Hiii I'm alive haha

Just haven't been on TPF in a few years now...kinda dropped off around the time I moved to LA and then Instagram became popular and I was too lazy to keep up with both.

And around last year, I took a social media break so my IG account is still alive but not activated for now.

I also had no idea they discontinued this necklace either? I've actually never seen this on anyone else even tho I see a ton of VCA pieces worn around where I am...I just figured this wasn't a very popular piece?




Hi hi...haha thanks for letting people know I'm still alive!

I'm not back on Instagram yet for now but I will be at some point...so my account is just like in this suspended state mode until I reactivate it.

Do you have this necklace too?

Wonder if anyone else on TPF has this piece...[emoji173]️

Calisnoopy!!!!! GREAT to see you!!! I've missed your beautiful smiling face and your amaaaaaaing collection!!! [emoji322][emoji8][emoji254]
 
Thank you for asking. I have 2 pieces of VCA, my YG 10 motif and 1 month ago I got the mini YG frívoli earrings. I had the MOP vintage YG Pendant and sold it because I felt the Pendant was kinda skimpy for my taste. Now the first item on wish list is the New York WG Magic Pendant, the onyx one. I thought it can add variety to what I own and I love it. I am going tomorrow, or later today to check out the other versions of the Magic Pendant to try it on. I do mix my metals usually. I think YG looks the best on me but love WG for the "edgy, clean" look. I really do love how the 10 motif looks on you. After the Magic Pendant and maybe 1 year from now I will be able to buy the second 10 motif to make a 20. Or maybe that 6 motif Magic Pendant. Or maybe I will just be a good girl and not get anymore VCA.
Can't wait to see what you decide.
I finally took the plunge and got myself the frivole pave in wg. How did your visit go? New York WG magic pendant in onyx, I have never seen that one before. Did you try it on? Eye candy?

I am going to be totally biased and enabler, I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. I tried them on and knew "yes, these are the ones" I live for that feeling and those pieces lol These frame your face so perfectly, right amount of bling and size...I wear neutral, clean lines and these add the perfect pizzazz to my outfits. I hope you get them :flowers:

Calisnoopy!!!
We’ve missed you!!!

Hi hi lol

Great to see you back sgain!

I have the white gold long necklace and bracelet that I wear joined together for a longer necklace and and two of the yellow gold necklaces that I wear joined together. I got the yellow gold rights before the design was "rested" and convinced VCA to make me the white gold right after it was rested.

Your modeling pictures were part of what convinced me that I wanted this beautiful design in my collection!

I like you have no idea why they would rest such a beautiful design

Aww that's so cute...had no idea my pics inspired that do you have pics of yours on here too?

I'm sure I'll find it later when I'm on my laptop...a bit harder to navigate stuff on the mobile web version of TPF...

Are your 2 YG ones 2 short length ones like mine? And do they together measure as long as your single WG long one? Just curious hehe


Backing up sbelle - your collection is VERY inspiring. I looked at your photos often. Pls come back soon!

❤ I'm not actually "fully" back right now but I did want to drop in and say hi

Oops -- sorry for all the typos above. :blush: I was trying to correct them when I accidentally posted instead -- I am on my IPad and can't edit .

No worries...happens to me all the time too...or my dog would jump on my phone or iPad screen (he's only 3.5 lbs) and ends up typing a bunch of random letters on my screen haha

Stalking you calisnoopy. We miss you. I bought that Alhambra necklace and the bracelet after I saw it in the boutique...but esp after your modeling pix. I hear you're on IG...under this name? We miss you. :heart::heart:

Hi there! Lol...I'm starting to think a lot of DHs on here might not like me jkkk, hopefully not!

I was on IG but kinda took a social media break the past few months now...so my IG account is deactivated for now but whenever I choose to reactivate it...everything in my IG history will pop back up like before...

I'll try to post on here when I'm back I guess? ‍♀️

But yap...it's the same username as my TPF one..

Hello, I recently received YG 10 motif Alahmbra necklace. I definitely need an extender, my question is whether the extender is detachable? I would like to get another 10 motif necklace in the future and am not sure how it would look with extender. Thank you in advance for your reply.
 
Hi hi...yap that's me from an old pic! Can't believe I've had it this long!

And yap...this is with 2 short length necklaces worn/clipped together as a long necklace ☺

I think at the time I had the option to buy 1 single long one or 2 short ones...don't quote me on that tho cos it's been so long and could be remembering incorrectly...

I don't think there was much of a price difference between buying 1 single long one vs 2 short ones tho I don't know if the 1 single long one was longer/shorter than the 2 short ones clipped together.




Sometimes I wear them as a bracelet too if I wrap them around several times ❤️



Hiii I'm alive haha
