bsomlo - Your triple strand is so beautiful and meaningful! It's impossible to beat gorgeous pearls, earrings and a necklace clasp hand-selected by your DH. Wear them proudly and in good health!

I'm wearing a triple strand today also (just not as sophisticated and meaningful as yours!). I took a fw multi-color rope and wrapped it around 3 times. You'll see a picture of it more casual, "messed up" and then one in a more classic look. The earrings are lavender Edisons. I think spring is coming!

bsomlo how sweet of your hubby to gift that lovely triple to you with that GORGEOUS clasp and lovely earrings :twirl: :twirl: :twirl: He has very good taste :praise: Those lovely ripples of yours are calling my name :naughty:

pkknnew Wowza :love: :love: :love: Your golden SS and wSS strand and dangles makes for one FABULOUS set! Haha, for me it would be hard to wear anything else if that was in my collection! Your lavender Edison earrings are SO pretty! What setting are they on?

baby nurse I love seeing photos of your beautiful wSS pendant! This is the pendant that inspired my to get my wSS one :wavey:

LitGeek - I bought these earrings from ShopHQ about a year ago and the settings are 14k gold with tiny diamond accents. They don't have any of these now but they do have a few other Edison pieces available.

bsomlo - You're so observant! The reason the casual is longer is because I REALLY struggled to get the three strands tight together and the only way I could do it was to bring it higher on the neck. I really went through a lot of pictures to come up with those!!! I'm learning, though!

baby nurse - Your sweater and ripple pearls from a few days ago go perfect together! No wondering you kept them as a team! And your baroque SS pendant is so classic!

bsomlo - Lavender ripples without pearl earrings? Are you feeling ok? Someone call a medic!

Confection10 - Your Tahitians, grays and whites are memorable. Keep them coming!

Today I went with my gold & white SS strand and gold SS & diamond earrings. I'm wearing a simple tuxedo-like white shirt so I thought I'd glam it up a bit!


Pkinnew, this gold and white SS strand is to die for! It looks beautiful on you and I love it with the white shirt! I'm adding a white and gold SS strand to my list of wants!!

Today, I wore the triple that started it all. DH chose this for me in Hong Kong years ago (he bought each strand and the clasp separately). I've always loved it, but only the last three pearls on each strand were knotted. I'd been fretting over who to trust to properly knot it. Hisano did a loving job. DH also chose lovely dangle earrings to go with the necklace:

The triple turned out beautifully :appl: Such an interesting clasp and pretty earrings-- your hubby did very well!!

The shirt felt too bare with just one string

Confection, I love this mix! Your shorter Tahitian strand is just what I'm hoping to find someday, and I love the mix of light colored pearls (what are they?) with the Tahitians in the longer strand. Is that longer one one that you put together?

More pics of the POJ ripples. These originally belonged to bsomlo, who loved them and hated to part with them but they were uncomfortably large for her :blackeye: . I'm so very pleased to have them. Thank you b :wavey: !

Here they are with a pink cashmere crew that I kept specifically because of the pearls. Am I the only one who buys clothing that will suit their pearls ??

Beautiful pearls. And, as for buying clothing to suit your pearls, OF COURSE. All of my outfits (excluding such things as yoga clothing and pajamas, of course) are selected to be worn with my pearls. :roll:

I agree with baby nurse and Fly Girl -- clothing is bought to suit/frame/compliment the pearls.

Those ripples are gorgeous on you and perfect with that sweater.

Confection..love the look of the pearl layers. The Tahitians look enormous.. what size are they please? And I love the tin cup, what are the little white pearls? Fabulous layering!

And Baby Nurse, those POJ white pearls are gorgeous...I'll bet you wear them alot ! And a beautiful pink sweater .. classic with a twist.

Bsomlo - love the souffle tin cup necklace. When I first saw the souffles in Hong Kong..I thought my eyes would pop out. I was so amazed at the colours... fascinating. Wish I'd bought a strand at the time...tho they were a small fortune.. (they were huge tho )

baby nurse, Amour Et Diamants, bsomlo, baby monster and Confection10 - What great fun it's been catching up on everyone's beauties! Mixin' and matchin' is the way to go! Unfortunately due to circumstances out of my control no pearls for me since last Thu but I hope to get back in the swing soon! You all have such wonderful pearls - congratulations and wear them in the best of health!

Lol yes I figured I wasn't the only one. What I really meant though was do others keep clothing that looks "ok" on them, but brings out such fabulous colors in the pearls that they must keep the outfit. I have at least 3 tops that I would have returned if it weren't for the pearls.

Thanks for the compliments Fly Girl, bsomlo, and Pkinnew!

Baby monster, those green Tahitians are really beautiful, and look huge! I think I asked you this before, roughly what size are the ones in the front?

baby nurse, thanks. White pearls are misshapen Edison from Wendy, Pearlescence. They have amazing colourful hue. Yes, I ordered second strand Tahitians and knotted them together, if You meant that. Your ripples are stunning. And how they catch colour from Your blouse :love: . Every morning I choose pearls and try to find suitable shirt with them :wavey:

periwinklegirl, thanks. I never thought it would work, but it did :wavey:

katbran, thanks! They are about 12-14mm, whites are about 9-11mm misshapen Edisons :wavey:

baby monster, lovely greens, all of them :appl:

pkinnew, thanks! Hope, You'll bring Your pearls back soon :wavey:



Today happy purple keshi rope and some character strand (in first shot all pearls are nicely in order, last one shows what they really want to do; dance around :lol: )
