Your right, it is beautiful so don't worry about the money. I am loving the onyx more lately with all these pics
such a great piece to add to your collection. No more anxiety and truly enjoy this wonderful piece.
Paruparu that's was lightening fast, enjoy wearing your beautiful pieces they look fabulous. Oh and I m glad the price is a thing if the past now
Thank you for the compliments ladies!
hi NYTexan, i took a pic of the necklace and the bracelet together, hopefully this helps!
I love the 18" length (all my other necklaces are the same or longer because 16" is a choker on me)
Thank you!! The necklace looks really lovely on you. It is absolutely perfect. Looks like they added about two links between each motif so I guess it is not that noticeable when you wear the necklace and bracelet together. I am hoping to get the YG MOP 10 motif this summer...saving uphi NYTexan, i took a pic of the necklace and the bracelet together, hopefully this helps!

I appreciate the photos it puts me at ease about adding in the length. Enjoy your necklace!!!!
Yipeeeee I just took delivery of my MOP bracelet, all I need now is the perlee bangle for my dream stack to be complete ( I doubt that v much ). I simply love them together
This is still my favorite look ever! I swoon!
Very Chanel.
These were my first babies. Beautiful on you! I love them with your simple gold bangle. I do mine with my love bracelet too.
Thank you SJunky, I don't think I ever liked any jewelery more. I love catching a quick look on my wrist while driving just to make sure they are still mine LOLThis is still my favorite look ever! I swoon!

If anyone is interest eBay has an extender from 1" to 8". I haven't purchased one yet but I believe another member hashttp://m.ebay.com/itm/251079742841?nav=SEARCH
I've been meaning to buy this since mid 2013. I want 4" with a jump ring at 2". I keep getting deterred by other purchases. It may be bc I haven't worn my 10 motif yet so I don't feel rushed. Hopefully by spring I'll purchase it
Hello VCA ladies! Firstly, I must say that all of you ladies have such incredible taste! Your collections small and large are tdf. I recently wanted to pick up a piece of designer jewelry to wear as my statement piece. I was contemplating between the love bracelet and the vintage Alhambra. Still like the love but felt the alhambra was more my style and would prefer that over the love (at this time). It's pretty, feminine and classic.
I have been reading up on VCA and this thread has been extremely helpful. Love all those mod pics.
I was contemplating either a 5 motif bracelet or the single pendant. I tried the sweet bracelet but on me I decided it was too petite to wear on its own (which is my intention at this time). I love it stacked with another sweet or with the Cartier love.
Long story short I ended up getting the 10 motif onyx necklace. I never considered the necklace because I thought that would be too pricy for my first piece and no diamonds at that price point. The necklace is currently in NY getting another 2 inches added on. On my neck, not all the motifs would lay flat when I tried it on with the standard length (16"?) and that bothered me. Guess my collar bone or neck was in the way. Lol... I think the extra 2 inches will help keep the motifs flat (at least that was the case in the store).
I am anxiously awaiting for my piece to arrive. Sorry for the long story but thanks for letting me share.

Post a pic when you get it back. Congrats on your purchase
I started with a VCA bracelet and the necklace is next on my list. Really trying to learn as much as I can from the forum about the 10 motif and any feedback or advice you have to share is appreciated.
It has never turned around. I find that the necklace doesn't move much because of the weight. I had long hair so there's absolutely no way to see it. I like that it's not a permanent fix because I can take it off when I add the 5 motif to the 10 motif...although sometimes I add it even then. It was the best $10 I've spent because it makes the 10 motif so much more wearable for me!
