That’s interesting…I’ve had the same thought about VCA especially the beaded gold (perlee bangles) and Cartier’s clash collection. My mother has very similar designs of jewelry in her safe deposit box, but it’s all 22karat instead of 18kt gold!

very very beautiful bracelet and ring, look so chic with the cool tone sweater. and the fucshia color just eye popping.This is the craziest photo, but we’re among TPF friends.
Dressing like a slob today, but the bling makes me feel put together.
@tenshix and for anyone interested in Rose Indien…
I really wanted to show Rose Indien, how it looked, and if it was a good match to my 22A fucshia loafers. Well… sort of, more complimentary than a match. Rose Indien has more red in it as you can see in the photo. Nice bright raspberry red, a nice change from the traditional blue reds.
You can’t tell in the photo, but my sweater is a chunky pale blue sweater with several thin red stripes. I kind of like it together. Pops of raspberry and red against blue.

Thank you! I recall you a stripe lover too! If yes... you are going to love this sweater as it is really a stripe!
It's La Ligne, my all time favorite sweater brand.
This sweater is the Marina in soft cotton. It is so pretty, pale blue with a pop of red. I love pale blue and red/raspberry.

I also love the Toujours cashmere sweater. I have several of these, solids and stripe (of course
). The knit texture is gorgeous, and it is super soft cashmere. If you think you might like this sweater, the color Frosting (pale pink) would look fabulous with your gorgeous chalcedony pieces. I don't have any chalcedony (yet!), but I have this Frosting color. I monogrammed the sleeve in red thread, and I plan to wear the Frosting with jeans and my fuchsia loafers. The red thread almost looks fuchsia. 
Here is Toujours... it's super soft and plush. I love the texture of these sweaters.

This is it. This is your everyday, never-without, take-with-you-everywhere sweater that will always have your back. Deliciously ribbed cashmere in a loose crewneck silhouette means you need one in every color for tous les jours.

This one photo took me forever to take! My husband (in the driver's seat) was like... what are you trying to do?
I told him I was trying to take a photo of my nails. He said "what's with the shoe in the air?"
I told him that shoe is the center piece of my photo!
Photos are tough! I totally have an appreciation of people who take these gorgeous photos.
Hey, your pictures seem perfect to me, so I think you DO have a knack for action shots!This one photo took me forever to take! My husband (in the driver's seat) was like... what are you trying to do?

Whenever I try action shots these days, you either see my infant in the picture or it is blurry because my baby is moving my arm. But I, of course, I wouldn’t have it any other way! It just means they stay in my camera roll instead of being posted online

Definitely not a slob photo. Fall casual with cute loafers and amazing bling. You should post this in the casual VCA bling thread.This is the craziest photo, but we’re among TPF friends.

Final photos on Rose Indien, and I will zip it! Promise. 
I was not loving Rose Indien earlier, but I love it now! It’s not so in-your-face red which I really like.
But... there is something off to me.. . What is off?
Well, I did my own nails. I am definitely not a pro, and I forgot a crucial step, which was to cut my nails!
I usually wear my nails super short. I like them nubby and sporty looking, not long and glamorous. The length now is getting on the long side for me. I think once I nub them out, I will love this color on me!
Here are some indoor photos of Rose Indien in different lighting. There is no bad light for this color. It's really pretty, a deep raspberry. I like it a lot!
For comparison, I put Rose Indien next to Chanel Gitane and Rouge Pouissant which are an orange red and a blue red, respectively.
Hope this helps anyone who is thinking of Rose Indien. It's a beautiful color!
Okay... zipping it!

The color is gorgeous on you!!! Please don’t zip it, I love these super thorough reviews of the colors and mod shots on you! All the more reason to see your beautiful pieces more often. I think the slightly longer nails still suit you so well but I totally get the convenience of shorter nails too. I also prefer mine a bit shorter but I get too lazy to trim them every week as they grow fast, which is why I can’t do gel nails anymore. They look so ridiculous on me towards the 2nd week like badly grown out press on nails. Anyways all of these recent pops of color complement your blingy Frivole so well, thank you for the nails & jewelry inspirationFinal photos on Rose Indien, and I will zip it! Promise.

I really do love this color! And I think your nail length looks perfect! But I totally get where you’re coming from. I also cut mine down very short. How I know they’re getting too long is when I start to scratch my leather steering wheel which is an absolute annoyance to me lol!! That’s when I know to cut them down lol.Final photos on Rose Indien, and I will zip it! Promise.

The color is beautiful with your WG pave ring, and the longer nails elongate the hands. Gorgeous pairing and thanks for modeling!Final photos on Rose Indien, and I will zip it! Promise.

Alhambra X COCO CRUSH - I had these 2 for a while, but love their new look with the diamond bangle (everything looks better with more sparkles)
