Meryl Streep as "Miranda Priestly" in THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA ,wears a strand of tahitians that are killer huge. I think I have watched that part of the movie a dozen times just to see that stand of pearls. Addict, yes?

Katie, I too watched the Gwyneth Paltrow version, but fell in love with her earrings instead of the necklace...the pearls stuck 3 together like a triangle. I wore them for years. One problem- the way I tended to grasp them by the edges when taking them off made for several repairs.

I've watched Grace Kelly in Rear Window about a zillion times just to look at her pearls.
Have you seen that bracelet she wears? It's to die for!
barbie

Of course what's not to like about Jimmy Stewart and Grace Kelly anyway?

Grace Kelly wore Mikis when she was married, but I haven't been able to get a good look at her crown. Anybody? Anybody?

She wore two different pearl bracelets in Rear Window. Oops! How'd he get there!
