The sweet Alabama butterfly is cute and unique. Definitely keep it.

[@jenluxe]

❤️❤️❤️👍🏻

[@SundayRose99]

Immediately clicked 👍🏼 when I saw your intro on actually burning the VCA candle instead of most people who just keep it. These things are to be enjoyed and used as it reflects that you truly know how to enjoy luxury ♥️🎉🙌🏼😍🥰

[@jenluxe]

Thanks dear!!! Sorry missed this comment ❤️❤️❤️ yes I love the scent lollll

[@jenn9371]

Pay no attention to stupid comments from people! You have a fantastic collection! This info is helpful for those considering these various pieces. It sounds like you are getting some good wear out of them, which is nice to hear.

[@jenluxe]

Thanks! Yes they are super well used ❤️

[@Liz86000]

Gorgeous collection. Definitely keep the sweet, it’s beautiful.

[@jenluxe]

Thank you dear ❤️❤️❤️

[@catherineofsweden24]

Thanks for sharing. I really enjoy how you present and your thought 💭 process 💕👏🏻

[@jenluxe]

Thanks Catherine ❤️

[@ytaddict3749]

Thank you very much my Dear, your video helped to deciding to choose white gold instead of yellow gold 🥰

[@jenluxe]

❤️❤️❤️ great!

[@lori3553]

Butterfly was my 2nd vca piece. I fell out of love after abt one year. Same feeling - pendant too small for ‘grown ups”. Upgraded to magic onyx long chain and never looked back.

[@jenluxe]

😉 same feeling ! It was my second too!! Lol

[@mahjonkooi]

Would you recommend different types of stone for pendant and bracelet? Or you would prefer to wear them in similar stone?

[@jenluxe]

Hmm I think it’s ok to mix Eg I don’t have a carnelian pendant yet 😆😆

[@evelynmelian-glick436]

Love the entire selection!

[@lisalau5144]

Hello, Jen. You have a lovely VCA collection 😍 I’m planning to get my first VCA and I enjoy watching your videos. I’m still undecided to get which necklace with pendant. Like the MOP but thinking of getting one that I can wear 24/7 for my first VCA. Maybe vintage Alhambra carnelian. Will go to the boutique to try and then decide. 😃

[@jenluxe]

Hey Lisa thanks! Yes I love carnelian am also considering a pendant or maybe earrings 😅 do let me know what you end up getting!

[@helpchow]

Hi Jenn, I love your taste and have been watching you for awhile now. You look beautiful. What eyeshadow palette are you using to create this look. I have the sweet Alhambra butterfly and I still love it.

[@jenluxe]

Thanks dear! ❤️ this is the palette from viseart 😀 a rosy one …aww yes it’s such a pretty butterfly

[@evelynmelian-glick436]

Love your collection! N where can I buy your white shirt?

[@jenluxe]

Thank you dear ❤️ it’s Zara

[@lindac6293]

Hi! Came across your video while searching for bracelets . The white gold mop looks so pretty . Are the clip backs on the earrings comfortable? I've had omega backs & they were so uncomfortable after an hour or 2 .

[@jenluxe]

Yup they are ❤️ hmm what are omega backs? Not too sure

[@lindac6293]

@@jenluxe Omega backs are similar to the ones on your earrings , but , they're wider .

[@msyang7915]

I have subscribed :) Love your calm attitude. You have good taste. It would be helpful if you can include prices or even rough price estimate. 🥰

[@jenluxe]

Thank you dear! The prices are on the website 😊

[@MrJasonb06]

Hi could you please share the wear and tear on the white gold pieces since white gold tends to show a yellow hue over time? Many thanks!

[@jenluxe]

So far so good 😊 it’s been almost a year

[@petitestylesbygem3058]

Hi Jen, I recently got a sweet alhambra in Carnelian as well. From watching your VCA videos I recall you shower with your 5 motif carnelian bracelet, if I may ask, do you by any chance use a loofa or any exfoliator and did it do anything at all on the stones of your bracelet? Im asking because I do use a luufa religiously😅 and I plan on wearing the bracelet regularly even in the shower, my concern is the luufa will scratch the stone… I hope tO hear back! Thanks for your helpful videos! And love your collections! 🥰 oh and Im Gem by the way🥰

[@jenluxe]

Hi gem congrats! I would not use the loofah on the bracelet at all 😊 I didn’t cover them but I avoid purposely getting soap on the stones … hope that helps!

