no pictures but we've been watching the Borgias w/Jeremy Irons and I have been LUSTING BIG TIME over the pearl earrings in each and every episode!

I see Honora has a version of that earring, with a crystal studded ball for the larger bead.

If you watch Scandal you'll see lots of pearls ! There are times I think that every actress is wearing a strand. :appl:

Princess Madeleine of Sweden wearing what I guess are WSSP earrings. These would be my ideal earrings! Does anyone know how the "chain" is made?

I can't really tell from the photo, but they look like small beads... probably diamonds?

Thanks ennui. My guess is they are gold bezeled diamonds, but I can't see them well either. I have a dangle 11-12mm FW in YG chain (1.5 inch total length), and the "normal" chain makes swing a lot, I think her style (on top of being gorgeous, of course) avoids the excessive swinging. I saw PoJ has what might be a somewhat similar setting, but quite shorter:

I have a couple of pairs of earrings in that style, too ... I suspect it's the weight of the pearl that contributes to the swinging. One pair only has 1/2" of chain, but the pearls are 11mm, and they bob.

It looks like the chain is a row of 9 diamonds. Gorgeous earrings.

Thanks Fly Girl! That is a much better photo. Wow, those diamonds look like they are on the bigger side, too. And I see the pearls are actually drops.

And now Ross-Simons is getting into the act. Their Daily Special is the "front-back" earring made with shell pearls. It might be a fun, inexpensive way to try the look?

I saw those pearl and crystal ball earrings on one of the shopping channels-HSN or QVC this week. It was Honora and they were selling for $100 and sold out right away. I am not a home shopper but saw as I was channel surfing.

Lots of people here wear the Emma Watson doudouble pearl look. I'm still undecided. I like it in theory.

Just watched The King's Speech, and loved the two graduated strands worn by Queen Elizabeth (Helena Bonham Carter).

Any guesses on the lengths? I think Helena is a delicate woman, so the shorter is probably 16" ... would the longer be 20"? They were often twisted together at the sides.

I wonder if we'll see pearls at the SAG Awards today?

Felicity Jones was wearing Van Cleef & Arpel pearl and diamond earrings; she said they were vintage. She'll be on the fashion recaps tomorrow, I'm sure.

Frances McDormand was wearing her Tahitian ropes again. They must be her own. She wore them tripled this time. And she won the award for Olive Kitteridge. :appl:

Amy Adams looks gorgeous, it's so important to find the right shade of goldens.
