I just love your new necklace -- both ways evenly (which is rare)!

Wow! So much eye candy!!!

Where to even start?!?!

Baby Monster: those ripples! Wow! What an impact piece.

Frost Me: love, LOVE, how your green Tahitians worked out. I am experiencing "the pearl path not taken" syndrome!

Fly Girl: OMG! O-M-G!!! Your strand and your kamokas!!! They are stunning (and together I am almost blind with pearl envy!).

Juliebeth: Love the fireball! It looks phenomenal on you!

Cyndayco: Those ripples are fantastic! I don't think I've ever seen any that colour before. Love them! (where did you find them?!?) I also love your lavender fireball pendant. It is stunning with the yellow gold.

And the little pearly animals....so cute!

I went to the baseball game today. The home team lost, but I felt pretty in my freshwater silver soufflé pendant from Kojima Pearl and my Sea of Cortez pearl earrings from Agustus on eBay. Do not blame Agustus for my hasty wiring job. :loopy: I put the Sea of Cortez pearls on headpins so I could wear them right away. Some day they will be upgraded with the quality findings that they deserve. :)) I hope you can see some of the green and pink overtones in my photo of the soufflé. I know the overtones are harder to spot in the Sea of Cortez pearls.


Hi Fly Girl,
I love your pendant and earrings :appl: May I know what mm size is the bale? Can a clasp go through your pendant bale or is it a fixed chain? Thank you. :))

Thank you, thecat.

The interior diameter of the bale is about 4mm. Yes, I wear it on a regular chain.

Fly Girl, that strand is wow gorgeous.

Thanks everyone for your kind comments on the white ripples. It's a substantial look and weight but I got used to the heft. Although it looks like Kevin has taken the weight comments into consideration when selecting the ripples during his latest buying trip. There's a note about that in his new blog posts.

I don't have a neck shot yet...but today I'm wearing my 36.5 strand of white metallics from the PP July sale. The replacement strand came along with my recent purchases...and my gosh it's even prettier than the original one! Almost perfectly round and incredibly lustrous with a hint of pink overtone. Am wearing it long with the silver hook clasp visible about 1/3 of the way down the strand, but there is plenty of room now for doubling it.

It makes me want to buy some big metallics at some point (these are 6.5 - 7 mm iirc).

Confection, I love your fabulously-layered glowing white pearls. I especially like the rope with the larger pearls mixed in with the smaller ones. Can you tell me the length of the rope and the sizes of the pearls? I have been itching to buy some metallic white pearls, but I want the design to be different than my standard akoya strands.

bsomlo, thanks! Somehow I have been very fond of white pearls lately... :wavey:

Kay, thank You. My rope is 50", pearls are 8mm and 12mm. It is quite versatile lenght. This photo is taken couple of days ago

bsomio, the metallic double strand is TDF. You should wear them more often.

I'm wearing my lavender fireball pendant from POJ, and my own multicolor ripples-and-tourmaline necklace. I'd take a glamour shot of the ripples, but I miscalculated the size of the beads and the toggle clasp--and now I can't take off the necklace!

btw, I finally got the clasp figured out, and here are the closeups:

Cyndaco, that's a very pretty combination; I bet it looks even better in person!

Bsomlo, lovely to see your beautiful Multi-Color Metallics again ... so gorgeous on you :) I especially like the way the white pearls are scattered through the necklace and just pop, visually a bit bigger, and accent the whole necklace ... WELL DONE :appl:

Wow.. lovely souffles...
Happened to wear my souffle necklace today too. Seldom worn cos the colours are a little light and too 'princessy' pink. Sorry, the orange background is not the most flattering either.

YC, I don't think I've seen that before. PP?

I don't think it's "princessy". It would look great with a black scoop or V-neck top, I think. Or the opposite, with a white top. It pops on the orange, too! I like this piece! Of course, what's not to like in a metallic swirling souffle!

Thanks Bsomio for the suggestion. I totally agree with you about the black or white top. The orange is astrong colour and overwhelms the overtones which is mostly pink and green. =) and correct, it was from pp during one of their sales.
Think it is just me.... not a great admirer of light pink pearls cos I feel a bit old for them.. Think my little girl will appreciate it more. Waiting for her to grow older and less destructive.

cyndayco - Love the tourmaline spacers with pearls.

bsomlo - You wear the soufflés so well.

YC - I have a soufflé that color from PP set as an enhancer, and I never wear it. I'm pretty sure it is the color that, while beautiful, simply is not appealing to me when on me. Now, I know that bsomlo could rock it. :twirl:

Today I'm breaking out my new triple look of the PP Tahitian sale "Loot2" strand/rope combo. Topped off with peacock drops from Kamoka that I picked up at the ruckus and a sweater from Belarosa. The drops have a mirror-like surface that reflects everything, but I think you can get a hint of the overtones here. A look to celebrate the first days of fall.
