san francisco's van cleef and arpels boutique is finally opened and i was invited to visit
the boutique right before it opened to the public and i will show you how the new boutique look like
and all the shopping vlog with price details as usual make sure to watch the entire video
because i will also show you what goodies i got from the opening event before we start today's
vlog i have something really special and super exciting to share with you that is my new diamond
fine jewelry piece from idle idyl this is what's come in the packaging i actually opened it already
to wear it and it's super beautiful even the box has a lot of details these are lab grown diamonds
and the 14k solid gold this is the white box inside and when i open it the package
feels super luxurious it comes in this ready to join the diamond revolution it said many things
special about this like their modular design which i'll show you in a bit it comes in this
beautiful pouch there's a really nice card here and also this is where all the jewelry comes
in it said idyl and if you look at it here it said can't wait to see them on you
are you ready they are so beautiful and these are the diamond pieces what i love about them is that
these are real lab grown diamonds with solid 14k gold that would not oxidize or discolor that can
definitely stand every day where i actually have already wore them for the past week to sleep and
to shower and i put them back into the box and they still look so shiny and so gorgeous i'm
obsessed with them so much because also every single piece of their jewelry has gone through
quality control in-house they are handmade and checked by ateliers with 20 years of experience in
the world diamond capital Antwerp in Belgium they have this very interesting modular design where
you only need to buy one set of diamond studs like this pair and then you can buy different modular
and then put the diamond stud inside of this modular to create a different look and that there
are many different types of modular the studs are available in different color of gold the rose gold
white gold and also different sizes mine is in the big size and color is in the rose gold
you can either wear these diamond studs along they're stunning and shiny or you can just use
different modular that i mentioned to create a different looks one modular i picked is this Lucia
in rose gold so you put the diamond stud inside of this add-on piece to complete the look it has such
a beautiful and unique design that they have many different holes in different positions to allow
the earrings fits you better with your ear and you can move it up and down so this pair is so dainty
and pretty the diamonds at the bottom totally adds more shine to your look what's special about these
diamonds pieces they're real and the sustainable lab grown diamonds i did some research on lab
grown diamonds i really wish i knew there is an option like this existed before and supposedly
humans eye can all tell the difference between a natural diamond and a lab grown damage and these
lab grown diamonds has exact same characteristic as natural diamonds all the 4cs these are high
quality and sustainable diamonds that can last you for years and you don't have to worry about
any of the activity like working out shower or anything that's why i was able to wear them for
the past week without worrying about anything because it's lab grown diamonds so their price
is also way more affordable compared to natural diamonds i also got this add-on modular called uma
in rose gold this one i got is also a single one so you don't have to get a pair and you can just
get a single piece for layering if you have multiple ear piercings honestly after i saw
a couple people like jessica alba how they rock their earrings it really inspired me and make me
want to get more ear piercing so that i can wear more ones and by stacking them up that's really
really pretty do you think i should get more ear piercings another pair of modular i got is the
amelia in rose gold they're in the classic round shape with the diamond stud i picked they're even
more shinier they are the perfect combo these cards come in the packaging as well if you are
unsure about what style to get you can always put your diamond studs inside of the cards and to see
how they look for the necklace it's also the same modular design so i picked our base chain
and then it's in the rose gold what i love about this chain is that it has three holes in there
and you can easily adjust it to different length you can weigh it shorter or longer you can also
pick different add-on pieces to create a different looks for the necklace as well this one has a row
of diamonds and it's called Lena and it's such a classic and chic design that i can wear it alone
or just even layer with other necklace pieces and it's so beautiful and i'm so obsessed with it it's
work appropriate and a perfect for everyday wear and i never have to worry about shower with it
or exercise and i have been wearing it non-stop and i'm just madly in love with it i love every
single piece that i got and they are so classic if you are looking for really beautiful chic designed
fine jewelry pieces without the designer jewelry markup and with really really affordable prices
and i feel these are the best option for you and i can totally see myself to add more piece
to my idyl collection in the future and also wear them decades to come right now idyl has a
mother's day sale going on so i will link all the jewelry pieces and also the sale details
in the description box down below for you to check it out definitely try to get it while it's on sale
what do you think of my new diamond jewelry and which one is your favorite leave me a comment down
below to let me know i would love to hear from you with that being said let's go check out the
new van cleef boutique for those of you who have been shopping in van cleef inside of neiman marcus
for a very long time you probably feel the same way as i do because the first van cleef and arpal
boutique is finally opened up in san francisco i got invited to see the boutique and everything
before it got opened to the public and i'm taking you with me to see everything in the new boutique
when you walk in the boutique you see the beautifully displayed and
designed shelf on your left and that the boutique is bigger than the vca in the neiman location
the boutique also feels very modern and chic my biggest hope is that they will have more
inventory if you watched my luxury wish list for 2022 i still have one piece that i'm hoping to
get from van cleef and i hope they can locate this piece for me inside of the new boutique
they have different vip areas and a vip room besides that they also have the bar area as well
now let me show you what they have in stock now besides the butterfly
necklaces and rings they also have quite some selections from the frivole collection which
i have never seen before in the older location butterfly and the frivole are the pieces that
i have never considered before but i start looking into more as they are so stunning
i got to try on some really gorgeous pieces which i'll show you in the try on section in a little
bit how amazing are the diamond free ball between the finger ring and the small free bowl diamond
pendant the between the finger ring is 22 200 dollars and the frivole pendant is 9200 dollars.
