Haha! Thanks for the thoughts. I will likely eventually post this question but I first need to try the pieces all on.This is heresy coming from me, but if I had your pieces, I would get the butterfly BTF ring and matching earrings. I would skip Frivole.
I love love love Frivole, and it's my favorite collection.
However, since you are still deciding between the two, I would say you don't love love love Frivole, and you love both equally.
That said, since you already have the Lotus, I would skip Frivole.
Here is why...
I wear my Lotus set and Frivole set interchangeably. I rotate wearing my jewelry every day, and I would say these two sets are very similar. Yes, the Lotus ring is bolder, but at the end of the day, to me, I honestly do not differentiate from the two. Each is still a flower ring.
For your collection, the butterfly is a completely differently look. Dissecting your rings down to its core design, if you purchased the butterfly, you will have a bow, a flower, and a butterfly. Great variety. If you purchased Frivole, you will have a bow, a flower, and another flower. Pretty, but not really distinct, especially if you plan to only get three VCA rings. If you plan to get two more, of course, get both.
On the butterfly...
I really think the unmatched earrings are super cool! I am not an earring person, and rings are an afterthought for me to match a set. I usually get a ring or necklace that I love, and I get the earrings to match. In this case, I can see myself getting the earrings because I love them and then the matching ring secondary to make a set. That's only because I just "like" the ring, but I don't love it, and given the choice between Frivole or Butterfly, hands down I would choose Frivole. You are still debating though, so you love them equally.
Pink or yellow...
I know rings look different on everyone, but I have googled a lot of photos on different people. My two cents...
I think the yellow pops more as it seems to be an intense canary yellow with a slight drop of orange. I think the pink is more feminine and prettier, but I rarely see it pop in the photos; therefore, to me, it's more of a subtle pretty. Of course, when you try them on, you will for sure know.
I like jewelry that pops, and I can visualize both rings on me, and if I were to get a butterfly set, I think I would go with yellow sapphire. If you don't need pop and want a more feminine look, the plus in the pink sapphire earrings is they would go great with your Noeud ring. The metal in the pink sapphire is RG, so it would match your Noeud.
That said, you already have the YG Frivole to wear with Noeud, so full circle...
I'd go with a yellow sapphire set.
Did that help? Are you converted to getting a butterfly?![]()
Joking aside, both are beautiful, and you can't go wrong.
I am considering the wg and pink sapphire pair to go with my noeud specifically. Both will be wg and rg. I actually love that the pink is subtle and won’t compete with noeud but instead complement each other. I need to try these on to decide.
If I get those earrings then the question becomes if I should reconsider which 3rd ring to get. I am not there yet. Knowing me I will just buy whichever I love the most and not consider how it all ties together. I want to try the frivoles pave wg, yg and the butterfly wg/pink. I don’t see myself getting the wg/yellow due to my love for yellow diamond rings. I do agree with your thought on have a flower, bow and butterfly seems like a good variety!
