Van Cleef & Arpels Onyx Alhambra Bracelet 7 Month Review

[@Dream0fLove]

The blue is pretty! I agree with you about how it is harder to wear because the bright blue color is not as neutral. Between the two you are deciding, I recommend MOP. It is delicate compared to other stone but it is so so pretty and in my opinion would look great with your stack.

[@NakyaSherrell]

Thanks for your recommendation. How has the MOP been holding up for you?

⁠​⁠@@NakyaSherrellI only had mine for 4 months. So far I’m loving it. Get many compliments and easy to coordinate with outfit (dress up or dress down)

Love your stack I think a diamond tennis bracelet in white gold would break up the gold beautifully ❤

[@mamaN263]

I agree with you, guilloché might be too much gold. MOP seems to be the better option. I do understand the annoyance of taking it on and off though. I don’t like taking of my jewelry too but really want the MOP.

[@NakyaSherrell]

Agreed. I would hate to take it on/off. But it’s very beautiful

[@dmar6770]

Love the guilloché!! It’s gorgeous .. your jewelry is beautiful!❤️

[@NakyaSherrell]

Thank you so much!

Hi Naakia. I recently subscribed to your channel because you are extremely articulate and relatable. Congratulations on purchasing your VCA bracelet! It adds color and variety to your stack. I’m so inspired to see a young African American corporate professional woman manifest her dream wrist stack! Your idea to get inspiration from Pinterest is brilliant! Would you consider adding a luxury watch to your fine jewelry collection?

[@NakyaSherrell]

Thanks for subbing! I would consider adding a luxury watch to my collection, but I'm hesitant because I went through a phase where I accumulated over 10 watches. However, I haven't worn any of them in almost 10 years. While it's something I might consider in the future, it's not a priority for me at the moment.

Girl I love your stack❤!! It is absolutely beautiful… I love the MOP it would look amazing with the onyx. Do you plan to wear them all together? I plan to buy the Gucci GG 18k yellow gold bangle and the small JUC to add to my white gold diamond bangle and my TiffAny T wire bracelet next month. I’m new to the luxury/fine jewelry world but I plan on curating a nice stack this year and not buy as many luxury handbags. I hope I can stick with it 😂.

[@NakyaSherrell]

Thank you so much! Yes, if I were to get the MOP I would wear them all. It seems like a bit much but I like to wear all my jewelry lol. Your bracelet stack is going to be beautiful. Also, I have not purchased a new handbag since getting into fine jewelry.

[@TimewithTiffany]

@@NakyaSherrell girl how did you stop 🛑 buying handbags🤣🤣. I’m excited to start building my fine jewelry collection.. VCA is definitely on my list. I was thinking about getting the MOP sweet bracelet but I was thinking it was tiny and will get lost in the stack so just save some more and get the 5 motifs. It’s definitely not too much… I’m know to be extra… I would wear them all too!

[@adilene27]

I have your exact same stack lol I think it’s too much gold too with my 3 Cartier bracelets and added VCA onyx for contrast! No more good maybe silver?

[@NakyaSherrell]

Yes, definitely need to break it up. Thinking silver or a white gold piece.

[@martindaity]

How do you save/ budget for luxury items?

[@NakyaSherrell]

I don't believe that I'm doing anything special but I do budget and save as you mentioned. I'm not saving for any particular item or anything I just save what and when I can.

[@Jharries1971]

Hi, can I ask how much the store price for this bracelet is?

[@NakyaSherrell]

I would recommend that you go to their website : vancleefarpels.com. Prices change and can vary by country.
