The necklace looks beautiful on you! In my opinion, the necklace fall perfectly on the right spot of your collarbone and looks so flattering on you. You always get the prettiest jewellery. Love all your collections ❤❤❤

[@reshmi_beautyaroundtheworld]

Gorgeous addition❤ I wear my Carnelian 24/7 over a year 😊

[@missepicure_sg]

It is more size appropriate for stacking. Goes well with your skin tone. Good choice. I own both sizes and I prefer vintage size on its own. Sweet looks nicer higher. Also I feel extra length makes entanglement probability higher.

[@CeeinOC]

Aw this necklace is so you 😊 think the length looks great as is!

[@rubiirae]

This is my very 1st VCA piece too, love the pop of red. I opted not to lengthen the chain because like you said, the length is already good on its own, and usually when I layer with other necklaces, I just do the necklace hack where you hook them all together into one long necklace then wrap around your neck before you close the last clasp. That way you can adjust the length between the necklaces how where each pendant sit around your neck & chest, plus they won't get tangled up like it would happen if you just wear them separately. If you really want the extra length, just buy a separate extender chain, that way you won't have to shell out $180 for VCA to remove the extra length if you even change your mind a few years down the road.

[@KatL]

Thank you for the advice! Where did you get the chain extender?

[@CapeCodBelle]

I love it! The length is perfect and the carnelian is gorgeous!!

[@fredvisaya]

I absolutely love it! So beautiful! Length is perfect too. ❤️

[@katharinerasnake1119]

I'd suggest leaving it the length it is. It is the perfect length. I'm glad you are enjoying your purchase. The carnelian is a great choice.

[@ClaraZeela]

Congrats it’s beautiful !! Good size for your active lifestyle !!

[@annecy1903]

wow... beautiful!! that little touch of red suits you so well. And so do your gorgeous red lips 🤩

[@KatL]

Thank you so much!!

[@kellyanderson6889]

I bought my first piece in November. :) its a vintage pendant necklace. I want to get another one.

[@silvanasam7151]

Looks fabulous! Length is perfect ….now I want one too! Lol😊 perfect excuse that I don’t wear much Color as well and red is for good luck!

[@kaylheecarroll3186]

Beautiful necklace, looks great on you ❤😊

[@DIEGOmeter]

Congratulations! Theb long wait to get it extended probably might not be worth it just to get a little more gold specially if you know that you won't wear it that long anyway. I think the current length is perfect in you. 🤩

[@titisummer]

Congratulations absolutely beautiful piece of jewellery ❤ ❤❤

[@KatL]

Thank you so much 😊

[@CharlotteLurch-Winston]

This necklace is absolutely stunning on you! I also love your beaded bracelet, could you please tell me where you purchased it?

[@KatL]

It’s also a carnelian bracelet that I got from a local store that sells semi-precious stones . No brand, just a bracelet for astrology

[@CharlotteLurch-Winston]

@@KatL Thanks so much! Do you know if they sale online? If so could you please provide the name of the store.

[@AnUrbanGypsy]

Wow, beautiful! Really suits you. Don’t extend this one. I have the next size up in MOP but honestly, I’d have them in every colour! Love them. For me it’s definitely an occasional piece of jewellery due to its delicate nature but that’s what makes it special to me. If I wore it daily I’d tire of it quickly. Mine was extended by an extra 4-5cm to make it fit correctly as I am a bit of a fatty, however, I got the impression they don’t like doing it if the pendant sits where it’s supposed to. The cut off tag is a bit of a disappointment, haven’t seen those before. I didn’t get any ribbon on my box and it’s silly, I know, but I’m still miffed. Buy the green malachite one too!

[@KatL]

Gosh maybe I will get the malachite too. Next year maybe ?😅🫢

[@juliechen6880]

You can extend it for free within 12 months. In my opinion you can extend a bit and lock it in the second ring which give you more options while you are layering

[@KatL]

👍🏼👍🏼

[@jo_overjoyeod]

beautiful piece! sweet alhambra is always a great choice haha no no i’m not biased at all 🤣😘🥰

[@pamelamok7276]

Lengthen it so u have the option to wear it both ways. After a certain time they charge u for lengthening it

[@jennn9637]

Good to know that the carnelian can be replaced. May i know how much they quoted for the replacement? Thanks!

