Wow, stunning earrings! Would you mind posting a pic of the full diamond cosmos earclips as well? The cosmos earrings look so good on you!

I must say you really have the most stunning VCA earring collection! Lotus, Frivole, Socrate, Alhambra, Cosmos... you have it all! Which pair of earrings is your favorite one?

Thanks so much !!

I'll try and get a picture of the diamond Cosmos later today when I can sneak away from the family!

I think my favorite earring design has been different at different times but right now I would say these two designs:

1). frivoles -- they are all beautiful ....wg, yg, pave.... because of the unique way they sit up on your ears. I never see anything else like it.
2) socrate -- I have the small, but I love how feminine they look. They are not really blingy like a pave, and very elegant looking.

Very lovely!

Gorgeous sbelle! Please tell me you were flying somewhere very glamorous, deserving of those beautiful earrings!

These are beautiful! Thanks for posting the modeling pic. You have one of the best VCA collections!

Oh geez SBelle. I need these! You are a terrible enabler. I also see a chasse en Inde moussie from H too!

Stunning!!

Thanks so much for you sweet comments!

 

[sbelle]

Those are sooooo gorgeous!!
Would you mind sharing the price of these beauties?

Thank you so much for sharing these modeling shots.

They are expensive like all VCA! I don't have the exact price in front if me but it was something like $15,500. But if you are longing for a pair of Cosmos these are the most affordable option.

Lol-- it just hit me that i don't have the earclips right now. I had to send them for a brief trip back to VCA. Even though VCA was told many times that I wanted posts, the earclips came without posts.

Oh, that's too bad - you must be missing your stunning earrings! Well, maybe you could post pics once your earrings are back

As I wait for the goodies I ordered from VCA, does anyone here wear any sweet bracelets with their love bracelets. I know I have seen some pictures on the stacking thread, but was curious, in practicality, and daily wear, if anyone does that?

Good question. I was wondering the same thing. I have seen lots of pictures of this combo and think it looks beautiful but wasn't sure if the sweet bracelets especially the clover, butterfly, or heart portion could get damaged by the love when worn together.

Exactly. Or if the Love(s) just cover the sweets so you can't even see them. Hopefully someone can chime in. I ordered three of them and now wondering if I made a mistake because I wear my two Loves everyday! I suppose I could trade them in for something else but now with the price increases, it will be hard to pay up for something else!

Hope this helps. I was trying to not get my face in the pic which was hard to do

Thank you; so pretty!

What a mess. My internet has been wacky so my posts aren't getting posted or are hours delayed (on my end, not TPF), but my wireless network is back on track soooo.....I wanted to give an update for those that saw my post about my first VCA purchase delivery being delayed.

Turns out the SA put the wrong city on the package so it was sent to New Jersey. They were able to reroute it back to me, vs to their store then out to me and they let me know I should be getting it the next day. It was a mess, but they sent me roses to say sorry. However, when I was getting a haircut the next afternoon, the SA emailed me to say the package was delivered that morning. I said I was at home all morning and there was no package! She said it had been signed for. I said it was not signed by me, so who signed it? She investigated and said that it actually had been left without a signature. I was freaking at that point since it was pouring rain outside. When I finally got home, the package wasn't there. It turns out that a neighbor saw it in the rain and took put it in her car when she was running errands. She didn't know what it was and why I couldn't believe it was bouncing around in the trunk of car.

I've been really upset. This was my first VCA purchase and I am really mad! I'm thinking about calling the manager today. But trying to calm down first.

I have,
I haven't seen any damage. if I wear my sweet bracelet close to my wrist the love bracelet just slides over it, it will hit the perlee edge of the sweet but not the MOP. if I wear my sweet too loose it's not a good mix, it tends to wrap around the love and get tangled.

Thanks for your response Candice!!! I guess the key is having a tight sweet bracelet fit...

Wow, what a mess and totally stressful! Sorry to hear about your crazy ordeal. It's like a comedy of errors almost to torture you. You poor thing. But now you have it and all is better? Hope you're trying them all on and enjoying the excitement of receiving your first VCA purchase. Can't wait to see your mod shots!
