A bit of Sunday afternoon eye candy from my very first trip to a boutique!
So glad you got to try on all of the flowery pieces at VCA! Anything catch your eye in particular?

And this piece is never in a million years, but it's the most beautiful watch I've ever tried on.
Not VCA, of course, but I'm including them anyway.
Love that HW EC ring!

I really wanted to try on the onyx and diamond vintage Alhambra bracelet that you and DS have, but they didn't have one in stock. I've been in love with that piece ever since you got yours!
Happy Easter everyone!
I just fainted….stunning omg

@diamondseeker2006 I love your new MOP bracelet and necklace!! I think the VCA MOP is so lovely and feminine, and very wearable!

Okay, here are two of my latest acquisitions....just some basic mop pieces to wear in the summer! Both have beautiful iridescence but these pics don't really show it except on the pendant in the second picture. Thanks so much to @m-2-b for her help in examining the pendant for me at the boutique!
These are gorgeous! I've been eyeing the earrings and bracelet in the WG/MOP because it would be so perfect for summer wear. I know you will enjoy these and wear them often!

The new ruby mini!! D’you have any more photos of this by chance!? What did you think of it? This is the one piece I’m intrigued by, from the latest release! But they aren’t available in my country…

Not a very good one, I'm afraid! Hope this photo is of some help. I thought it was beautiful and the color was really lovely, but I was more drawn to the diamond pieces. I'm in the USA, btw.

How fun!!! I especially love the Cosmos and Frivole necklaces! Their watches are certainly special works of art! So much beauty in one place! Glad you were able to visit a boutique!

My new lovely turquoise Lucky butterfly, joining the blue family (missing are the RdN's which are not with me right now). Sorry for the blurry pics. It's very cloudy where I am right now.

I'm working towards this piece.
www.vancleefarpels.com
But the price is painful. Would it be too risky to look into preloved at a reputable reseller?

I thought Ann’s had one few days ago but honestly the price isn’t going to be substantially less for this piece preloved. Few hundred bucks if that.

So ladies I guess it’s the week of turquoise as I have gotten my hands on 5 motif wg Alhambra in excellent condition. It just came back from workshop where all motifs were replaced.
What an amazing acquisition, @Missie1 !
Loving all of the turquoise pieces on here lately!

Oh my goodness. Brand new motifs!! What a find & replace job!!! Congrats @Missie1, I know this has been a bucket list piece for you for a while now - when you go all in you go *all* in
It's spectacular in your stack
How long did the motif replacement take? Did the piece go to Paris? Did you specify anything about the shade of turquoise you wanted?
Thanks so much. I was floored to be able to get my hands on it
