The butterfly looks stunning on you! I had dismissed those silly dainty butterflies too, but they keep buzzing in my head!
Seeing your photo, they are not silly nor dainty. They have a lot of presence on your ears. My ears are small and my ear piercing is low, so they will look a bit larger on me which is good.

Okay... maybe I need to put butterflies back on my list! Did you try on a butterfly ring? On which earrings, I love pave, but I also love the quirkiness of unmatched earrings. If you decide to get a ring, that quirkiness will really be a fun look.

On priority, I vote get the 20 first... the 20 pops! Butterfly earrings are nice, but they will not pop as much as the 20. You cannot miss a 20 when worn... it's iconic VCA. It's very versatile too... looks best with a striped tee and shorts! :biggrin: :heart:

Thanks for sharing these photos! I see that necklace popping out too! I vote 20!
The butterflies were stunning and had a huge impact visually. You definitely must try them on. So I did try on the the pave butterfly in turquoise and it was absolutely fabulous. I’m getting a wg Perlee clover next. I absolutely loved it stacked with my tennis and sweet clover. SA said it will be while before it comes but that fine. I put deposit to secure one.

Ladies went to boutique yesterday and fell in love with the most amazing earrings. I had dismissed Alhambra earrings as being matronly when matched with necklace and all sweets didn’t look great on my ears. My amazing sales person brought out the diamond butterflies for me to try. I was in love. These are definitely going on my list. I’m actually prioritizing them over the 20 motif that I actually loved as well. The SA had two 10s in my exact combo rg mop and they were stunning. Also was able to try on the wg clover …same SA had hers so everything I wanted to see came together.
Those are just gorgeous! I also love the perlee clover, of course! Have you considered just getting the white gold mop 20 since you are getting at least one butterfly in wg and the clover in wg? It's pretty gorgeous and no extra 30% SO surcharge!

*You people are killing me!!! I need to stop looking at this forum! :loveeyes: :lol:

I love the butterfly earrings on you! I would prioritize this over everything!
 
I love all this talk of the butterflies, in January I tried on the RG MOP butterfly BTF for fun and I completely fell in love. With VCA I really do feel like I have to try it on and see if it sparks immediate joy, because some pieces I thought would be great ended up just being ok and some pieces I thought were ok ended up grabbing my heart. Is it because I had higher expectations for the pieces I thought would be great? Maybe. But this butterfly BTF ring is definitely at the very top of my wishlist this year :love:

Try on the yellow sapphire too. Depending if you want mellow or a pop, you might like the yellow.
If I were to get a set, I definitely do not want all diamonds as I have enough "all diamond" stuff, and after a while it looks the same... just diamod bling if that makes sense.

I want something fun; hence it would be either the pink sapphire or yellow sapphire. For me, I would pick the one that pops the most on me, and I worry the pink sapphire will just fade into my skin. The yellow sapphire (while I am a bit anti yellow sapphire as it mimicks a yellow diamond), I think will pop more on me, especially if it's a deep yellow.

Just a thought to try on all options. Fit wise, they look great on you!
You do need to try the different stone combinations. I was surprised as the ones I like the best weren't flattering with my skin tone. When you're ready, you might want to ask your SA to bring in an assortment--including the WG.
 
They really are. They stole the show for me. I debated between this and the Perlee but at this price point no impulse purchases allowed. I moved them up on the list

Totally agree!! If you are still dreaming about them a long time from now then we know it’s a for sure love. I’m still dreaming about the butterfly BTF ring and was so surprised how they stole my heart unexpectedly too.

I tried on a wg 20 and it didn’t do anything for me. I was thinking the same thing but it has to be the rg. It just glowed. The earrings are amazing. I need to stop as well because earrings were never on the radar until I started with this fabulous group

I definitely will have him bring all of them in for me to try. When it’s closer to ordering I will fly back in to see them.

I agree... @missie1 WG MOP 20! It will great with your WG Clover.

@DS2006 Focus! I am very surprised how much I like the WG Clover. It's probably because I lowered my expectations (e.g. too much metal, log arm), hence I am pleasantly surprised. I think you will love the bangle, and it will go great with your jewelry collection, VCA and non-VCA.
