Hi Pearl Lovers! I thought it would be really fun to share what pearls we are wearing when the mood strikes us. I am looking forward to seeing what fellow pearl lovers around the world are wearing -- a bright spot in everyone's day!

Here goes -- I ended up changing my plans and deciding to go very light and simple today.

Here is a tiny pair of Mikimoto earrings I "won" at my children's school's fundraising auction last year:



And here is a simple short strand of what I assume to be CFW my parents bought for me decades ago in Hong Kong (to this day the best knotted strand I own and it's never been re-knotted):



And here is my attempt at a selfie using my cell phone, kind of ridiculous, but you get the idea:



What are YOU wearing?!

Fun post! Pretty pattern on your top.

I'm actually wearing my champagne faux pearl strand because it goes with today's dress. Not sure if we're allowed to post faux pearls or if anyone wants to see faux.

Seeing as we seem to be allowing faux pearls ;-)

I am wearing a strand of silver Alexis Bittar pearls, 18 inches, pearls graduated at 5mm, 7mm and 9mm with one pearl at about 18mm including a silver and crystal fixing.

Hello and Happy June to you all!

Today I continued with the light and simple style.

Here are pink button pearl earrings forming a "grape cluster". The shephard's hook is a very nice quality solid gold, the nicest hook I own:



And here is an inexpensive strand of pink potato pearls strung on nylon (unknotted) with a silver clasp:



Voila... pearls of the day:



How about YOU?

This simple elegant set of earrings with the flower hook and the pendant you are wearing are lovely. You want to showoff the pearls, so the settings should be as simple as possible. Thanks for sharing.

I decided to wear my 9.0 - 9.5 mm 26" hanadama necklace today with my pearl drop earrings. By the way, I always get compliments on my dresses, but RARELY on my pearls. I've concluded that people must be assuming they are all fakes. (Which makes me giggle inside my head...)







Here I am wearing them!
