    I'm glad U filmed this video! I have been reluctant to buy because everyone says don't get them wet... and I don't have time to be taking jewellery on and off! Thankfully I was never into malachite anyway. I think you may have just enticed me to finally pull the trigger on a VCA piece☺️

    Thanks for filming this video so quickly! One thing I found out that you didn’t mention is Neiman Marcus carries VCA! And they offer 30 day returns whereas the boutiques I heard only offer store credit or exchanges. VCA Online you can get a refund. I really love the onyx earrings on you! I always thought it wouldn’t stand out on me bc I have black hair too but the gold outline actually really makes it pop! Thanks for all the great info. It is SO helpful! 😘😘😘

    I really want the MOP bracelet but do you think I could wear it on the same wrist as my 2 love bracelets? I wear my Cartier tank watch on my left wrist & definitely wouldn’t wear it with that. I’m so dependent on always having a watch on.

    • @GinaLvoe
      @GinaLvoe  Před 3 lety

      I think it depends on your wrist size. The bracelets (sweet version) has 2 adjustments which is nice! Because it’s a chain it overlaps over my love bracelets but the sweet Alhambra are a bit on the bigger side on me😅 I wear size 16 on my love but could have gone for the 15 too! hope this helps!🤗🤗🤗 Gina❤️

    Hello, you mentioned serial numbers. Whats the reason for being picky? Are some numbers better than others?

    • @GinaLvoe
      @GinaLvoe  Před 3 lety +1

      Hi! Everyone has their own reasons but since the serial numbers are all different, some people like specific numbers. I personally don’t really care as long as it’s not triple 6 digits? Hope this helps!🤗🤗🤗 Gina❤️

    Thanks for the info. But I believe referring to hardship scale, the tiger's eye is harder than mother-of-pearl and Malachite. Mother of pearl is the most fragile one among all VCA stones and cannot touch water.

    • @GinaLvoe
      @GinaLvoe  Před 3 lety

      Hi! For the sweet Alhambra it only comes in one size. But there’s 2 length options which makes it very helpful! You can chose to wear it in the smaller setting or the bigger setting. If it still doesn’t fit, VCA will add more length (which is amazing!)✨🙌🙌 Hope this helps!🤗🤗🤗 Gina❤️

    With your Sweet Alhambra bracelets, did you have to get them sized or is the smallest jump ring setting good from stopping the bracelet from moving around?

    • @GinaLvoe
      @GinaLvoe  Před 3 lety +1

      The sweet Alhambra bracelets have 2 different settings and I just wear them in the shortest setting. I have small wrist so it still moves around. I thought about shortening them... but I don’t want to take away the gold😂😂 But it’s an option😊 Hope this helps!🤗🤗🤗 Gina❤️

    Actually VCA does special holiday pieces they only make that one year and then not again. The sweet bracelet in the black was made a few years ago. So it may be real.

    Thanks for sharing.
    Just wanted to let you know something about onyx :
    "Cleaning onyx jewelry is pretty straightforward: Just use a soft, dry cloth or a soft brush to wipe any dirt off your gemstones. You can also use a little water to moisten the cloth and make the cleaning easier. Don't wet the stone or soak it in water, however, as onyx is porous and absorbs liquids easily."
