Spring Shopping Trip to Pearl Paradise

[lilliefuzzysocks]

Newberry went to Pearl Paradise this week to select her birthday gift to herself. She asked if I needed anything, and I had a list. She and Jeremy have been by personal shoppers in the past. They were on the phone with me for over an hour taking photos for me to consider. Then Jeremy set up a video chat. Here is a taste of what occurred.

I had been going back to those links to drool over the photos. I could not resist the temptation and contacted PP about the white metallic drops and large rounds but alas, they are all gone......

 

[lilliefuzzysocks]

Elisha, They are going to try to get more in soon, have you asked to have your name put on a list when those come in? There is another special coming soon. I can't wait to see what it will be.

 

[Elisha]

lilliefuzzysocks: thanks for the great advice! Will drop them a msg to do so. Anyway, I will probably try to get a pair of fireball earrings instead. Really liked the unusual colours on those pairs that you posted.

Newberry has told me she is going back to Pearl Paradise in July after their next shopping trip. I can't wait.

Oh my goodness, thank you for sharing, that was fantastic - enjoy the wearing!

I called my personal shopper Newberry at work so she could be "here" when I opened the package from PP. I opened the Cherry Tahitian earrings first. I was hoping they would go with my other pieces in this color. I am so glad I chose the Eternal Collection diamond earring findings. I love the snap to close hinge, the oval style, very shiny white diamonds and the O ring is at the bottom of the oval, not the front. They are well balanced and perfect for these pearls. I am SO happy. Here are the photos I took with my other earrings and necklaces.
From the side. Cherry with green halo overtones.... So perfect.

Then I opened the Golden South Sea necklace. I still can't believe I own one. If you would have told me back in 2000 when I bought my first black pearl in Morrea that I would own a Tahitian strand I would have told you I can't believe it. To have a White SS and now a Golden? This girl is in pearl heaven.
Last November Personal Shopper Newberry went shopping at Pearl Paradise and found me these dark golden ss pearls for earrings. They are set with the blossom settings. I had purchased the ring from a woman on ebay, along with the light golden studs, which I have had for years. Here they are with my new baby.
(((((((((( Thank you Jeremy and personal shopper Newberry for helping me add to my pearl collection. )))))))))))))) I appreciate you!

LFS,

I'm so very happy for you and your over the top collection of pearls!!!!!!

Not enough superlatives for these amazing pearls! So, so gorgeous! Love them all and hope to see you in them at some point this year! Kudos to Newberry and of course, Jeremy and the Pearl Paradise team!

lillie.f.s. - What stunning pearls!!! Thank you so much for the photos of your cherries and the new golden strand. The new pearls look amazing with your existing pieces.

Someday I have to see those cherry pearls in person. You have posted photos before, and I never tire of seeing them again.

That shopping trip of Newberry's to PP was so fun. How nice of her to act as a personal shopper.

 

[Pearl Dreams]

Lovely! I'd love to see a neck shot of the golden SSP-- I've often wondered what that color would look like against skin.
