Kathy Levine's Peacock necklace and matching Whimsy bracelet

priced at $ 200 and $224 are out of control. It's CZs for gosh sakes.

I would have bought both but no way at these prices!

They talk about this stuff like it's real and has actual value. It's not and it doesn't. I haven't bought a piece in years and almost never wear the few pieces I have, with absolutely no interest in owning more at any price but certainly not at prices like those.

@ellaphant.  Those pieces had a gazillion small prong set stones.  Lots of labor involved in setting them, plus colored stones seem to be more expensive.

That may be true but the prices are extreme. As I said, I would have bought both.

Aaaaaargh!

 @ellaphant You are correct.  Way to much money and the reviews on the bracelet are not good.

I wear a "gold" color "dog leash" 24 inch neck chain...that I bought around 1995 for 75¢ in a thrift store.  Honestly, it looks like the real thing, too!    di
