So It's On Hold, What Do We Think?

[iLander]

I like this strand from Jose, it's got cool colors, but I'm just not sure if it's too weird. It is a multicolor, so not sure if I like that. I have that bracelet from Sarah that is a multi Tahitian (NOTE TO FLYGIRL; yes, turns out I wear it a LOT because it's on an elastic band! You said I might do that, and you were right!) and I like looking at it and playing with it. I like the multiple colors around my wrist.

BUT I am not sure I want a multi around my neck. That's the question; will it look disjointed and odd as a necklace?

I asked him to send me extra pics because I can never tell anything from a single picture, and that magnify thing on his site doesn't work for my MAC very well. I also like to see pearls in different lights since they change so much.

So, what do you think? Go or no?

Does anyone else have a multi color necklace they can link to or add? So that I can see how it looks around your neck?

It's a matter of taste, iLander. I love multi colors, and those colors would look great with my fall wardrobe colors.

I think you will have to get it and try it on to be sure. Remember what happened with the Kasumis?

much would depend on your skin color and hair color.....the colors seem very strong and while i like it i'd probably go something a bit more subdued.....odd statement coming from me, i know....

We think you should buy it. And then take lots of pictures to show the rest of us.

LOVE IT! The price is right too. I would absolutely get it. And matching earrings

very nice colors on that strand, he does have very nice pieces. There's only one way to find out if the strand will look good around your neck, many women love the look of multi-strand Tahitians but just don't like how they look on their neck.

I'm sure Jose has a good return policy, so take a chance and if they don't look good on you send them back.

Beautiful strand ilander. I did not really like multi color strands until I found the right one for me. Love our choice the luster is yummy. Jose it great to work with. I would get it and try on and see how it looks on you.

 

[iLander]

Thanks for the great advice, everybody!

I'll give it another think, and if I decide to get it, I'll let everyone know. I'm so conflicted!

iLander,

You know pearls look different on your skin compared to neutral background. Just order it and try it on. I don't know how many times it's happened to me when I think something doesn't look good in pictures or on neutral background, but it's fabulous on me.

Beautiful strand. I wear multi color most of the time. They go with everything. Hope you love yours as much as I love mine.

 

[beadchick]

Ilander, Did you get it?

 

[iLander]

Ilander, Did you get it?

No.

My tooth broke while I was eating a sandwich, now I have to get a root canal, a post and a whole new tooth (cap). The bill on this horror is $2000!

You have no idea how unhappy this makes me; spending a bucket of money with no bling in return. Really stinks.

It's off hold, maybe someone from PS will buy it an enjoy it.

 

[iLander]

Oh, the heck with it, I ordered them.

It's worth a try to see if I like them, and I can always sell the gold necklace I was talking about in hangout. I've tried wearing the necklace, and it's just not really me.

I'll let everyone know how it goes . . .

 

[Fly Girl]

Oh, the heck with it, I ordered them.

Looking forward to seeing your pictures and evaulation of this strand.

Jose called me and I think I'm going to do a 16 inch strand with a chain extender to 18 inches. I want a lot of flexibility, I think.

 

[beadchick]

Hooray!!!

I'm glad you caved. I confess, I was thinking about it. (Not that i SHOULD buy any more pearls right now...)

Can't wait to see pictures!
