Hi, Ladies,

I am planing to 10 motif necklace but torn between oynx and MOP. I am asian with fair skin. Could you share your opinion which one will be more practical ?

I think both of them would be stunning on you, however I find the onyx in YG to be incredibly striking. I have both in 5 motif bracelets and I slightly prefer the onyx over the MOP.

I've tried on several MOP pieces (single, 10, 20 motif necklaces and the bracelets) but it never sang to me... I ended up with YG and Onyx, and I personally think it looks fantastic! I also own other onyx pieces, but the VCA onyx literally glows. Even with my black hair down and around my shoulders, and wear a black top, the necklace does not get lost in all the black.

Love it. The all diamond is the ultimate but the YG is perfect for everyday. Well I might wear the all diamond everyday but I am from Texas. We love our diamonds!

^^ Made me laugh :) Very true though, it's big or go home here in the Lone Star State. Yey, I think I will go for the all YG, and not hesitate to wear it daily.


I think what I like about the VCA pieces is that I know that they are special, but not every other person on the street does.

I had the chance to try on the sweets butterfly today. I also tried on the chalcedony wg vintage to compare sizing since they did not have the yg mop in stock. I did decide yg mop is the way to go for me and have ruled out onyx for my first piece. Just based on sizing do you think the sweets looks too dainty to be a stand alone piece? I wear a 14" necklace comfortably so my neck is somewhat small. If it's my first and potentially only piece I want it to look very vca. I wasn't sure of the butterfly is signature enough or if everyone should start with a clover?

I'm going to be in the minority but I prefer the sweet size on you!

Hi ladies

I came across a used Alhambra Lucky heart pendant (not the mini size) in YG and cornelian. The consignment store is selling for USD2,200. I am normally not interested in second hand jewelry. But I have asked my SA and they say the large size heart is no longer sold by VCA.
Have you ladies heard otherwise? And do you think USD2,200 price is reasonable? i checked TPFs pricing list and it was selling for USD1850 in 2010.

Any input appreciated! Cheers. :smile1:
