Thank you ckrickett!

Bsomlo, you look positively regal in the triple strand!

Today, I'm in the kojima baroque ssp spike necklace with non-pearl studs.

Juliebeth, I love your pistachio Tahitians!! They look great with your skin tone and that shirt. The pearl shapes are so elegant. I wonder if this is the strand Icy Jade posted when she wondered if anyone was looking for a pistachio strand.

juliebeth -- such an unusual and attractive color! They definitely look pistachio rather than bronze. Enjoy this unique strand and were it in health! Goes nicely with your top, too. Well done!

This one's for you, Icy. PP Snow Goddess fireball is approximately 17mm x 22mm at the widest and longest points. YG findings, chain (which I closed shortened with over an inch of chain dangling down back). Paired with POJ drop metallics:

Mapo, I love the modern feel of that spike necklace!

Bsomlo, Your short tin cup is so lovely! And the white fireball pendant looks great with that blue dress!

This is my GSS pendant, gleaned from Mikeyy's suitcase at the PP Ruckus :))

My little girl wore my T keshi a few days ago and surprisingly kept them on for the entire outing. She loves and frequently asks to try on "mama's beads and necklaces". She is learning fast :naughty:

Baby nurse, the colours on that Tahitian strand is AMAZING.... if I were you, I would be searching for mirrors and shiny surfaces to admire that strand!

Juliebeth, looks pistachio to me and the colour suits you. This colour is on my 'to buy' list.

Argh, I just typed a long message and it disappeared when I hit submit. It's too hard to type on a touch screen to re-type it all. I am loving the variety of eye candy posted on this thread.

Baby Nurse, you have inspired me to wear my suitcase pendant today.

YC -- your darling girl outshines any pearls. What a cutie!!! (The keshi ain't bad, either!)

Kay -- I still haven't worn my "Mikeyy's suitcase" WSS pendant. I just don't have a thick enough chain. I do think I should scrounge up a piece of leather...

Feeling the need to uphold my reputation (smile), I broke out my Fire Goddess pendant today (another John creation). I paired her with my grape cluster earrings:









Bailey -- I was admiring your posting on the "other" forum! Your last line made me laugh. They are gorgeous !

Today I am wearing my new tin cup, and a layered it with a very special necklace.

If I remember correctly, the little akoya diamond pendant was my first ever piece of jewelry. I have had it as long as I can remember. It's a teeny little akoya and diamond pendant, on a YG chain with YG balls. When I was little I squished a few of the balls (I was like 5). but I have always loved this necklace. My first pearl strand was my grandma's, but this was my first pearl. So I layered it with the tin cup and I think it looks quite cute!

again sorry for the bad picture ::)

No need to uphold your reputation, IMO, you are the Fireball queen. You carry those gorgeous massive pearls quite well.

I also need to find a thicker chain for mine, but in the meantime, I am wearing it with what I have. The simple WSS drop seems perfect with summer dresses, and we are having extremely hot, humid weather (at least for SD) right now.

I am going to an art auction to support the local Alzheimer's Association after work tonight. My mother has a picture in the auction, so we will attend together.

"Mikeyy's suitcase" WSS pendant (14x17 mm), paired with 11-12 mm WSS drops from PP in their blossom setting:

Bailey, those are gorgeous goldens, especially the bi-color.

Bsomlo, the color and neckline of your dress frames the Fire Goddess very well. She is looking fierce and fabulous, as always. Does your larger fireball with the asymmetrical pearls on the chain have a name? I like the grape clusters -- I don't think I've seen those before.

Ckrickett, I love your beautiful tin cup paired with your first pearl – so sweet.
