I tend to wear my mop more frequently in the Summer. The onyx- year round.
I would be interested in hearing how others wear their mop. I pretty much wear mine as I would pearls. I like to do so casually...like with a nice grey cashmere sweater, jeans, tall boots and an Hermes GM......

That sounds perfect for the MOP.

Here is a quick pic of my large Frivole earrings. No make up and it is a bad pic sorry.
It's hard to hold your hair back and take a pic of your ear with an iPad. LOL
Oh well, here's the pic anyway. 😀View attachment 2813427

So here is my collection to date! 😍 I made some purchases this month to add to my existing MOP motif bracelet, necklace & earrings. I got the Frivole earrings, the perlee hoops and another MOP 10 motif. I also got a medium perlee ring but I think I'm going to swap it for the Frivole pendant. Love my pieces along with my two loves and one JUC. :swoon:View attachment 2814960

Wow, your collection is just stunning.

Wow! What an amazing collection, it is all beautiful. I think mop is my all time favorite on the vintage alhambra but I am wary of buying much more as I fall back into my younger growing up years when mop was for summer dress. Would you mind sharing with me all the ways you wear it - especially in the fall and winter? I would really appreciate it. I'm not the most creative of the group apparently. :wondering

For the winter, I think an all black outfit with MOP necklace and earrings would be stunning. I think doing high contrast makes it look intentional and very wintery! I'm thinking I might wear this combo to a holiday party this year. Onyx would look great with a jeweled colored dress but wearing onyx with an all black outfit might be a bit too predictable for my taste.

I'm very predictable and boring because one of my favorite looks is a sleeveless black sheath dress, tall boots, black box Kelly and an onyx 20 motif.

not boring and predictable, chic and classic

Just the right amount of classy and chic.

Sounds perfect Candice.
I'm like that about my black leggings. My wardrobe staple is pieces by Eileen Fisher in black, gray and the occasional white.

Eileen Fisher makes great pieces! my favorite designer is Pink Tartan. I have this dress in multiple colours and I usually wear at least one a week! I don't have this red but I have this dress in black, eggplant, navy blue, indigo etc

Candice I love this dress! What a great choice. I also tend to buy multiple colours in items I like and fit well on me.

Gorgeous collection. WG/MOP is my favorite and my first VCA purchase. Enjoy!

Texasgirliegirl....me too!!! I am so glad you responded to my question as I was starting to believe that I was a generation way too old and just couldn't adjust to that fact. I have my mikomoto pearls and diamond studs but I so love the mop that I hope all you ladies who wear it year around chime in! Texasgirliegirl...big hugs!!!!

I have WG/MOP and also find I wear it less in the winter, therefore you raise a great question Stylemechanel on how to wear this in the winter. A grey cashmere sweater, as TGG says, is perfect. Worn as you would wear pearls, or as an alternative to pearls is how I would wear it. But I must say, I have't worn my MOP/WG for a month now!
