It is so much fun reading this thread! I need to check on it more over the weekend!
Confection10 - Bikinis & pearls - what could ever go wrong with that!?! And you're killing me with your bracelets - gorgeous! I need more bracelets so I can be dazzled throughout the day like you can!
Gem Fever - Nice to see you! Your green T's are just perfect on you and I look forward to seeing your new silver T's. Aren't PP sales fun?!?!
bsomlo - Classic is right (your white strand with nave blue). And your metallics with the citrines are so lovely and feminine!
baby nurse - I enjoy seeing your ripples and they're still on my wish list!
baby monster - I don't wear pearls around the house as much as I'd like to but you could be setting a trend!
I don't want you all ot think I don't wear my pearls very often (!) but when I wear them with dark shirts I just can't capture them! Today I'm wearing a simple black boatneck top with my T tin cup. Love the sparkle of the chain with the glow of the pearls!
bsomlo - I love your keishis and helium balloon! I'm not the queen of layering (far from it) but I think it would be cool to have a longer strand too to frame the balloon! Ok I'm ready for the feedback lol!
Today I'm wearing a Y necklace designed by Hisano that was on sale last year. I love the ombre effect with freshadama and metallic pearls (ivory/gold to peach/gold) with a few citrines thrown in! Couldn't quite capture the beauty of these pearls.
That is one gorgeous pearl, bsomlo. Great necklace with the accent pearls.
Today was black Tahitian day. Small dark charcoal baroque Kamoka Tahitian pearl strand and my new "ink" Tahitian studs from Kojima Pearl. My dark Tahitian baroque with green overtones bracelet from T Lee. The Tahitian studs showed green overtones in the vendor photo, so I wasn't sure why Sarah called them "ink", but I found out that they are pretty much black in person. Love them!
I'm a couple of days behind in posting these. We had lovely warm weather this week and my summer blouses came out. And of course, the matching pearls!
The second picture has funny mirror reflections, but shows the colour of the pearls a little better.
And these are from today. Horrible fuorescent lighting at work. But still, you can see them.
My CC purple set. Not sure how they work with the yellow top. The bracelet looks good though.
