A Wishful, Wistful Indulgence

October 21st, 2009 @ 2:30 pm by Mrs. Parfait

I love this white necklace:

A Wishful, Wistful Indulgence :  wedding jewelry 155 heartnecklace

Sooooooooo…

In case you haven’t noticed from my previous posts…

I tend to fall hopelessly in love with very, VERY specific items.

I longed for this ring until the day Mr. Parfait placed it on my finger. I’ve been dreaming about this dress since I was thirteen years old. There is a purse that I’ve wanted since high school, and my brother still remembers the day my father almost spent a lot of money to get it for me. I don’t think anyone should spend too much on a purse, but that doesn’t stop me from loving it.

Back to the subject at hand! I saw these ads for Vera Wang’s Princess fragrance a few years ago and totally fell for the thin, sparkly heart necklace on the model. Camilla Belle is beyond pretty, and I love all of the dresses she wears in the perfume ads. I also love that she’s wearing the mysterious necklace in all of the shots, so I can admire it from different angles! Pictures from Vera Wang.

I have no idea how to find it, and even if I did, I doubt I could wear it. My sensitive skin is allergic to basically everything, so I’ve ruled out wearing any type of special wedding jewelry. But if I come across a Parfait-friendly, hypoallergenic version of this beauty by next spring, you can bet you’ll see it framed by the neckline of my wedding dress. :)

Do you have a special necklace or piece of jewelry you’d love to wear on your wedding day?

I also have a tendency to covet very.specific.things. My e-ring is one of them, much like yours! I see it and something in my mind just clicks and I think, “That’s it. It’s perfect.”

My wedding day jewelry is going to be my something borrowed, I think — I’m going to borrow my MOH’s beautiful pearl necklace.

I’m willing to bet you could have a jeweler custom-make that for you in appropriate materials fairly easily, given how many angles there are in the pictures.

Hi Miss Parfait!
I actually have this exact necklace - my mom bought it for me at a Vera Wang trunk show serveral years back, and I love it! :-) Maybe try searching for Vera Wang jewerly trunk shows locally? I was also allergic to it, and eventually had to replace the white gold chain for a platnium one, but now can wear it every day.

Might be a bit out of your jewelry budget (depending on how BADLY you want it!) But is this it? http://www.amazon.com/Vera-Small-Twisted-Heart-Necklace/dp/B000RJXWXQ

Your post made me laugh, but only because the male model in those adds is friends with my husband and was a groomsmen in my wedding :)

@AR0307: You lucky duckling! Searching now–thanks for the tip. :)

@alishaneva: Heehee, I’ve never done that before. Maybe now’s a good time to look into it!

@Katie S: NO WAY! I hope no one teases him about the purple hat he’s sporting. ;) Not everyone gets to play prince to Camilla Belle’s princess!

@Mrs. Mary Jane & @Daniela: Thanks for the links, girls!

Have you tried doing an alchemy on Etsy? I bet a seller would be able to make it for you pretty inexpensively, and make it a material you can WEAR. :)

Here’s my guess:
http://www.radiantfinejewelry.com/Gold-Diamond-Pendant-Necklace/Vera-Wang-Diamond-Necklace-in-18k-White-Gold-215ctw/

Since it’s in all these ads, I’m guessing it is probably Vera Wang design.

I, too, always fall in love with very specific things, I swear it’s a disease, lol! There’s the Fontain Bed from Zgallerie that I can’t find anywhere, so I know how you feel! Looks like HarleyQuinn found it for you, yay!

You have expensive (but beautiful) taste! Haha I’m the same way… there can be 1000 budget friendly options and I always end up picking the one most expensive or not on sale :)

It’s very pretty, and I know what you mean about getting stuck on a very particular item. Before my engagement shoot, I had in my head that I wanted a very specific shade of pale blue shoe, and I couldn’t find anything close!
