I got the Perlee turquoise earrings and absolutely hated the La Pousette backs! Yes, they were a pain to put on! I asked my SA and she said to send them back, and they actually didn't change the post but gave me regular backs that fit the posts. I guess they need to see the earrings to make sure the backs fit the post. There was no charge for this when I did it.
Aww thank you very much!These are STUNNING! The whole picture is worthy of a VCA Ad. I have jewelry envy
Your pieces are beautiful, but I personally do not like yellow gold and rose gold together. So I'd get rose gold Alhambra earrings of some kind (hammered, pave, or SO gmop whenever they will accept SOs).
You made my day! Hehe I would totally be willing to work for VCA, in creative capacity, for some deep discounts on their jewelry pieces
Thank you so much! I know I would have driven myself nuts if I hadn’t ordered the matching GMOP earrings
Thank you so much
… love being able to share my love for VCA with like minded friends here!
I don't mind mixing metals on my handbag and my jewelry but with you, don't like mixing earrings and necklace metals. If only i were more open minded.
Since you have the 10 YG carnelian, I’d do a SO and get the matching RG GMOP. Then you can get the YG carnelian on your wish list. I would not get the RG sweets carnelian as you are already getting the YG carnelian.
I do not like to mix metals, especially YG and RG as they are so close together. People say “they are close” which is the exact reason I do not like to mix. It looks like it doesn’t match (which it doesn’t), but you are wearing it together because it’s “close enough.” That’s a big no for me personally. If you mix, I like it to look deliberate such as WG & YG or WG & RG.
Seeing your other pieces, I also would not get the VA RG pave earrings as it seems the only reason you would get that is for your RG GMOP pendant. Which then, if yes, just SO the RG GMOP earrings for a stunning set.
Last idea, and hubby will hate this…would you consider exchanging your pendant? Maybe another pendant in YG or the carnelian earrings.
That’s what I would do. I feel like you are trying to make one piece work because it’s RG. Now you have to buy something else in RG. But then, you end up with just a few pieces of each, all in three different metals. For me, I would focus on building up my existing collection.
I know my hubby would certainly understand.
Sorry! I posted to the wrong thread. @BigAkoya . I moved it over to the action thread. You guys prob already saw it. My bad.
I have La Pousette backings on my diamond studs and I find them supper easy to take on and off
DH is super sentimental and has a big story he tells about acquiring the RG GMOP…. he knew I wanted GMOP vintage Alhambra. The SA showed him the RG or he wouldn’t have known the difference! I do love it and him.
Not a big RG fan but weirdly received two pieces as gifts in the last three months. The other is a pendant from my daughter…. So no exchanging there either.
The carnelian in YG is on the list for sure.
Head nodding on RG GMOP earrings. I will see about SO although no where near spend enough and was in fact done until DH gave me these two pieces. What a problem to have!
Need get through taxes, pay Uncle Sam, my state and my city and then see what is what.
I feel earrings are super important in a Zoom world. More so than pants.