[@mayavu9986]

Hi Jen, you mentioned you had your Carnelian bracelet 24/7, you showered and exercised with it. How is it holding up today? Did you notice any shrinkages? I want to get Carnelian too, and I do not want to keep taking it off every time I shower. Currently I have the Guilloche bracelet and I wear 24/7.

[@jenluxe]

Hello there!! No problems so far ❤️

[@bflorida8469]

I purchased the Carnelian motif bracelet as well. I understand it's a very great stone and will last better without changing colors. I sold my Mother of pearl and black onyx bracelets. I just wasn't wearing them. Too difficult to put on and take off. I do love the Red Carnelian as well. I sold my GUILLOCHE as well. I found I have enough Yellow gold bracelets. The red is lovely 😍 ENJOY!

[@jenluxe]

Yea no regrets for the carnelian! That’s why I gave yet to buy mop bracelets because it’s super hard to remove and put on. Congrats! 🎈

[@bflorida8469]

@@jenluxe I decided to go to Cartier and I purchased a LOVE CUFF. Not the LOVE BRACELET The Cuff goes on so easily and it's easy to remove. It's a keeper ❤️

[@jenluxe]

@@bflorida8469 congrats! 🎊🍾

[@nantidap5562]

white gold pendant looks gorgeous on you!

[@jenluxe]

Thanks very much ❤️

[@Kimmiee168]

Did you end up keeping the butterfly vca?

[@jenluxe]

Nooo 🫢 should have kept it though lol

[@toughangel17]

The White MOP looks great! I am leaning more towards getting the white over gold lately.

[@jenluxe]

Try it out!! I love it so much ❤️

[@sharonozvenom]

I love those mother of pearl earrings 😍

[@jenluxe]

🥰🥰🥰

[@kisusha]

I wanted sweet Alhambra necklace, but glad didn’t buy it, I didn’t like the idea of fastening moving front near the pendant, for that reason only😊 I love your carnelian 5 motif bracelet😍

[@jenluxe]

Thank you dear!! ❤️ yes it does move about lol

[@chiayeehsu4970]

Hi Jen. I’m going back to kl to visit my family and was wondering if you gimme ur details for your SA at VCA? I have one in aus but would like to buy something in Malaysia and hopefully they have the sizes. Thanks.

[@jenluxe]

Hi you can look for Angie ❤️

[@lisac4225]

I have the Vintage holiday mother of pearl with Diamond but seeing this video again oh no I think I have to go try on because the white gold is SLO’s looks best mop in the white because like you said it makes the vintage size look bigger without too big and more understated. Okay you are not helping my piggy bank 😅😅😅 ps your ears are perfect!

[@jenluxe]

Aww thanks Lisa ❤️ ur holiday pendant must be sooo pretty! Yea you just try the WG version and see if you like it 👯👯

[@mangoqueen825]

My favorite is the butterfly 🦋

[@jenluxe]

Awww you are making me love it more now

[@pochantassoreal9808]

Does your carnelian Alhambra have any gaps in between the stones?

[@jenluxe]

You mean between the gold part and the stone? No definitely not

[@pochantassoreal9808]

Thank you for replying I love watching your videos!!!!

[@jenluxe]

@@pochantassoreal9808 thank you!!

[@msbnjklbnmjkln4482]

how about the green stone malachite stone?

[@jenluxe]

Love the look but it’s a very fragile stone 🌟

[@yongpo241]

Hello, I’m looking to get a simple present, necklace / bracelet for my partner. Do you have any recommendation for a starter piece.

[@jenluxe]

Hi I would recommend a vintage Alhambra pendant ! There are many stones available so it depends on your personal preference 😊

[@lulubananaz7028]

would love to know what's on your VCA wishlist!

[@jenluxe]

So many!! Looking at perlee and will be sharing another vlog soon! 🌟

[@Superwoodwinked]

Hello, I finally got the 5 motif! I am size 14 in Cartier and the SA recommended shortening the links (12 links) even though I said I don’t mind one motif dangling. Currently the SA said i cld remove 4 links in total (1cm) each such that I can have it shortened slightly so I can still have one motif dangling. If you have any thoughts I’d love to hear! Thank youuu. Shld I remove 4 links! 😝

[@jenluxe]

Hello dear I still did not remove haha in case you wanna combine it with another bracelet to make a necklace next time! Congrats ❤️

[@myprecioussuggies9918]

Hi how old are you?
