bsomlo, thank You 
pkinnew, thanks! You always are able to choose so nice words! This is my casual dress; I wear it at home only. But I have noticed these akoyas goes nicely to pale blue colour of dress. Maybe I have to purchase something else in same colour
. Your Kamokas are stunning. Dream strand. And that green hue of Your ring; amazing

I will definitely take more pictures of the green Tahitian ring - it reminds me of those glass balls you sometimes find in gardens!
I'm wearing my Tahitian tin cup doubled today - a little sparkle, a little pearl! And did you see that PP has tin cups up on their sale page???
Oh Confection10 - I Really think you need more blue Akoyas to go with that gorgeous strand! Maybe a bracelet, earrings? Hmmmmmm...

pkinnew, lovely airy tin cup! So casual, but so feminine. You sometimes are real enabler; I meant some new clothes, not PEARLS. But not bad idea at all 
bsomlo; it's always pleasure to see Your Goldfish
Today the palest peach strand (only shade of peach I really like, by the way)

Confection and BM -- those single strands are so lovely on your necks.
BM -- Those silver blue Tahitians glow beautifully. What a nice color. Is there a thread on these (if so and I've forgotten, please forgive me -- I'm overwhelmed by everyone's collections!)? I'd love to see more pictures and stats.

Thanks, bsomlo. These are 10-12mm round with silver body and blue overtones. I bought these couple years ago during PP's mother's day sale so the photos are in that sale thread and I didn't make a separate one.
BN: Those silver blue tahitians just glow on you! I'm going to have to go back and read the mother's day thread!
Bsomio, Pkinnew, & Confection: gorgeous lovelies too! Love the drops...they give a nice presence despite being a single pearl. The souffles are TDF - great luster and interesting shape, and the peach strand is just classic and beautiful.
I'm being boring and wearing my new multicolour strand again.
My top is really not that low cut...but somehow my photos all seem to make me look a little trampy.
Truthfully I'm in quite dull office wear (it's not quite black suit weather yet, so I am squeezing the last of summer casual out of the season).

By count, it's the silver one to the right of the dark one, although no matter which way I clasp them, they seem to want to spin on me so that the dark one is at the center. I have to say, these are difficult pearls to get a nice picture of! In person they glow...sometimes they are silvery, sometimes they are a bit more olive toned, and in some lights they have a strong blue overtone, but in almost all of my pictures they look a little flat and olive toned (except for the ones in my bathroom, where they look quite blue). It's also hard to see the two-toned pearls about half way up the strand too in the pictures, whereas in real life they are quite distinct. The dark one towards the center also has amazing peacock overtones, and towards the back there are two smaller intensely blue pearls that I would die to have more of towards the front. If I ever get them lengthened I will ask to see whether they have any more of those!
I wish they were a bit more photogenic (or that I was a better photographer). You'd think that since today is overcast I'd have better luck, but clearly I need a light box (and a better camera than my iPhone).
