Went quickly to their website and saw no modeling pics of other items. Sighs ! No stores in my city. Double sighs!

You have the fierce look. That's why you can carry different styles in clothing and jewelry.

You are so kind! Yes, it's hard to find modeling photos. The best I could find was their YouTube channel and their Instagram.

I love how you call it "the fierce look"!!! xoxoxo

I picked up the large hoop earrings to match the ring. They're actually very light. I'm just waiting on PB corporate to send my store the backs so I can wear the flowers as studs. Within the next year or so I plan to add the smaller rings, a few of the bracelets and a necklace. I'm really happy to mix and match these pieces with VCA.

The earrings looks gorgeous on you! Keepers!

I am always inspired every time I see a face shot... you are beautiful! I especially love your eye makeup in this photo, great contouring, neutral yet so elegant looking (note to self: need to practice the Notorious Pink eyeshadow look).

I've seen these bracelets many times, but they never looked like snakes to me...until now. Maybe its how she's holding the apple, in complete abandon. :P

Oh yes my friend! The Bulgari Serpenti collection is all about the creepy snake! :biggrin:
Liz Taylor made it famous back when she was filming Cleopatra. If you can get past the snake, it's so iconic to me. Here is a great article for you and any other Serpenti lovers:

Have been away from the forum for a while and imagine my surprise to come back to this thread to find it FULL of posts about one of my fav designers Pasquale Bruni!! I am obsessed with the Garden Segreti and Petit Garden lines, and and feel that almost no one ever seems to talk about or have heard of the collection, guess that has changed, haha.

Absolutely love all the pieces on you, @Notorious Pink, and love your blouse in the photo above. Didn't realize more pieces have been added to the collection recently, am going to have to try them on now!

I have a few rings from the PB Petit Garden series - a bit smaller in scale than the ones @Notorious Pink posted. I first came across these a number of years ago when considering Frivole BTF, and ended up getting a set of 3 of these instead for less than the cost of the Frivole. While I love the Frivole, I find these eminently wearable for everyday, and I mix and match the different pieces for bolder or more subtle looks in WG/PG. Ended up with the large WG pave, small RG pave, and the WG leaf ring - here are some pics of me trying different combos while in the store.

They're pretty good about that. Just checked - the ring is no longer on the website.

Not to enable any further :graucho: , but I found this on Instagram and it's definitely goals for me. It's three rings - the white flower, the rose gold flower, and a wg leaf ring.

I have this exact combo (except I have the larger WG ring and smaller RG ring - these flowers look to be the same size) and love wearing them with the leaf in this cluster. Makes for a fun 3D look

They're the "regular" size, not the "small" ones. lol, they're the ones that cost about $7850. I believe the small ones have about .74 carats of diamonds and the regular ones have 1.45 carats.

I tried on these too. They are really gorgeous, but also not for every day. They're also a real PITA to get on, the flower is in two parts and then you have to put the back on.

May I ask if you tried on the small size of the WG pave in addition to the regular? Did you feel there was a significant difference in their appearance? I actually bought the small size along with my rings a few years ago - you can see me wearing them in the store pic in the above post, but I returned them as they seemed too small and didn't catch the light well, at least not the way they sat on my ears when I looked in the mirror. I know you like bolder jewelry and since you are considering them am wondering if I should request these for try-on. Didn't realize there was a size between the small and the 2-piece ones, which I also felt seemed unwieldy and wouldn't get much use.

These pieces are gorgeous.
The earrings you are wearing but one size up, same ones that BBC tried on, are on my list. They look so pretty and wearable. And I think they will compliment my lotus. Just waiting to get to a store once covid is better. I have found most people don’t know the brand and I was not familiar until this thread!

thank you!!! yes, I feel like Bruni has really hones the designs in this collection to more proportioned, wearable pieces. Love the mix and match aspect of some of them, too.

I have the one ring now, but I plan to add two of the regular size flowers (pg and wg) and a leaf, too.

I don’t tend to go for smaller earrings, so I only tried on the regular size. I tried on the smaller hoops but didn’t like them at all on me. I’m thrilled that I picked up the larger ones. :hbeat:

oh, by the way, the top is actually a dress from Zimmermann.
