Your collection is hardly humble!!
Many people dream of having what you just aquired.
Have you already started thinking about what's next? It's a true addiction, you know
Yes!!! So true. I'm thinking of adding the cosmos pave pendant to compliment my Frivole btf ring and earrings (the frivole pendant being the same size as the earrings just felt a bit small), and the socrate 3 motif earrings and pendant to compliment my socrate btf ring. I'm also considering the VA onyx 20 motif and small cosmos pave ring.... I feel embarrassed to go on as my list is just ridiculous and endless. But I feel everything is so timeless that I could slowly add on piece by piece.
Yes your collection is definitely not humble. You have some pieces people can only dream of having. The pave frivole earrings and either a 10+10 or 20 motif vintage alhambra yellow gold mother of pearl necklace are both on my wish list but I will probably need to wait a few more years to acquire them as I bought one of my dream pieces not too long ago
I can't wait to see what else you add to your collection. You are already off to a beautiful start
Thank you so much allure244! Oooh, what did you get?
They are available in the USA. I don't think they are being discontinued.
Have you tried online?
I vote for the onyx 20 motifYes!!! So true.

I got the two butterfly between the finger ring with yellow sapphires and diamonds.
I never got around to doing a reveal but here's a picture of me wearing the ring for the first time at the boutique a few years back. I kept thinking about the ring and finally decided to just take the plunge. I love her to pieces.

Congratulations!! I have the same one and I love it!!
I vote for the onyx 20 motif
The onyx 20 motif is just so effortless isn't it? Sigh, why oh why does vca make such irresistible designs? What is your favourite piece in your collection at the moment?
Thanks.
I would always 
over your pictures with the ring. Now that I have one, I'm trying to wear the ring as often as I can so the ring doesn't seem as expensive to me as the cost per wear will be lower Tough question!
Diamond frivole earrings perhaps.
I love my new LE gray mop pendant.
Perlee bracelet.
I've got a few LE vintage necklaces that I love but rarely actually wear.
My most worn pieces are the large frivole yg earrings.

Oh wow it is AMAZING on you! I tried on the pink sapphire and diamond version but it didn't agree with me as well as the florals
Congratulations on such a lovely piece!Frivole is such a feminine and wearable design, I'm glad I'm earring twins with you on that one!

Thanks
I also tried on the pink sapphire version but the pink blended into my skin tone more while the yellow popped. Is this what you meant by didn't agree with you or was it more the style? If it was the issue of color, perhaps you should try the yellow sapphire version sometime 
Thank you. I'm so glad I got this to start my vca collection, very versatile and stand out at the same time.Congratulations! Perfect choice for your first VCA piece. I always come back to this pendant and keep thinking maybe I should add it to my collection.
TGG, thank you for helping me in getting this pendant. It works so well with my wardrobe and "pop" on it without being overwhelmed but understated, which I love. Yes I enjoy wearing it Em hap banh bot loc va banh it, chi tuyet len an sang luon nhe pieces at home) and still cannot believe I got this
This pendant is very affordable in terms of cost per wear, IMO. I am not a fan of onyx at all and afraid that could make me look old but it looks chic and young instead. Next on my list is yg frivole earrings, sorry but I am not a fan of clover motif earrings and perlee rings with stones but I love all pg perlee ring, so chic and great for stacking or wearing alone.Congrats! It looks so pretty on you! I have the exact same one and I adore it! I would love to know what other pieces you are thinking of getting next that might complement the pendant! I have been obsessing over getting something to go with it, but it is so hard to find something that would work and is within my budget. I considered the Sweet onyx earrings to match, but they seem too small. I've also contemplated the onyx Perlee ring but I'm not sure that would make much of a statement. I recently bought the Sweet MOP Alhambra bracelet as I think it could sorta go with the pendant, but I'm not totally sold on it. Would love to know your thoughts!!!!
