Does anyone have pictures of a sweet or vintage alhambra pendant layered with a diamond (or colored gemstone) solitaire pendant ? :smile1:
Or any layering pictures with the single motif pendants actually :smile1:. Do you layer them with other brands ? I've seen pictures with bracelets, I don't remember necklace pictures.

Here's a picture I posted before in the old VCA discussion thread (post #7848) of a tiffany DBTY with a vintage alhambra pendant

I just purchased two 10 motif in onyx and I ❤️😍❤️ them! They are perfect for my wardrobe.
I also have the 5 motif all YG bracelet that I wear all the time, as pigleto said even in the shower. 😀
I love that the all YG is so versatile and worry free.
The 20 all YG is first on my 2015 list. 😀

Hi P, I see you have been building your VCA collection fast :) Congratulations on all the beautiful pieces! Love them on you :smile1: I am very tempted by the Frivole earclips… VCA has way too many stunning pieces and I have never felt this way with any other brand before… But back to business, I think I am getting my first this Christmas- most likely the 10 motif necklace in YG. Calling for an order tomorrow :graucho:

Hi there Cvalier, here is a picture I posted in October. It is the holiday pendant with my DBTY necklace ImageUploadedByPurseForum1416881168.114545.jpg

Sorry about the size sending from my iPhone. I still do not know how to size the photos. 😃

I own both. I bought the frivole first and then got very interested in the lotus. I debated for a long time whether owning both would be unnecessary duplication, but decided I had to have them. I have never regretted the decision and honestly I wear the lotus as much as I wear the frivole.

I may have a comparison picture of the lotus and the frivole......I'll look around but until then...... ETA: I found the picture!





The first picture that caught my attention was a picture by one of our members...surfergirljen

Cung, I was finally able to try on the small and large yellow gold frivole at the same time (hard to find both sizes at the same location) and while the small were cute, I felt that the large definitely made much more of a statement. I also have long hair and I usually leave it down so I felt that the large size suited me better. I would try on both sizes if you can. As soon as I compared, I had no doubt I liked the larger size on my frame better

My dream would be to have the small pave ones. Maybe someday :D
The pave ones are beyond gorgeous but I feel that they are pretty dressy and I wanted an earring I could wear more everyday. If you know that you definitely want the pave ones and you have the budget for it, I would buy them now as the price will eventually go up. Or you can get the gold ones first after you decide on the size and then consider the pave ones later.

I would love to try on both small and large version to see the difference but not yet have the chance... Do you take photos when you tried it on to compare? If yes pls share with me. I am still debating between the two sizes and could not decide without seeing them IRL. I know the large has more presence but with my face and body size, petite with very small face and hands... the small may fit me better. Decisions, decisions... Maybe I would postpone the earrings purchase and get the gold 10 motif necklace first, that one I have no doubt what I want and love... My wallet is crying now :graucho::graucho:

I don't layer my sweet and my Tiffany dbty necklace. Because they don't look good at all together!!!! This is not a modeling pic, but just FYI.;)