these are the watches from vca's poetic complications collection it is my favorite
watch collection from vca if you watched on my other vca shopping vlog in the past
you probably remember that i have tried on this day and night watch on the lower left side
i know that alhambra collection might be the most exciting one for you they definitely have
way more pieces than the older location i'm just so happy to see these stunning pieces in person
so
you guys i tried on so many beautiful pieces let's start with the 4 motif magic Alhambra earrings in
mother of pearl in yellow gold it's definitely not an everyday piece but i have to admit that
these mother of pearls are insanely beautiful in person this pair is currently retail for eleven
thousand six hundred dollars i can feel the weight of this earring because it's in the magic size
and also 4 motifs this piece makes me want to consider the two motifs or three motif earrings
in the future i expressed my interest in guilloche pieces and unfortunately they don't have any ones
that i want at this moment but it doesn't hurt to take a look at other guilloche pieces that
they have right now to see how i feel about them in person this is the guilloche necklace
in the magic size and it's currently retail for seven thousand eight hundred dollars i feel the
size might be a little bit too big for me the length might be too long but i'm pretty sure
that guilloche is what i want next after seeing this in person on the most right side i'm trying
on the fine motif vintage alhambra bracelet in the yellow gold the bracelet is currently retail for
four thousand and fifty dollars not many people at the opening event today but i got to enjoy a
little bit coffee while i was waiting for my SA to bring more pieces for me to try most importantly
my SA gave me the most famous and most delicious van cleef chocolate to try some of you may already
know how delicious these chocolates are and they are exclusively made for vca's customers only
they're so yummy and i feel i would love to have more this is the diamond frivole pendant i saw on
display earlier and it's in the small size these diamonds are crazy shiny the flower shape is so
feminine and beautiful the necklace is currently retail for 9200 it total has 43 small diamonds and
it's about 0.81 carat just like so many flowers dancing in the breeze this necklace stands out
so much with the graphic and airy aesthetic especially with the diamonds on top of them
i feel frivole might be something i would consider later after i get my wish list item first what do
you think of this necklace leave me a comment down below to let me know besides the necklace my SA
recommended the six motif magic alhambra necklace in yellow gold carnelian and tiger eye this piece
was a surprise which i never considered before inspired by the clover leaf their asymmetric
design features different associations of the materials this could be a really fun piece for
special occasions i like the carnelian and tiger's eye are in different sizes and also the asymmetric
look this necklace is currently retail for ten thousand seven hundred dollars and of course
i have to try the five motif bracelet in the carnelian stone this shade of red is actually
the perfect shade of red to me not too dark and not too bright either it's currently retail for
four thousand and four hundred dollars the vintage size five motif carnelian is right next to my
carnelian in the sweet size so that you can see the difference the vintage size feels much bigger
you guys they also have this five motif vintage alhambra bracelet in yellow gold and diamond in
stock as well this one is so timeless and elegant there are total of 60 stones of diamonds here
and it's about 2.42 carats in total the yellow gold goes so well with my existing stack the
bracelet is really loose on me and i'll definitely have to resize it if i get any of the five motif
bracelet i did notice that the four leaf clover easily get flipped to the opposite side i wonder
if it will not flip after i do the resizing if any of you have the five motif bracelet leave me
a comment down below to let me know after resizing the clover that's your clover flipped to the
other side often not a big problem it's just the other side it's not as shiny as the diamond side
the five motif bracelet is currently retail for twenty six thousand six hundred dollars
the other two pieces i'm seriously considering and the debating between are the five motif vintage
alhambra bracelet in yellow gold guilloche and a diamond mix and the five motif vintage alhambra
bracelet in the rose gold diamond and a gray of mother pearl mix i feel on my slightly leading
toward the rose gold and the mother of pearl combo here but when i did the instagram story pool
most of you picked the guilloche with the diamond combo the rose gold one is thirteen thousand two
hundred dollars in the the guilloche one is thirteen thousand nine hundred dollars only
seven hundred dollars difference which one do you think i should go with leave me a comment
down below to let me know one thing i love about the gray of mother of pearl is that you can see
the grey mother of pearl reflects different light and shade under different lighting it
could really look bright and it could look really low-key it's just a really beautiful shade what's
nice about the guilloche and the diamond combo is that it's a bright and shiny and a classic
piece that you can't go wrong with i'm so torn do you think i should go with either one of these
piece here or the guilloche five motif bracelet leave me a comment down below to let me know
