VCA Sweet Alhambra OR Cartier Baby Love bracelet

[Uptown Luxer]

Hello there,
I would like to hear opinions if you either own these or if you were in a similar dilemma in the past. I already have a love cuff and a JUC so now I am looking for a chain bracelet from Cartier or VCA. Which one? Thank you for your time

What about a 5 motif vintage Alhambra from VCA? It is a chain bracelet, but I think it might hold its own with the JUC and love better than one of these more delicate bracelets.

Thank you for your feedback. What do you mean when you said that it might hold its own ? Thank you

Because the chains of the sweet Alhambra and Cartier love appear to be thin, I would be concerned they might get tangled up in the bigger bracelets, or visually get lost between them as you move your arm throughout the day. Since the 5 motif is more substantial, maybe this issue could be avoided. I think this is a great case for going to the boutiques to try on (if possible where you live).

Thank you for the insight! Yeah, I am trying to find someone who can refer me to a SA here in CA. I am moving in a few days to a place where I won’t have a store close to me. I know some stores in South Orange County are scheduling private appointments. So I am trying to connect with someone. Thank you so much!!!!

I will check the Cartier one in person. I might forgo the sweet Alhambra. It seems tiny and although it’s VCA it’s too inflated. Let’s see the Cartier one

I don't really like bracelets with a single "pendant" area like the two you've picked, because that pendant is heavier and unfortunately the law of gravity exists, meaning that that pendant area will always end up facing down on your wrist instead of on top of the wrist like you would imagine. All that would be seen 95% of the time would be the very thin chain link of the bracelet, not the beautiful pendant part.

That's the reason I bought the 6 motif sweet, which doesn't have this problem.

I was looking at both of these and I ended up getting the cartier baby love the chain on the vca sweet was just too thin for my liking

 

[Uptown Luxer]

Yeah .... I will check it in store but I am realizing that and I am disliking it. I will focus on the necklace or maybe the earrings.

 

[Uptown Luxer]

Meaning... disliking because the chain is so thin. I don’t like to baby my jewelry. I like to wear it. So I am afraid this chain will not be able to handle me lol
