Hi there, I purchased sweet alhambra mop in both the necklace and bracelet but I'm really into the turquoise/wg combo as well. Is it better to get A) the butterfly bracelet and necklace plus the sweet alhambra earstuds, B) either a butterfly bracelet or the necklace and sweet alhambra earstuds or C) just get them all butterfly? Thank you!

Im not sure exactly when, but my last purchase which was made near the end of 2020 but I just took delivery of this week, was in white VCA packaging. I assumed that perhaps they were just out of the black NYC boxes - but my SA said that no- there would only be white boxes now.
Perhaps the start of 2021?
I can ask.

I got an item in November and was surprised when it came in the white box because it was my first purchase from the NYC flagship. It is a funny thing to care about, but I really wanted the black box!!! I assumed they were just out because of the massive sales before the price increase!

On another note, I kind of like having one extra motif hanging on my guilloche bracelet. Does this look weird to you all? Should I have it shortened?

That was my first thought, too, that they had just run out of them - but alas, it appears to be the end of an era.
I don’t blame you at all for wanting the NYC black box. Details are important.

Yes! I tried to dangle a motif for my bracelet and actually caught it on something and almost broke it and damaged it. Even though I didn’t want to part with it and thought the dangling motif was kind of cute, it’s now in the process of being shortened for its own safety. :lol:
