Really?

It's these:

Starting at $3500 for a full-size pendant. It's what all the sheeple are wearing. Now the teenagers are starting.



I've never seen that. But I also don't have girls.

I’m not in the DMV area, but joined this board when UB (and now YBM) shut down. Hope you ladies still chat with me even though I am not from here. )


So the OP lives in Westchester or some other new money showy place? Ok.

What is this style and do moms wear these items at your private?


"Stacks" are very in right now.


Still? It looks very lame when everyone wears the same.

At a big 3 and I’ve only seen one person wear an arm full of Cartier or Alhambra bracelets. I’ve seen others wear one piece of designer jewelry but not a whole set or multiple pieces on their arm or around their neck. I haven’t been to many in-person events since the pandemic but pre-pandemic, I didn’t notice any OTT dressing. The moms are pretty low key me included.

Totally, but they dominate the culture there.
