What kind of badge do you have? - Page 4

Not a badge but look at what was released this morning. LOVE IT! Alas, I'm no longer a collegian & I was never the chapter president so I can't buy it.

Beautiful isn't it? I wish there was one for Alumni Chapter President.

Still, I can always get this one that I've always wanted except in white gold. I'll wait until after I give birth though. My fingers are all swollen & can't fit into my wedding bands anymore. Lol!

Of course, I'll get the matching pendant & while I'm at it, I also like this ring. Mike would kill me if I spent all this money. Lol!

I'm sure you know what size you need. Then you can look at it in the box until you can wear it!

Crashing to say those rings are gorgeous! And so is the pendant.

I was peeking (for the millionth time) at the official jewelry brochure & say that they are now offering a badge that has emeralds. It's not on the Herff-Jones website but if you look at the catalog through the NHQ website, you'll see it.

I kind of like how our badges only had our official jewel or jewels in our colors. I don't know how I feel about the emerald. Though, since Alpha Xi Delta is going into the NPC rotation, they are offering a limited edition badge with emeralds, so since our turn is kind of soon (2014 I think), maybe that's what they're thinking?

that emerald badge is.... interesting. It is okay with the darker more purple enamel in the photo in the brochure, but would remind me of a christmas tree I think with a more traditionally red enamel like some of the badges from the 30's - 60's. hmm.

BetteDavisEyes · #52 08-04-2011, 11:02 PM

I'm a traditionalist in this aspect. I prefer our badge with pearls, amethysts or garnets. *shrug* The emerald is pretty but not my style or taste. Then again, I already have my almost dream badge so I shouldn't complain. Lol! My dream badge is the sorority President's diamond badge. I'll never get it but a girl can dream right?

Pardon the intrusion, but can someone post the emerald badge? I'd love to see it!

Ummm...yeah. I read the fine print next to the picture of the badge in the brochure and that's exactly what it says. Lol! Since SK is going into the rotation, starting in summer 2012, they will be offering a limited edition alternating pearl & emerald badge. Well, since the badge will be limited edition, I'm going to rethink my stance on this. I wonder if Mike would flip out if I order it just b/c I'd like to have it.

Green is my favorite color...looks like I'll be buying that one. Bummed I have to wait for a year to order it. :-(

BetteDavisEyes · #57 08-06-2011, 05:03 PM

Well, look at the wait as the time to save our pennies to buy the badge.

Mike is not going to be happy. If I could get the ring, pendant and the new badge, I'll be spending almost $1000.

Lol! Then again, one could be my baby gift in November, one my anniversary gift in early December and the other my Christmas gift. Come February, I can ask for something else for my birthday. LOL!
