VCA Van Cleef & Arpels addiction - support group

[I'll take two]

i'm so excited - i finally ordered my cosmos pendant, and it's coming tomorrow! 24 hours is going to be LONG! i've literally wanted this pendant for 5 years but always got sidetracked with other purchases.

i got the small since i want to wear it casually/daytime/everyday piece but whenever i see the medium i am floored! i went back and forth "small versus medium" for years. they are so different. the small is pretty while the medium is awesome.

i am so excited and will definitely post pics when i receive it! and i promised DH no more purchases for at least 6 months!

i'm also hoping i'm done with VCA for a long time since i need to focus on and save for my e-ring upgrade!

Congrats I know you have been thinking about the Cosmos for such a long time !!
We will be twins on the Cosmos as we have flights booked to my boutique on Wednesday as it is our wedding anniversary on the 31st
I like you have struggled enormously in deciding between the small and medium as they are both beautiful I think though I am going to go with the medium as it is the same size motif as my ring and I already have a few other small pendants.I also like the fact it can be worn on the ravena or as a brooch.
If I find it too heavy which is my only reservation I will go with the small .

OMG I can't WAIT to see the pendant!

My two HGs are the lotus ring and the cosmos pendant (ok and the perlee bangle). I have them as my desktop background.

I'm over the moon excited for you!! Congrats!!!

After checking on couple more rings in store last Friday, I think I'm 70% sure I would get the Lucky Alhambra btf ring

Anyway, I called the boutique in the Palazzo, they still have the turq version, available in size 53!! It's too big for me, too bad If you're interested, grab it before it's gone

Now I'm debating between the TE+MOP and the MOP+grey MOP. I only tried on the TE in store... what do you think? Any thoughts?

i don't think you can go wrong with either, but i adore the grey MOP so that would be my personal choice. the TE has a really gorgeous dimension to it which i like.
does your wardrobe go better with either choice?

I think this compliments your skin tone so well.

I prefer MOP+grey. Sorry, I can't recall whose picture this belongs to.

Cosmos twins! I remember how we've both been wanting this pendant! I think the medium is amazing! Congratulations!!! Please let me know how the medium works out (weight)!

I love how they are your desktop background. The lotus ring is iconic VCA! Have you seen this interview done by Kat on her blog? The first picture of this blog entry shows Hera with both your HG pieces!

Is this Peppers?

 

[texasgirliegirl]

Yea!
I prefer the small one.....the one without the stem.

Does anyone have a list of which Neiman Marcus stores sell VCA? I tried calling a few yesterday and was put on hold forever or sent to voicemail. I don't want to use any SA I want to speak to that carries it and can answer my questions. Thanks
