I think it will fine to mix the colors of a ring with a necklace. It will be a pretty and fresh look. Springtime! (I meant to respond to your question about mixing the yellow and white butterfly ring with the pink/rg necklace- I am not sure how my answer got linked to a different quote than I thought I was responding to.)

Beth! Do you still have your Perlee hoops? A modeling pic please. Poodlgrl 's drove me crazy with lust!
Hi, yes I do, I love them! I hope this helps, no one is home to take my pic.

Yeah, I told myself that when I sold my ombré lizard....and immediately "needed" another CDC. The problem is, it's very distinctive, and mixes really well if you have Hermes scarves and/or leather goods. It also goes well with VCA!!!
I personally like the vintage WG pave earrings more. The butterfly btf ring is a very special piece. The necklace is very pretty, but it does not quite have the same impact IMHO. I am also biased since I love my vintage YG earrings.

1) What do you think you would wear more?
2) Are you lusting over one more than the other? What can't you stop thinking about?
Love the hoops and butterflies that have been posted! So pretty!
Also... I have to say that I reached the final decision on the 10 motif. I love yg/onyx and i love my bracelet.... but the 10 motif was not singing to me and I was making too many concessions about possible lengthening, etc. I reread over the advice on the thread and knew I had to return it. I was very sad to do so because it is sooo gorgeous, but it was not right for my everyday look. Now I'm not even so sure the 20 would work either. I wish I lived closer to a boutique so I could go in and try these things on and have time to think about it before actually making a purchase.
Earrings however, are another matter. I'm thinking yg/onyx ear clips before the next price hike. But, how heavy are they to wear in the ear for a full work day?

If I were you, I would ask myself the same questions as POODLGRL suggested. I went back and looked at the photos again. the earrings are really a statement (how many other earrings do you already have that look nice with the ring? Not that they are close when wearing but still.) The pink diamond butterfly with RG and the yellow diamond butterfly with YG are super gorg! (Again may be good to review your necklaces and see what you already have that goes well with your ring.)This will be a hard decision-but a fun one! They will all compliment your ring!
I loved the length of the 10 motif with your 5 motif! But you have to be satisfied spending that much on one piece. Hopefully you can visit a VCA to try numerous items on to know more what you like on you. Most VCA looks beautiful of our fellow TPFrs but you may not prefer it on you. Good luck with your return!
Oh no. That's a pity. Did u try the 10 mop? I have both and got the onyx first and loved it. Then I got the mop and surprisingly it has become my favorite. In my opinion it's a must have! Good luck picking!
