Hee hee, I haven't decide which pendant/necklace to buy. However I cannot resist the VCA Frivole YG earrings. It was love at first sight...

You must check it out Girlies, your thoughts on the YG vs PG will be greatly appreciated
I will be layering with MOP in YG 
Thank you.
Girlies, your thoughts on the YG vs PG will be greatly appreciated
I have the yg. Two tens, in fact.
The yg was a better choice for me because my other vintage pieces are set in yg, as are my perlee bracelet and my large frivole earrings.
My LE letterwood pieces and my perlee hoops are my only pg pieces.
Get what looks best against your skin.
There are more options in yg, however.
Thank you TGG but do you find the YG very bright ( being all gold) or does it still look warm and subtle IRL?
It's a beautiful shade. Neither bright nor brassy.
Interestingly enough, I don't find the VCA pg very pink which is a good thing if you are trying to wear yg with it. Since I like to layer sometimes, it made sense to buy the all yg. For example, I can layer the yg with malachite, TE or turquoise. I would never layer those items with pg, however. The pg is pretty but very soft and disappears on me. I also feel that yg will have more enduring appeal than pg which seems to go in and out of style.
Just my thoughts.
Thank you so much for your insight
My SA did say that she found the YG to have a cleaner and more classic look. I do have the Cartier LOVE in PG but it's lovely because it is more peach than pink. I think the VCA PG looks more pink (in pictures at least) compared to Cartier PG.Thank you so much for your insight
I do think that vca's pg is beautiful. These are very expensive purchases though and for me the yg just made more sense.
The yg seems to glow. A while back a dear tpf friend posted a mod photo of my yg vintage earrings that I think beautifully shows their warmth.
Thank you TGG - I'm going to search for your pic
Hi HADASSA! TGG is right. If you debate between YG and PG, you should go for YG. When I purchased my PG 2 x 10, I was not torn between YG and PG. The SA and my DH said PG looked better on me than YG. Vintage alhambra's YG was too bright and yellow for me. But, SA said PG was normally more difficult, not for all people. You might have seen these pics already. I posted these when I purchased my PG about two years ago in the previous thread??, perhaps, but just for your info. As TGG said, VCA's pink is not very pink. I like PG X onyx YG combination.

Thank you Einseine for weighing in on this and providing some very helpful pics as well
If you didn't say that yours were PG, I honestly would not be able to tell the difference. PG actually looks perfect on you Even though I think my complexion is neutral enough to swing either way, I do think that I might lean more towards the YG Adding some pics that I got - which do you think pairs better?

I love the PG! It is very striking.

WOW I am in love with your onyx! I just received my first VCA piece (onyx vintage Alhambra earrings) and this necklace is a dream to go with earrings

Honestly, I cannot tell the color difference...
I have never tried on MOP, so I really cannot guess what they look IRL. Anyway, it is really personal preference. One of my friend loved my PG long necklace, but she actually purchased the 2x10 YG and TE!!! I have never met ladies wearing PG necklace, which I like. I see them only in the magazine.
