Purchased my first pair of Alhambra MOP studs. I’m *done* w Chanel toy earrings.

[@SibyllaMirage]

Congrats!!

[@oliesmumashepherd6130]

I am so glad you decided to return your pendant. Jewelry is to give you joy and happiness, not regret and anxiety. It didn’t matter if anyone else saw the issues, you did, and that is all that mattered.

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you! I completely agree

[@johnbaxter7607]

I wish VCA would use rarer / more unique stones for their Alhambra line. AAA Labradorite would be the first on my wish list. No disrespect btw - The carnelian gem you bought is absolutely gorgeous. :)

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you, it went back...

[@MadamMMStyleIcon]

Glad you’re able to exchange it. So excited for the reveal on Friday!❤

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you very much!!! xoxoxo

[@drdorann]

I passed on the 2023 Holiday pendant last week for the same reason as it was totally flat and did not reflect any light, along with not really liking the color and lack of variation. Did you get a malachite piece?

[@SibyllaMirage]

I will show you in my next video, I don't want to ruin it for you

[@smurfette74]

Glad you took it back and got your dream piece. Fate. But just thinking that if it’d be a VCA novice like me, I would not know what to look for and wouldn’t have seen the defects.

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you, I think after watching my channel you're a pro and know more than some SAs ;)

[@smurfette74]

@@SibyllaMirage haha! I definitely know more than I did before. Thank you for educating us☺️

[@luxurylifestyle7425]

Omgosh!!! lol, I legit thought you were about to show us! 🤣🤣🤣 Anyways, I’m so happy you were able to take it back and replace it with something else! And I’m going to guess that you got the Vintage Alhambra Pendant in Malachite. 💚 I think that’s the next piece that I want, so maybe I just want that for you, haha! ☺️ Oh, and no disrespect to your parents, because maybe they did the best they could, but that breaks my heart that you felt guilty about needing basic items. No child should ever have to feel guilty for needing something as simple as a pair of pants and a coat. It’s not your fault. You were just born. So I’m glad you’re finally at peace and I hope you know now that none of that was ever your fault.

[@SibyllaMirage]

I will show you very soon! :) Thank you very much for saying this about my childhood, I understand now as an adult

[@faronsm]

You are by far my favourite jewelry content creator, and all the videos lately have been 🙌🏻 I can’t wait for the unboxing 🎁 I’m guessing it is … two motif earrings … I don’t know what stone though 🤔

[@SibyllaMirage]

You're so sweet, thank you very much

[@JLOinthecity]

I'm glad you took it back - I knew that they would regardless if you wore it out of the store - if there was a defect/issue.

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you! They helped me, and I didn't feel bad

[@linziibinzii]

I’m glad it worked out in the end and that you had a blast with Yaying 😊 Can’t wait to see what you got - I’m thinking earrings… Hearing about your childhood and how your Mother made you feel/treated you makes me sad. Sending you hugs ❤

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you very much, that's very sweet of you

[@SibyllaMirage]

Haha, glad you know her :D

[@zsmx3]

Listening to you is like hearing myself back! My mama is polish and I have had this constantly my entire life - even until this day! The guilt is real!

[@SibyllaMirage]

Omg, my mom is half polish, this is funny. Yes, the guilt is real :(

[@zsmx3]

@@SibyllaMirage no way! My dziadek was born in Ukraine. We didn’t even know until we found some old documents. & What is it with Polish mama’s?! My friend is Ukrainian and we were talking about the jeans. Also how we had to eat all our food because there are children starving in Africa. What children did I save?! Also my mum always mentions how they had no shoes and that they used a piece of wood as the base of the shoe and then wrapped their foot around it! I guess what they went through, we have strength in our dna! But the way you speak, it’s like me, I’m pisces and quite blunt!

[@SibyllaMirage]

My grandma (my mom's mom) had 8 siblings and all of them lived in Poland, and I never met most of my relatives from that side.. Lmao, we definitely didn't save any children hahaha, I wasn't allowed to leave the table before I finished my meal. My dad came up with another lie, he said that if I eat my food, my boobs would grow, but they never did, what a liar. I love pieces, very direct 🙌 @@zsmx3

[@felicityw5163]

Capricorn here. You know what, Capricorns are good at selling jewellery. I once worked as a part time at mid priced jewellery shop when I was younger and my sales rate was as high as those full timers lol. Even when an angry customer came in and left with a piece after I served her. Lol!

[@SibyllaMirage]

Omg, this is so true, I would have gotten anything from her haha

[@coronadolaw]

She would love the positive feedback from you. Love watching you.

