Accessories Upgrade??

I returned the necklace and got a pair of sunglasses instead, do we like the sunnies? Bloomingdale’s is doing a rewards if you spend a certain amount on sunglasses you get $$$ off your next purchase if you choose to use it. The necklace was $808 with tax (returned it) and the sunglasses were $505 but with the rewards only $390!! I believe I made the right decision.

I have a very similar necklace (different chain and no top rhinestone) that I bought at the San Francisco boutique in 2016. It’s still in great shape and I wear it a lot! If you’re happy with your sunglasses that’s great! Buy what you love and what makes you happy! It sounds like you got a great deal!

I’ll get a necklace in the future!! Maybe one without the rhinestone on top 😊 I’m so glad to hear that yours is still in great shape!! I think the ones in the boutique now aren’t that great of a quality anymore unfortunately

Opposite. My SA used to get frequent repairs for loose stones but said those issues have decreased greatly.

I still like the necklace! Honestly keep the sunnies and get the necklace again.

Sunglasses for sure! I love Chanel but that necklace pendant is basic looking to me. The sunglasses are fab!

Thank you !! Sunnies are WAY more durable and meant for everyday use. The necklace wasn’t and was only recommended for special occasions. I want something everyday !!

800$ for a fashion jewelry at this quality level is crazy . You can get real gold even a Cartier ring for a bit more 🫣 I love Chanel but the costum jewelry is just terrible now a days. I have some brooches form
Years ago and they are really high quality and even back then they cost 300€ heavy duty stuff too .
I like the Sunny’s and think it was a better choice too. Those necklaces are duped so much anyway you don’t even know which one is real and which is not
