Xmas Idea 2008

Bond

We saw Bond girls next to him in the picture with the abalone tooth pendant (the Garcia concert).

I forgot about the "bond girl" photo! Maybe it subconsiously planted the idea?

What Bong girl photo?

Jeremy is going to need a new watch to go with the new mobile phone and his new "Bond" image. So I found him this awesome thing....

Whoa! Do you think he is ready for the Ninja stuff? I actually like the watch. Cool.

 

[Amrita]

You folks are so funny!! I am imagining Jeremy sporting all that stuff!

What Bong girl photo?

Bong Girl??????

Does she look like this - diamond encrusted at a cool 98 million.

Here's another pair of shoes for you. Pure gold. No price available.

 

[waimeamomi]

And pearls of course. No holiday hugs for her!

I don't think Jeremy is going to fit in that gold shoe. Not even as his Bond disguise.

The necklace and skull have been done in the previous Xmas Idea 2007

The shoe is crazy. I'll bet that too comes from Ginza Tanaka. I'm having visions of depraved champagne drinking.

Oh, I didn't know there were previous years! A PG tradition. I think this might be a new skull - this one is all diamonds, but I guess the necklace didn't sell last year!! I'd probably just dismantle it if I got it.

I LOVE that spikey wing collar thingie...I could definitely see myself wearing something like that.

Haven't looked at this post since the initial Christmas tree, but I see that my name has actually come up once or twice, so I feel the compulsion to reveal that not only am I a slightly freaky six-foot-tall tattooed person, and a lowly beader, but also a historical costumer and bonafide corsetiere. My favorite costuming eras are 18th century and tiny-waisted Victorian, but I really love mixing up the historical and fantasy influence. I've used pearls (fake) in some renaissance costumes...will definitely use the real thing next time around. My husband tells me I must figure out how to incorporate pearls into my corsets so I can write off trips to Tahiti...gotta work on that...

Sheri - I love your work!

 

[la_corsetiere]

Thanks, Heidi! I know my post isn't strictly pearl-related, but it definitely fits in with the frivoloty of the season...

And if anyone out there is in the market for a nice custom-made corset, perhaps even pearl-encrusted, you know who to contact!

And yes, I DO make them for men, too...

Sheri, Those are just gorgeous and creative!

 

[boo]

I particularly love the corset in the last photo - it does, however, seem to cry out for some abalone pearls to match!

You're absolutely right! Another thing for me to covet...

Actually, I do have a nice abalone horn I've been saving for a pendant/necklace, but it didn't occur to me that I have the perfect outfit to set it off it until you pointed it out to me.

The first time the diamond skull came up on the forum, was in the Pearl of Allah thread LINK
as a suggestion of where to house the pearl, which looks like a brain. The pearl brain case in the thread was for xmas.

What are the designers smoking at Chanel lately?? Just how many logos can they incorporate into a ring before it starts looking like less of a ring and more of a logo in the shape of a ring? Well, they came up with this...
