LitGeek,
Your new necklace is divine. I am so tickled for you after seeing how your creation turned out. I can't wait to see how nice it goes with your complexion, I bet you just glow.

Oh my, 3 weeks sounds like forever...

Your kasumi colours are TDF!

 

[LitGeek]

Thanks NL and icy jade! 3 weeks does seem like an eternity when you are waiting for pearls to arrive

 

[bsomlo]

Lovely, keep us posted!

 

[4Ranch Girl]

Can't wait for a neck shot of this beauty. Is three weeks up yet?

 

[LitGeek]

Thank you bsomlo and 4Ranch Girl

One week down and hopefully less than two weeks to go until it arrives bsomlo, mrs taylor, and jenncent] I am wondering what is the quickest time you have received your CC pearls?

 

[bsomlo]

Weeeeelllll... let's see.....

Order #1 was placed June 6th, 74 days ago, and still hasn't arrived. It was sent registered.

Order #2 took around 6 business days using regular USPS. Mrs. Taylor may have exact number of days since I think our packages were mailed the same day.

I think my Order #1 used up all the bad karma for the entire PriceScope gang, though.

7 business days is the quickest for me.

 

[LitGeek]

Thank you bsomlo and mrs taylor Today would be 7 days, so in theory it could show up any day now

My CC/Kojima strand came in yesterday's post (it only took 8 days!) and it is even more beautiful than I imagined!!! I am so in love with it! I get the whole moonglow thing now, the pearls have this beautiful luster and really do glow. And the Kasumi ~ wow WOW wow ~ I am so glad I chose it to be the focal pearl! I can't even begin to describe how beautiful the iridescent colors are on the Kasumi. The colors of the moonglows and Kasumi could not be any more perfect together and I think the two gold beads are just perfect too (I debated as to wether or not I should use them). The fit is also just right at 16" and the clasp is very comfortable and easy to use. I also love the silk bag that Catherine included with it. I wore the strand with my diamond studs yesterday. My natural white hanadama pearl studs look amazing with it, but they have a little dressier feel to them.

This is how they arrived in the packaging

Photo at dusk at the ball park. DH didn't think it was necessary to wear pearls there, but DD and I insisted it was

So pretty! They sit perfectly on your collar. Love that.
Of course you needed to wear the pearls to the ball park.

 

[Pattye]

LitGeek,

Perfect on you! Love the Japanese Kasumi feature pearl; this necklace will be a favorite for sure!

 

[Fly Girl]

Stunning necklace. I'm a big Kasumi fan as well, and that necklace design really highlights that gorgeous pearl.

I hope that wearing your pearls to the ball park brought good luck to your team.

 

[bsomlo]

LitGeek -- congratulations on a beautiful piece. I love personally that length and it looks wonderful on you. It's a good thing both you and DD have good pearl sense. Enjoy your new necklace and wear it in health!

 

[movie zombie]

nice.....but absolutely gorgeous on you!

tell your hubby we wear pearls everywhere: the garden center, bowling, the farmers' market, etc.
wearing them to the ballpark was a no brainer!!!!!!

 

[LitGeek]

Thank you so much icy jade, Pattye, Fly Girl, bsomlo, and movie zombie! I knew you gals would understand the need to wear pearls to the ball park Wearing these beauties very casually again today while running errands.

Fly Girl Sadly they did not bring the team luck, but it was still a great game!

 

[JaneSmith]

Woo-hoo! They are gorgeous and look great on.

 

[mrs taylor]

It's so much more beautiful than I anticipated....and that's saying a lot! WOW is that something! It looks fantastic on you! I can't wait for more shots of this one.

Thank you! I have to agree with you ~ they are way more beautiful than I anticipated too! My pearl princess (DD) says they are her most favorite pearls from my collection and wants to know when she can wear them. Haha, I told her for her prom and she said that is way too long to wait I think I need to start a small collection for her...I am kicking myself for not trying to get her a pair of those $35 PP metallic drop earrings from the sale and stashing them away for the holidays. I will be on the lookout now though

Thank you also JaneSmith
