Was happy with my holiday decision until I received some opinions on it..

I had a great night with the bf at the flagship Tiffany's, we went through the store and he let me talk his ear off about all the jewelry. Together we picked out my gift and he gifted me the rubedo arrow zeigfeld necklace. I had the vision of doing arrows, so I decided to purchase the pave jazz arrow to layer with the arrow he gave me. I wore the combo out for the first time and my cousins (who were not trying to be mean just honest) said the pave was underwhelming and didn't sparkle and comes off as silver. Idk if it was the lighting in the room we were in or what, but now I'm very torn and I don't know what to do. Should I return the pave? I really like the combo but I don't want to invest in something that doesn't look like it's worth what I paid for it. Any and all honest opinions are Welcomed! Hope everyone had a good holiday!

I like it! I'm not very picky. I like the design layered like you did it. It's hard to know what it looks like IRL from a photo, but it looks sparkly enough to me. The lighting is not going to be bright in most situations.

I like the pave better than a plain silver, because it's a little less matchy, but stills looks stylish.
 
I like the way they look together, but then, I'm not a very blingy person! The sparkle may show up more if you wear them against bare skin instead of against a sweater. But it's OK to be understated, KWIM?
 
I'm really surprised it's not super sparkly! When you look at it, does it seem like it's not as sparkly as it could be? Could it just need to be cleaned?
 
It's a really pretty necklace, and I like it paired with the other arrow necklace. I personally would not invest $1500 in the Tiffany one, but I don't care too much about branded jewelry. I like what appeals to my eyes, regardless of brand. But if YOU love it, then keep it! Don't let other people's opinions change your mind if you truly do love the necklace. Or is there something else you've got in mind that you think would make you happier?

That's exactly my reaction too, I tried on the rose gold, and then the next day I quickly ran in to buy the platinum one and didn't stay long because there's an SA I try to avoid at the store I went to and she was hovering. I don't know why it's not sparkling the way it does I tried taking another pic near the window in a different lighting ImageUploadedByPurseForum1388091919.707934.jpg I enjoy the combo, and would honestly pay more for more sparkle. Even if it's minuscule Tiffany's should sparkle, very torn right now and wondering what the best way to go would be. Rubedo is definitely staying since that was picked for me, I wish there was some way to make it sparkle, that's why I went for platinum. Looks like I'll never get rid of this credit lol...
