I am glad you tried the butterfly pendant, it looks good on you, but doesn't have the stunning look that the ring give you. did you not try the matching earrings?
:smile:
I love the perlee clover and 3 row on you. the malachite perlee and serpentine don't go well next to each other, maybe on it's own.
well, you are very disciplined I have to say, and continue shopping/searching what you love is part of the fun!
Thank you @rosebean :hugs:
At this stage, something has to wow me 100% for me to bring it home. The problem is the butterfly pendant did but I wasn’t in the market for another pendant at this time so had to stay true to myself. I wish the matching earrings were available but they haven’t come to my store yet. When it does, I would love to try them. Seeing how much I love earrings these days, I have a feeling I will be head over heels in love with it! Trouble :biggrin:

The perlee couleurs line has been on my radar for sometime but it’s a ‘maybe’ kinda piece for the future if I have nothing else on my WL. And, I would do 1) the RG in carnelian if I get a dark shade of carnelian which I have heard is almost impossible in this bracelet because the stone is so translucent. 2)I would wear it solo without stacking it with any other bracelets because if it’s shape.

Hehe it’s hard to be disciplined I won’t lie because the monster in me wants to munch it all:biggrin: but I have to constantly remind and hold myself accountable to my policy of curating a collection that gets used consistently and constantly without regrets.

@eternallove4bag you are in such a wonderful stage that you kind of have what you most desired, next step, is just to fine tune/add any piece that not only can take your breath away but also something new not in your current collection yet, either another category, another line, shape, stone. Perlee Couleurs carnelian would be a great addition, I don't see red colored jewelry on you yet, but I can imagine it will look beautiful on you.

I love the hoop serpentine, personally, I like a bit bigger (maybe just tiny bigger) hoops, but between the serpentine and the butterfly earrings, I will vote the butterfly first. I wish there is a pair somewhere for you to try :hugs:

Thank you so much @rosebean :heart:… it’s such a fun process curating one’s collection, bags or bling. I can’t believe I am saying this but from flowers (Frivole) to butterflies to snakes (Serpentine), I seem to be on a mission to create my own garden of Eden:biggrin:

I can’t wait to try those butterfly earrings when they become available because at the end of the day I am a VCA lover. Their designs resonate with me. After my serpentine hoops, I am ready to say goodbye to Bvlgari. I made quick detours to Cartier, Bvlgari, Rolex and Tiffany in the past year to cherry pick but I always end up landing in my comfort zone - VCA:hbeat:

I love your beautiful and dynamic garden! :heart: well, aren't we all VCA lovers! but sometimes detours made life even better, and appreciate more.
 
Absolutely @hja
After the perlee line, the butterflies are my favorite from VCA. I want to try the matching butterfly earrings too now. Trouble :biggrin:

The matching butterfly earrings will look fabulous on you! A dreamy combo with your ring. Whichever earring you decide, I am sure will look great with your OOTD. Your daughter is one lucky gal-all those wonderful pieces that will one day be passed on to her. :amuse:
 
The 20-motif RG, diamond, GMOP just went on my radar. I own a RG Perlee Clover and the matching hoops. So, I believe it will make a beautiful set. I would probably get the Cosmos PG/MOP ring too.

The GMOP motifs in the store I tried on in the store were more brownish in cast than I would prefer — because I already own a Letterwood RG 20-motif. I want to see other color variations before I pick one. I think I would like one grayer/cooler in cast.

I was originally going to get a Chalcedony 20-motif and the Owl pin As my next VCA purchases. I already own 20s in WG MOP and WG Onyx. I once had the Chalcedony 20, but re-homed it and regretted selling it. I will purchase these, later.

The point of my rambling post is that my jewelry fund will soon be big enough to make this big purchase. So I might as well do the big purchase sooner, yes/no?

Can I see modeling pics of the PG GMOP 20s?
If you own it, is it worth the $$$. Do you love it? Or is there something better to get for the money. ($72K plus tax)

I own the 20 pave/gmop and absolutely adore it! I think gmop/ pave/ rg is the most beautiful combo vca makes. The three are just a match made in heaven. I wear my 20 with the va pave/ rg earrings and love the look. I decided on this piece over both the full pave 20 in wg and the onyx/ pave in wg. To me, there was no comparison. I'm just smitten over the piece and would highly recommend it.

absolutely beautiful, I wish they come in yellow gold too. I don't like to pay 30% for SO.
