:p Yes, and no games either. As a long time customer, the way my boutique treated me after years of loyal purchasing was a huge turn off. I have, for the most part, lost interest in H. Their customer service, their ridiculous rules, and increasingly insane prices for declining quality have made me look to other companies that will actually give me what I want as long as I have the money to buy it. I don't have to spend money on other worthless junk before having the "right" to buy what I really want. The best thing is, I suddenly find myself with much more time, and more expendable money if H isn't an obsession! :p The downside is, I always find another obsession :graucho:

Don't you love how one is "offered" (the opportunity to pay for) a bag?

Hi diana! I had been trying to talk myself out of it, but I did not want it any more. One of my friends got it and I tried it on! It did not look good on me. The single motif with the center diamond may be too feminine to my taste.

In Asian markets, the holiday pendant has just become available. They are both online stores and at the boutiques. They say that the supply of the pendant, in the first place, is bigger in the Asian markets, leading by Japan. Do you happen to know anyone who travels to Asia or lives in Asia?

Thanks einseine, that is great information! I don't know anyone in Asia or anyone travelling there, but I wonder if the Asian boutiques will ship to the US? Do you happen to know? I might try to call one later to see if they would ship.

Hi diana! Sorry, I don't know. I have no experience. Hope they would help you to get one!!!:D I've once got a sweet pendant in gray MOP, which was the LE piece only available from the VCA Online in Japan. I have asked my acquaintance who had her account there.

Hello VCA connoisseurs. Please may I ask a question ( mods please delete/ move if not appropriate) is there a. Vca necklace that comes in mop with sweet hearts, stars & clovers & butterflies in gold? In saw something similar ages ago at a boutique that was limited addition but cannot be sure. I saw a friend wearing one the other day & it was:heart::heart::heart::heart: would a necklace like this have a mop front & a gold back? My bracelets in turquoise & mop are identical front & back framed in gold .

Thank you Tgg for your opinion. I just liked it so much & as I had seen something similar(could have been LE/ magic/ lucky) 5 yrs ago at the store that It did not occur to me that it might be an inspired piece. Thank you again.:flowers::flowers:

It's here!!

It's dark here right now and the gorgeous pink and green flashes are so hard to capture! It's constantly flashing and changing colour which my camera will not focus on 😄
My SA was so sweet and included a birthday card for me!

I feel so lucky and honoured to have this LE necklace. I can't believe it's mine!

OK could you ladies help me before I have a panic attack. I sent my Holiday Pendant in to have 2" added to it with a jump ring at 1" so I can wear shorter. I am assuming that means they will extend a TOTAL of 2", not 2" on each side for a total of 4"? And each strand will be 1" longer and the jump ring at 1/2"? Since the pendant is fixed and cannot slide around, I am guessing each strand will come back the exact same length?

Thanks!!

VCA will add a total of 2 inches and it will distributed evenly on each side.

I just went through this with VCA-- they say they will add up to 3 inches total to a necklace. But they won't neccessarily add three inches because I just got turned down for three. They said only two.
