For the longest time I have been thinking about treating myself to a new Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra Flower necklace like the short one above. I won't even think about the long necklace because I will probably choke on the price tag. I have tried on the necklace but at $7500, I can't make myself take out my credit card without feeling a little faint. But, isn't the red one just so pretty?
Of course with VCA, I know the longer I wait, the higher the price. This same bracelet used to retail for about $4400 and now it is $4650. The rate of increase is faster than inflation which I think is just rude. Anyhoo, despite all this, I think these 2 pieces will be a good buy in the long run. I am sure the price is continue to increase and I will continue to like the collection. One of these day...... *sigh* What is one piece of jewelry you have been drooling after?image: Van Cleef $ Arpels
I like it! ^.^

I love VCA. The bracelet is divine.
ReplyDeleteit's pretty expensive, huh!
ReplyDeletei will forever be drooling to these kind of jewelries!
One piece of jewelry I have been drooling after...a Tiffany Key. I'm obsessed. Though, on a less expensive note, I'm completely smitten with the Rachel Leigh Gumball Ring - so gorgeous! :)
ReplyDeleteI want! :-)
ReplyDeleteXoXo
Gorgeous. Especially for fall xoxo
ReplyDeleteSigh- lovely necklace/bracelet. I would die to have a VCA piece. I also swoon over a David Yurman piece- ring, cuff, watch, necklace, it'd take any and all! lol
ReplyDeleteEver since I saw Reese Witherspoon always wearing her Vancleef necklace, I wanted one. I had no idea they were so expensive!
ReplyDeleteGal pal called me this morning to tell me she likes it too.
ReplyDeleteIf you love Van Cleef but hate the high price, I recommand that you shop for pre-owned or estate VCA pieces from online estate jeweler, Beladora.com.
ReplyDeleteThese are so lovely! I wouldn't say I've got one piece of jewellery I'm wanting but I really like layering all my necklaces together at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI love it...Why so much money? :-(
