Re: Judith Ripka One Time Only!

Hi Moondance, I just received my OTO necklaces in both the clad and starling silver choices and they are both SPECTACULAR. The alternating high polish with the textured links looks great mixed with the diamonique rondelles and the pearls ( if Ms Judie had added two more pearls towards the back of the necklace it would have been Super Spectacular in my opinion) . The removeable enhancer charms are so beautifully done and the pearls are gorgeous . I love both choices and will be keeping them- the price was fantastic as well . I hope my review helps with your decision making. It is surely a piece you must see in person. Let me know what you decide.

Re: Judith Ripka One Time Only!

Hi Anisha! I am so thrilled you love them both. Hopefully I will get my gold clad today. I just knew you were going to love it. It just looked so special. The price was fabulous. I will probably wish I had gotten both. I will report back when I receive mine. Thanks again for letting me know how much you adore yours. There are no reviews on this necklace yet. So it was nice hearing yours.

Re: Judith Ripka One Time Only!

I received my Sterling yesterday. I love it and anything I can get multi use out of. Charms and a beautiful, all purpose necklace. I got the shorter one for $399 and it is worth it for all the wear I will get out of it. The charms are cute too.

When you think that her charms are usually over $50 each, well, you get the idea. Hope you decide on it, you'll never know until you see it.

I would love the clad too!!

Re: Judith Ripka One Time Only!

I actually did decide to purchase the 17" in gold clad. I purchased it later that day, I couldn't stop thinking about it and the great price. So I took the plunge. I think it should be here today. I will report back. I know I am absolutely going to love it. I will get a lot of use out it as I don't have many gold necklaces at all and I have been looking for something unique and special and I think This is it. Happy you love yours.

Re: Judith Ripka One Time Only!

I got it! I got it! It came today. I am so happy I did. It truly is gorgeous. Nothing not to love about. Showy but not over the top. I love the baguettes. You know, it's lovely yet hip and cool too.

Re: Judith Ripka One Time Only!

I have a question for those that purchased this. The way the charms are set up, do you have to remove them every time you take the necklace on off or am I missing something. The charms are in the way of hooking the chain to get it on and off. Any suggestions.

Re: Judith Ripka One Time Only!

Yes, you do have to remove the charms to get it on and off. I have been sliding them on and off (as opposed to removing them by the clasp). In my opinion, this is kind of a design flaw. It would be easier if it had another clasp on the back.

Re: Judith Ripka One Time Only!

I agree. At first I thought I was doing something wrong. I actually was hoping I was. It's kind of a pain having to do that each time. It sure is gorgeous though but honestly I am not sure if I will keep it.

Re: Judith Ripka One Time Only!

Ok, I have been sliding the charms off as you suggested and it's actually quite easy that way. It's a keeper, but I agree it is a design flaw. It is a WOW necklace for sure.