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you xoxoxo

[@coronadolaw]

She said you were so sweet and nice. ❤

[@SibyllaMirage]

Aww

[@ioanad5034]

I am happy they took your problem seriously. I am really upset that such a high end brand has this issue, i told you 2 days ago i had an issue too with a mother of pearl and i couldn’t imagine , ever, that i must come to look under magnifying glass for defects at van cleef…. I will also stand my ground for my issue. ❤ your arguments from the last two videos really help me to be confident and stand my ground

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you so much!! Yes, unfortunately, no piece is safe, like it should be, which makes a purchase stressful.

[@mrsang4802]

I’m sorry that the pendant didn’t work, I double checked my bracelet to make sure it was in excellent shape and it was. Congratulations on your latest piece!

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you

[@CcEsposito]

I grew up middle class but my mom was so cheap and made me feel like we were living in poverty. I was never allowed nice things either. Nice things = the Devil. She’s still this way … sad. Anyway probably why I hoard vca now lol. I always connect with your stories in such a way, you have a beautiful energy thank you for sharing. Congratulations on your new piece! Could it be… a Magic Alhambra? Malachite? Or carnelian vintage earrings? That’s what I’m going with lol can’t wait to see. Xo

[@SibyllaMirage]

Poor thing, hoarding vca now, what a burden.. Lmao, I'm joking of course, I know how you must have felt, and look at me now, I do the exact same thing

[@NhatKySinhVien]

Omg, you brought up the right point about depositing your $$$ and waiting for 3-6 months for your piece to deliver and once it is delivered, it may be a defective piece or the color isn't the color you wanted. Now, you'll have return and get a refund, then re-order another piece. At this time, you've already paid your CC. Plus with a few thousand dollars, you can put in a high-yield savings account to earn 5% or more interest. Why should we want to go through this headache? This is more like we're lending money to Van Cleef for zero-interest return, and they'll use our money for their own investment. Van Cleef is a huge scam.

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you! "This is more like we're lending money to Van Cleef for zero-interest return, but they'll use our money for their own investment.", this is exactly how I feel, well said.

[@totorowtt]

I’ve been to South Coast many times and maybe they had an incident that caused the no dog policy because unfortunately, some dog owners aren’t as responsible. I too grew up in a very low income household, which isn’t a bad thing, but it made me have a drive and ambition to work harder for the luxuries I want. ❤

[@SibyllaMirage]

Definitely makes you work harder...

[@kashhosena3347]

malachite necklance or I mean pendant

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thanks! We shall see soon ;)

[@madokaor3611]

Unfortunately I find many Asian businesses are not pet friendly as they carefully consider those who are afraid of animals I guess. For me, our pets should be included in every part of the environment haha. Anyway I’m guessing u got the malachite or something with diamond. I find the vintage Alhambra pendant with diamond is stunning but the price is insanely high so I’ve been only drooling over it 😂

[@user-qb2sm6uj7w]

Totally agree with all points. Growing up with poms and had 3 poms for 22 years as married couples.…we hope to have more Poms when we are ready to make the commitment 😅 Enjoy Johnny and your new pieces ❤

[@SibyllaMirage]

I completely agree, they are family

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you!!!

[@syrettaflores988]

Your story literally brought tears to my eyes😢.. you should NEVER feel guilty.. you deserve your blessings❤

[@SibyllaMirage]

Awww, thank you very much, you're so sweet.. I am okay with my past experiences now as an adult

[@carriea.7716]

I take my Yorkie everywhere!!! He does have a bag he likes to be carried so I use it when some "karen" has an issue with him walking in a store or mall. Most people don't even notice him in his bag even though he has his head out all the time.

[@SibyllaMirage]

Awww, that's adorable!!!

[@coronadolaw]

She is my SA as well. I forwarded the clip to her.

[@coronadolaw]

She is great. She would love to her the positive feedback.

[@SibyllaMirage]

Haha, thank you, that's so nice of you

[@GainsbyAllie]

So glad you brought it back, it’s unfair to pay so much for a defective piece.

[@SibyllaMirage]

Thank you for your support

Which pendant that you took back ?

The one I unboxed in the previous video :)

[@TutsiJagger]

Wow girl ….. u been through some story . I am from Ukraine and grow up in 80 -90 but I was adopted and my mother try spoiled me as much as she could. We was pretty poor ( single mother work 3 jobs) but she always generous to buy me stuff I wanted. And like you I was looking at my schoolmates and their nice American tennis shoe or jackets and dream it’s will be mine 😲. We have it all now isn’t we? 😜

[@SibyllaMirage]

Oh wow, you're also Ukrainian

[@TutsiJagger]

🙏thank you . She died when I was 16… was nice woman

You were very lucky she was your mom
