Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

[battah]

Battah, somehow I missed your brooch post. Wow! I never thought of wearing a brooch (or two) on a cowl neck before. I love it. I've always steered away from cowl necks in the past because they are not pearl necklace friendly. This is a wonderful look.

Thank you! It was inspired by my misunderstanding of something JP said in our last discussion - happy accident. The brooches also helped keep the cowl in place and sort of spread out nicely, instead of bunching and hanging down, so that was a nice bonus.

Lol I raid my poor mom every year! The fire opals have nice green flashes to them, but doesn't quite show up with my poor photos!

Purr I always look forward to seeing what you snag from her box! She has incredible taste.

Today's look! They don't match each other but they're fun. I'll make a separate post for the rings, they're new. Mini souffles from John Tu, two PP freshwater strands linked together, and three giant stackers from Kong's Pearl.

 

[Purranha]

OMG look at the LUSTER of those stackers!!!!!

Purr, I don't care if it's pearls or not - I always love seeing your mom's jewels. They are fantastic!

BWeaves, try wearing your pearl choker next time you wear a cowl neck.

Purr, wowza! That's amazing.

Battah, your stackers blow me away!

It's been go big for me lately. I picked up these gorgeous white souffle pearls during the PP Black Friday sale. I paid to have them restrung on a orbit clasp so I could attach them to an extender.

Several years ago I showed Jeremy my souffle pendant from Kojima Pearl, and said I preferred a white body souffle with strong pink and blue overtones. These metallic white beauties have wonderful shapes, as well as blue and pink overtones. I adore them. And, the light weight is a real bonus.

 

[Purranha]

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!! Just got this picture from Hisano, this is coming to me!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Pearl Dreams]

Wow, that is stunning!

 

[Red]

Very nice ring, Purranha. Both of them, actually.

 

[JerseyPearl]

Red, Love your soufflé pearls.

Purr, that ring is gorgeous. I opted for little h earrings because I'm just too hard on rings. I'd be knocking off those stones left and right.

 

[lary007]

Oh, swoon! That ring is just perfect, purr!

Red- I am super curious about souffles..but having never seen them in person I am a little apprehensive about buying some online. I really really like the way those look! You may have convinced me to give them a whirl!

 

[battah]

Red, those soufflés are gorgeous! Great choice!

Purr you know I love the ring! I’m in love with that little h style, it’s gorgeous! Can’t wait to see your pic of that ring going places

Purr that LH ring is beautiful...but I'm with JP - There wouldn't be anything left of that ring on my hand after a few wears ! I'm forever knocking into things !! But you MOM"S ring ... that's amazing !!!

Battah - wow that's a great set of rings !!

Red - The white Souff's are beautiful...and you are right about the weight ! Perfect for people that want the size but hate the drag of large pearls.

 

[BWeaves]

OMG, so many beautiful things posted. I love them all.

Stop me before I buy again....

Stop me before I buy again....

Hi everyone! I've been really sick the last few days so no ear or neck shots....but here are a couple of quick snaps of my latest purchases! The 8.5-9mm multicolor Edison necklace just arrived today (the colors are amazing on these pearls. kinda wish I got a different, larger clasp though...), 10-11mm Peacock Edison studs (love these things...hard to photograph...they change in the light and are more iridescent and darker than this photo...), and 9-10mm GSS studs.

I think I'm set for the holidays now.

 

[Pearl Dreams]

Very pretty, enkeli! How about a neck shot and ear shot?

 

[JerseyPearl]

Gorgeous pearls. Please do post neck/ear shots when you are feeling up to it!

 

[BWeaves]

Stunning. I'd love to see neck and ear shots, too.

I ran my errands today wearing my baroque akoya necklace and SSP dangles, both from PP.

I find these go really well together, size wise and color wise. The earrings photo came out a bit fuzzy, but you get the idea.
