I KNOW! The list got longer.... =.=''

Some notes:
My mother prefers the hearts over the Paloma Hugs/Kisses and then Signature.
I am wondering if the "Loving Heart" (#7) will look too chunky on me? It just seems heavier than the rest.

Some Q's that are still unanswered :(
Is it weird to buy hearts for yourself?
Pros and cons of the necklaces attached on both sides to the chain vs. freely moving? (ex.
"Metro Heart" vs. "Heart Charm")
If anyone has any of the above, modelling photos would be so greatly appreciated!!!!
Thanks in advance :yahoo:

no! everyone should love themselves. ;D especially if you just like the design.

I don't like necklaces attached on both sides, since I swap pendants and chains around. it would annoy me if I couldn't mix and match or wear multiple pendants on one chain! plus it doesn't seem to lend itself as well to daily wear.

I just got the key pendant in rose gold, not the diamond one though! so can't help you with that. I love key pendants, so I'm bias towards those. ;) I suggest you go into a Tiffany's and try stuff on! you don't have to buy on the same day, it would just give you a better idea of what looks good on you. be sure to wear earrings/other jewelry you'd like to check for matchyness!


I personally don't like a lot of diamonds. I like things with ONE diamond, or none. so can't really make a choice out of your selections! anyway, go with what YOU like, and you won't regret it! (:
 
I don't think it's weird to buy yourself hearts! I mean, who cares about what other people think. I wear the triple diamond heart pendant my DF bought me and no one has asked me if my DF bought it or how I had come around to getting it. They just compliment it's pretty and that's about it!

This necklace is very dainty and I had it lengthened (for free) to about 17" so the heart sits a bit below my collarbone but sometimes the chain rides up and the hearts falls right in the hollow of my neck. I love it and wear it every day, layered with other necklaces (like my keys) or by itself.

Here is a pic I took with my webcam.

Thanks kohl mascara! How did you get it lengthened for free?! I think antiqueshopper said it would be around $50... :(
How do you like the charm that is connected on both sides compared to the ones that dangle?
Which keys do you have?

Could I please see a photo of your key pendant on you! :nuts: I was considering that one at first too but then decided on white gold!

I am always afraid to just go into Tiffany to try on...I always feel like the SA's expect you to buy on the spot. But I guess I shouldn't feel this way! I AM the customer after all ;)

The chain is made out of platinum, so lengthening/shortening of any gold or platinum metals is free of charge. I could have even lengthened it to 18" for free, but I felt 18" would have been too long for this type of necklace. It is very dbty-ish and has a bunch of sparkle to it.

I think the charm that dangles might get shift a lot from side to side whereas the ones that are hooked on both sides have less of a tendency to do so and stay pretty much still.

I have the large vintage key in sterling silver and the rose gold oval key. Here is my heart layered with the keys:

Oh I love your outfit! So chic!
That's good. I guess I can get my necklace lengthened for free as well then :) But how come they charge extra for the longer chains (like for the keys)?
Which one would you pick for me? :p you didn't make a choice!

Some stores will do it complimentary. You need to build a relationship with a sales associate. The standard price however is $40 for the first inch and $10 each additional. If you request it, they may do it for free. You need to ask for it though.

the smaller silver key is from my mom, and I've had it for over a decade now. I love key pendants. n__n my boyfriend got me the heart key, but if he hadn't gotten it I would've myself (eventually). if you like something, get it! I really don't think it's weird to get heart jewelry for yourself. I would PREFER to get it as a gift since there's more meaning, but either way it's still a nice little piece.

it's harder taking a photo of myself wearing the thing, so for that you'll have to make do with a webcam photo. :p

as you can see, quite tiny, but that's how I like it! the chain is not from tiffany's, but an old one I've always worn my other silver key around.

LOL Sorry! I pick the metro heart. I think I would have gone for that one but I didn't see it in the store. I like that the heart is a little larger than the one I have and still has the bling of diamonds!!!
