This time I tried my unicorn ! The magic 16 motif in white gold. Looooove the motifs esp the grey MOP which were gorgeous !

I think it depends on the outfit and the personality of the person. I am a minimalist, I like to have one special piece stand out instead of stacking so I can see how this can be too much. I do hope to get the Perlee Clover soon, and I plan to wear it on its own, but I also plan on purchase the pave and stacking it when I feel like being a bit bold, lol!

I am a very simple dresser and I prefer one standout piece - a blouse, jewelry, handbag or makeup. I absolutely love all the three pieces that the YouTuber wore and apart from the white gold set, she even has Perlee clover ring/bracelet in YG. In the picture I posted, I didn't like the bold makeup, sequin blazer and the stack of three Perlee bracelets fighting for attention. Once again, just my personal preference :heart:

No offence taken! I truly wish I didn’t like the combo [emoji6]

It’s fun to have discussion. I like to see other’s likes and dislikes. Wish I would dislike more often than like though. These threads have been impactful to me as I have paid attention to things I would likely not have noticed and tried on my own.
I soooo feel your pain...that combo is harsh on my wallet. lol
 
Really beautiful! You will bring it home one day! [emoji177]
I have the same elusive unicorn, but mine is in yellow gold... I really want this... I did purchase the VCA Magic bracelet and it is my favorite of my entire collection. The White MOP, the Grey MOP, the Black Onyx in Yellow gold and hanging dangling large pendant on chain attached to the bracelet is so amazing and hypnotic ! Women and men can't stop looking at it... and neither can I. lol

Depends on the individual and your style. I am definitely a “more is more” kinda person!!! [emoji8]
It depends on your personal style... More is more if you ask me... but I have been stacking since the 1988, I'm a man and my Wife loves it on me... and mostly everyone else does like it on me...Now I even have her stacking her Tiffany, because that's what she loves and only wants me to buy her... she has so much now, she can alternate bracelets... and in the beginning, she felt the same way about stacking, but now... she is a stack person.

All of these just appear too excessive IMHO.
More is not always more...........

It is funny, I follow swedishandstylish and don’t remark on the bling when it shows up on my feed. But when Rami00 put this fun collage together, I felt the same as you. I think it isn’t the stack, it is the stack plus the exotic h plus the Chanel or Gucci or whoever outfit.... that becomes overload. bless her on being able to have what she has and grateful she shares so we can all ogle. I feel for myself a desire to be more low key.
 
My SA told me that before they took in any repairs or cleaned a piece they would require the original sales receipt. When I was in the store a few months ago, I asked, (while trying other pieces), if they could steam clean my fleurette necklace. They told me it would need to be sent to New York and that in order to do so they would need the original sales receipt.

This change in policy is absolutely ridiculous. This was at the Beverly Hills store.

I have rarely made such a request. The refusal to do so as a matter of course, which every jeweler I have ever known has offered to do so, really turned me off.
Thins is outrageous. I wonder if this policy change is due to people bringing in super fakes for a back food authetication by asking pieces to be cleaned.

Yes, @doloresmia exactly what I was going to say. It’s not just the stack, it’s the stack on top of the outfit on top of the shoes on top of the bag. That definitely looks excessive and showy. I tend to dress more minimalist.
