Hi everyone! Over the last couple of months, I have received quite a number of questions both on IG as well as irl on how my VCA bracelet has been holding up. And considering, I have been wearing my Vintage Alhambra five motif bracelet almost on a daily for well over a year now, I figured it was about time I talk you through my experience and thoughts. I hope you enjoy :)
And if you are looking for a more in-depth video about the purchasing process and my initial review after 3 months plus a Q&A, check out this video: • VAN CLEEF & ARPELS VIN...

Aaaah thanks for this!! Been thinking of buying this for so long and it was very interesting to hear your review!
Thank you for watching dear! I’m glad my review was helpful :)
Such a stunning piece darling. Wonderful review. ❤️
Thanks so much for watching dear🤗
I was debating between this mop bracelet and the guilloche and have decided to get the guilloche bracelet first. The MOP bracelet is still on my wishlist as I do also feel it’s more of a casual piece that you can wear daily. Thank you for sharing💕. New subbie and a fellow UA-camr here😊
I’m sure you’ll love the guilloché one. The intricate carving and how sparkly it is, make it such a special piece. Plus the full gold is probably a little more carefree than the MOP. Thank you for watching and welcome to my little UA-cam community :)
The review basically starts at 4:30
Thank you. I tend to ramble ;)
hero!
Hey Lesley ! I love this braceletbut from Van clef I would love a Alhambra necklace but I also want a hermit finesse necklace I am unsure of which one I should go first
Haha, I feel your struggle. There are so many beautiful jewelry pieces out there.
I love your dress! Where is it from? Also, great review!
The dress is by Kae Sutherland x NA-KD :) Thanks so much, I’m glad you enjoyed my review
Beautiful bracelet! I am so glad you are still loving it. Do you find it to be more of a statement or dainty piece? 🥰
I‘ts definitely more on that dainty side. That being said, the mother of pearl and the gold is so beautiful and sparkly that is does make a subtle statement :)
I have the very same bracelet (though I had mine resized to fit my small wrist... and because I was scared that I would bump it into a table or something, lol). I have to "polish" mine using a soft cloth because sometimes I think the mother of pearl gets a bit "dirty", or there is some dust on it or something. Do you do the same thing ? I love this bracelet though, I wear it every day as well.
I’m so glad it’s an everyday piece of jewelry for you as well :) I have actually never polished it either. I will have to look into that. Do you use a specific polishing cloth that you’d recommend?
@@LesleyAdina It's a soft cloth, kind of like the one you would use to clean your glasses or your computer, see what I mean ? It's actually from Cartier. I've bought the necklace with the pendant Amulette in malachite and there was a cleaning kit with it and the soft cloth was inside.
@@Liz86000 Thank you :)
I really love this design but i love my gold to be solid 22k or 24k. This has stopped me from buying vca/ cartier 😅😅😅😅😅
Haha, I totally get that! Plus, if you are shopping outside the highly coveted brand names, you’re able to get so much more for your money✨🙌🏻
Your dress is beautiful where did you get it?
Thank you :) The dress is by Kae Sutherland x NA-KD. Unfortunately a few years old at this point…
Can you wash your hands with this? I’am between this one and the guilloche alhambra🙃
I don’t take it off when I’m washing my hands but try to not get it wet. The full gold is probably a lot more carefree because you don’t have to worry about how the material would react to water. It’s a tough choice. Both options are beautiful.
do you shower and workout in this ??
I always take it off before ;)
You look like Blake Lively!
Thank you for making my day❤️
She really does!
Thank you 🫶🏻🫶🏻
