Well here it is finally. No it did not take this long to ship. I have just been lax in getting it on here. I think it looks very pretty and I am happy with it. However the loops, to me, seemed thin. I figured they would feel sturdier. The pearl does have a nice light chocolate look. I saw...

Of course :) There is always that.

:) Thanks for the suggestion Karin. I will definitely keep that in mind. Probably should have started here to begin with. Learning, learning....
