mutually known intermediary. She was going to wear it to the State of the Union address. She decided not to buy it because she was afraid that the expensive necklace would draw too much attention. The point is important Govvies like to fly under the radar.

I think this is VCA-inspired.

Agreed. The chain isn't right and certainly the length isn't.

I havne't been on for a while and us

I've been off for a while and just catching up now... This red & grey is a gorgeous combination! May I know which shade of red is your Hermes bag? You wear it well. Thanks so much!

Thank you so much! It’s my favorite shade of red - Rouge Casaque

Stunning! This is the shade of red inside my SO Kelly 28. I did a noir chèvre on the outside of the bag, rouge casque on the inside, and gold hardware. Didn't know if I'd ever again be given the opportunity for an SO, so I stuck with a timeless, classic combination. I suspected this was your shade of red, but I couldn't be sure... It's so hard for photographs to capture true colors, especially since the lighting changes everything! It looks gorgeous the way you paired it with greys here.

I think, for the most part, this is absolutely true. Unless, of course, you are Christine Legarde (especially during her term as Managing Director of the IMF). She simply ignored the critics and continued to wear her Hermes scarves and Chanel jackets and carry her Hermes bags. She was a powerful and confident woman who refused to let the critics dim her inner fashionista.

I think this is VCA-inspired.

I am not sure about this particular necklace, it is pretty hard to tell. However, I have seen her on Sunday morning news show several times wearing VCA Magic single motif earrings and a Magic pendant. So it isn't out of the realm of possibility that this necklace is VCA as those pieces undoubtedly were the real deal.

I followed Christine just to see her Chanel! She had the best jackets!
A person who wears a lot of nice bling (including a lot of VCA) is Maria Bartiromo.

Thank you so much! Ooh a noir chèvre beauty with RC inside is a timeless combination! There’s something about chèvre leather that gets me every time.