[@KatL]

a few hundred...did not give me an exact price

[@parisryan5950]

beautiful necklace, Kat, looks really nice on you. I have the sweet alhambra carnelian bracelet and it's very cute. I try to keep it away from water though.

[@KatL]

I will try to remember removing it but ugh, i keep forgetting it is even there😂

[@okl6854]

Congrats! I love thevca on you. I have the bracelet and planning to get the necklace soon.

[@KatL]

Love the pair together!

[@Hantesis]

I Just posted today a video about VCA and Cartier Service kit as I requested chain extension. For me Sweet alhambra with carnelian is the best choice. It's stunning!

[@olgailiadi9135]

Hi Kat! Congrat!!! So beautiful peace! Do you consider doing video on your jewelry collection design and not?

[@KatL]

I need to !!!! I have new pieces n sold some too 🫢

[@lillygirl7238]

It’s perfect for you! 🌺💕

[@KatL]

Oh thank you!

[@jojos4eva]

❤ i lengthened my vca sweet size to give me more versatility. Yours is beautiful! Xox

[@danielleleong4761]

So pretty!! ❤

[@dlee8273]

Is your VCA necklace in rose gold ? You never said. I’m interested in getting it since it’s so cute on you. Let me know if the rose gold has darkened over time that is my main concern with rose gold.

[@KatL]

Sorry I missed this. Yes rose gold

[@sulinong]

Looks fab on you!

[@KatL]

Thank you babeeee🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@Sandra-bq3vm]

Congratulations! The sweet carnelian looks great on you! I bought my first sweet MOP necklace last summer and loved it so much I got the vintage MOP necklace for Christmas and then the vintage Onyx necklace for Valentine’s Day gift to myself. It’s so addicting just like Chanel. The only thing I did not like about the sweet size is that the pendant moves around so much whereas the vintage ones are fixed. But it’s still a great layering piece. The length is fine on you since you are petite and the pendant is so small to be worn long.

[@cara1727]

I was expecting to see a green malachite pendant 😅 cos green is your fav color

[@KatL]

I would have taken green if it was in the sweet size!

[@kris_tan]

Yay first

[@KatL]

🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@lilianee7778]

nah! just get a necklace extender.

[@violinstar123]

CONGRATULATIONS KATTTTT!!!!!!! vivi_luna

[@onegreenvoice]

Would not lengthen it any more. It's tiny and looks best in a shorter length. Love this piece - looks beautiful on you. Enjoy it!

[@HB-qd9gq]

Looks very nice on you 😊

[@KatL]

Thank you! 😊

[@luxlovejourney2016]

Love that necklace. Mine was different . Got the sweet size first then ended up exchanging for the vintage size. I usually wear it on its own and use my cartier damore as a layering pair for it. And I did lengthen mine for an option to wear it loner when needed:)

[@blue7bear]

yeahhh congrats...i only have only one VCA pcs and its same as your :) so pretty. wear it short look better

[@theugliestbeast]

I have the exact same one! My husband bought it for me for valentine's day, yay twinning!

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

I really like the Alhambra. I would like one in Australian opals but that is not an option alas! Thank you for the video!

[@premeyumlife443]

It is beautiful on u my lady. ❤️😘😘😘Sandy

[@alicarr5256]

Such a beautiful piece😍♥️love it! I would love that as my first piece as well🥰

[@Su-vy9rm]

It looks very pretty on you! It really does add a bit of colour on you!

[@kristak1102]

It’s beautiful Kat! Enjoy. 😍

[@israeli_flava]

I wouldn't lengthen it. Totally unnecessary. Looks perfect on u. However I really don't understand the concept of wearing fine jewelry in the shower/gym. It's FINE jewelry. just my opinion.

[@KatL]

THanks for sharing, I agree but I am so lazy to remove n put on 😅😅😅 i will try since this is new but at least if I didn’t, I know it’s hardier in water

[@kklvoescc]

I love it on you! And the length is perfect where it is. Congrats! ❤❤❤
