I think they look great together and on you. How did you feel about it?

Hi Ladies, a few weeks ago I was having a dilemma about the holiday pendant (older posts in this thread). I worried if it would compete with my dbty necklace. At the time I wasn't able to see it in person and passed. Yesterday, at my local VCA, the SA had me try it on anyway. She really liked it on me and understood that I never take my dbty off. Here's the photo (sorry, I don't know how to size). I'm holding the holiday piece as far down as I can with the idea of using an extension of some kind. What do you think?
Please ignore my old décolletage ( should have used sunscreen as a teen).

Gorgeous!
You should pounce on that one.

Stylemechanel,
I am going to give you my honest opinion because that is exactly what I would want from you and from all the other ladies (and gents!) on this forum: I do love the holiday pendant on you... and I really love your DBTY necklace too (GORGEOUS diamond BTW!) but I don't love them together. They are both really beautiful necklaces but I don't know that wearing them together enhances either one or shows it off to its best. The VCA piece has such warm coloring and the DBTY necklace is so coolly fiery, I don't think they play off each other effectively.
Do you really NEVER take off the DBTY? If for sentimental reasons, I totally get that -- 100%!!! -- and I would say don't get this necklace: consider instead a WG alternative such as WG with MOP which I think would look stunning layered with your existing DBTY, or perhaps a single motif WG/diamond like the magic....
I'm very sorry if this is not what you wanted to hear, and take it FWIW - just one girl's opinion.
Thankyou texasgirliegirl, it is warming on me. I think the lesson I am learning is to take a photo of whatever it is - the persective is a little different and the carmera does not lie.![]()

Oh hopingoneday, your honesty is exactly what I want and need! Thank you. I really value every opinion and I am so confused - but my original thought is your thought and again....thank you!!!!!And yes, I never, ever take it off - except to clean when it really needs it but then it goes right back on. It's my "this is my....necklace and it says who we are as a family, our tradition of each girl getting the same thing, it is what my husband gave me, my sister picked out, my parents started as a tradition...this is my when you see me this is what I wear - no matter what".
Thank you again for your honesty, I am so grateful, and maybe relieved .....it is so easy to get sucked up into the beautiful pieces of VCA!![]()
I feel the same way! I always try to take pics of an item on whether it be a bag or jewelry piece if I have access to try so I can go back and look at the pics to make my decision. I actually think this looks really good with the holiday pendant at a longer length. I like layering pieces that don't necessarily match. Your dbty is truly stunning though so I can see wanting to keep the focus on that.
I agree. Gorgeous necklaces separately but your DBTY has such presence that the two compete.
