365 Days of Pearls

[baby nurse]

Thank you, Floridapearl, Cicadalady, BWeaves and JerseyPearl!

BWeaves, yes the earrings are a bit heavy! In fact if you look at the first earring pic, you can see how the earring tugs down on my piercing.

Day 149:

I can't lie. I spent the day at the ocean and didn't wear a single pearl for fear it would get damaged by sunblock/bug spray/sand. But had I worn pearls, this would have been it: soufflé and blue baroque akoya tin cup by Hisano of little h Jewelry.

I ogled that soufflé tin cup when it was posted on PP but I never pulled the trigger. It's gorgeous.

Your collection is truly amazing! I love popping in and drooling over your beauties

 

[amti]

Those souffles look like little clouds!!! Another lustrous piece worth of envy!

 

[Abi]

They look gorgeous on you! The chain looks extra dainty besides those beautiful *clouds. ( stole the word from Amti's post )

Thank you, BWeaves, kalmen, amti, and Abi!

Day 150:

Today I wore my Kojima waterfall necklace, Kojima Keshi necklace and Catherine Cardellini ripple strand. Earrings are akoya studs from Pearl Paradise.

Looking at the pictures, I'm realizing that this was a really beautiful look until I added the ripples. I love these ripples but all three pieces together is too much. However it's what I wore today so here are the pictures: )

Be still my heart!! BN your look was not to many pearls for me

 

[Marianne]

I'll agree with newberry. It is a totally regal look

 

[Sanippy]

Beautiful pearls and beautiful layering BN!

 

[Katbran]

I'm LOVIN that white pearl layering !!!! Fab- u- lus !! or perhaps I should say Fab - u - Lustre !

 

[MidnightLily]

This thread has to be my go-to thread for my pearl fantasy.

These pieces are just amazing

 

[Cicadalady]

NOT too much, BN! Nothing succeeds like excess!!!

 

[BWeaves]

NOT too much, BN! Nothing succeeds like excess!!!

To quote Benny Hill, "Nothing succeeds like a budgy with no teeth." (say it out loud)

I love the look, but I agree, I think I like the waterfall with the keshi and without the ripples. But that is because the first two create a triple of similar sized pearls, and I'm a sucker for a triple.

 

[JerseyPearl]

Count me in as a fan of the three strands together. I love an over the top layered look (but it's not too over the top). I think it works because you've kept a uniform element...in this case white pearls. I love love love layering for a bold look around the neck.

 

[lmgarden]

BN, I love this look - the fact that your layering combo consists of an uneven rope, single ripple strand and a small keshi strand gives this look more levels of interest! A bit trickier to achieve with more than one color, but not impossible. And of course, any one of these would look lovely on their own! I say layering is part of the fun of wearing pearls!!

Day 151:

White South Seas and Tahitians! The Tahitian/wss necklace and wss earrings are from Pearl Paradise, the wss stretch bracelet is from Kojima Pearl.

 

[Sanippy]

I love this necklace! The SSP and Tahitians complement each other so well.

 

[Katbran]

I love everything ! But that necklace ...mmmmmmmm ..I could eat that up ! The pearls are lovely!

 

[BWeaves]

Stunning. Absolutely gorgeous.
