Jeg, both the champagne south sea strand and the ombre tahitian strand are gorgeous. I do have a thing for ombres, they are pleasing somehow.
Gemandpearllover, your tahitian strand looks great with Beaders secret in plum, even though I can't see the plum on my screen. I did buy plum recently, but haven't used it yet, but I can imagine it goes well with tahitians.

Your tahitian strand looks great on you Annie. What did you have in mind with the strand? It do looks great as it is.
