Those are beautiful akoya, stracci! I like it with the gray in your neckline.

Thanks @baby nurse !
They look good with anything! I wear them often.
But your collection is the ultimate... I enjoy seeing all your pieces! :love:

Tahitian Keshi tin cup from Kojima Pearl and freshwater pearl hoops from Pearl Paradise.

Beautiful! I love how it's edgier than the usual pearl necklaces.

I haven't worn my strands of pearls for a long time because I somehow feel it requires "dressier" clothes and I've gone more casual in my work style. Dresses and Adidas sneakers just don't go together with my long or short strands of pearls... Tell me it's just me and it ain't so....

It ain't so! Mixing pearls with metals gives a more casual look. So instead of wearing a full strand, I usually pick a tincup look for jean Fridays.

So this is my purchase from QVC's Honora day. Pink/peach "ming" pearls (FWPs) on RG chain. I like the mixed pearls/metal look but wish the pearls had more orient. They have good luster but are a bit "flat".

9-10 mm metallic freshwater drop earrings and my mother’s day strand— I exchanged the original freshadama for larger 8.5-9.0 AAA freshwater. I got the orbit clasp. My first strand, and there will be others on the way—I think I’m hooked!

*Beatiful* first strand Kristin Tech!

I love the links in that QVC necklace, baby monster. I wish I could find something like that.

Not today, but I want to play, Over the weekend at a wedding these became my “fancy” pearls. They are 35” south sea baroque, tucked in my dress. This inside “barn” at dim light with no flash, these pearls still shine!

I love the whole look, Rubybrick! Baroque SS and sapphire-diamond (taking a wild guess) earrings and a very cool dress!

I’m wearing metallic fireball pendant from Pearl Paradise and metallic freshwater dangles from Pearls of Joy.

Love love the fireball pendant! It looks like a 3/4 profile of a lady to me!

Thank you for your nice compliment! I was going to just wear the sapphire diamond earrings but the baroque pearls were calling!

@baby nurse - All your pearls are gorgeous - such a classic and timeless look. This is a bit off topic but may I ask where you purchase your lovely sweaters?

Thank you, @Poodles4me!
Most of my sweaters are cashmere (because I freeze during the cool months) and are from Boden and Pure Collection. The one from today and the purple v neck above it are from Boden, the jade crew neck is from Lands End, the light pink v neck and duck egg crew neck are from Pure Collection.

@baby nurse - Thanks very much, I’ll check out Boden amd Pure Collection. I’ve bought from Lands End but have not bought any of their sweaters. I’m like you, always cold. Most of my sweaters are from Eileen Fisher and some older ones were from Eddie Bauer when their quality was still good.

I love the look of your pearl strands with your sweaters. So simple but sophisticated. This thread reminds me that I need to wear my pearls more often.

@baby nurse I have long admired all of your cashmere sweaters. Classic, elegant, timeless and your sweater/pearl combinations are always stunning! You've inspired me to purchase a few for myself!
