Thanks, SunSeeker! A way of finding cool water and charming backgrounds! Lovely pearl Jeg. Love the subtle variety of colors in it.

I know the 'my wardrobe and my jewelry are not quite on the same level' struggle, nnguye, but have finally decided to just go with it. If folks have a problem with it, they can just look somewhere else! Good source of inspiration, I'd say - I just got my first order from her today and don't...

Thanks newberry, Katbran, BWeaves again, Charlotta, 86C, and lary007! Know how you feel about the heat, BWeaves; yesterday was the first time I'd tried to wear a necklace in days. Heat index has been hovering between 111-117 most days, with actual temperatures in the mid-to-high nineties. I...

Those necklaces! I love the one with the coral and the pastel-looking tin cup with the darker pearl hanging from a two-sided chain in particular.

Love your soufflé ring BN; I admired it greatly when I first started perusing this thread and I love getting to look at it again now. The earrings are adorable, but that ring...it's a scene-stealer, and you wear it so well! I've noticed you have several really beautiful pearl rings. Do you...

*bows* Thanks!

Ask and ye shall receive.... Just for fun and to see how it would look, I added my sixteen-inch AAA white freshwater necklace (Pearl Paradise) and both of the ‘fauxinees’ I mentioned (lavender freshwaters from Pearl Paradise, ‘imperial lace’ from the Zales days). Then I added my pearl tassel...

BWeaves, what doesn’t? Lol. I considered adding my lavender strand and maybe one of the whites, but was concerned the lengths could result in scratches to the pearls from the hummingbird. In retrospect I should have gone with my 16-inch white, or hooked either my lavender necklace and bracelet...

PD, yes, I believe that’s their size. Thanks! Charlotta, I’ve also noticed a lot of pearls - especially Tahitians - feeling ‘soft’/silky to the touch. Beautiful earrings - I think they’d wear really well with your stunning Tahitian tin cups! BWeaves, if that photo doesn’t capture their beauty...

That rope is a magnificent head-turner - agree with Pattye that the touch of blue just elevates it over the top. Also love those earrings!

Love the sharp luster and soft shapes of those baroques, Frost Me! BWeaves, that Tahitian keshi is tdf! It was an intensely hot, muggy day of activity here (sorting items to be donated to charity in the morning, and my first-ever D&D game with friends is in about an hour, if the WiFi will stay...

BWeaves, I know! Plus everyone has a different neck, different clothes and styles...Baby Nurse, of course, can pull off any and everything with pearls, but how one wears one's pearls, and what sort of pearls one wears, is a rather individual thing.

I have a minor habit of seeking out and reading the 'self-help books of elegance' - curious to see how people try to define in solid terms a rather abstract, to my way of thinking, concept. One of them made a point of saying that triple strands are okay in certain cases, but that double strands...

Oh gosh. Gorgeous. They look like they were made to be one necklace.

Lovely blues! I also have a twenty-inch blue baroque Akoya strand from Pearl Paradise, though mine is 7-7.5mm, I believe. Just know that the blue bug can bite hard - I have since acquired an eighteen-inch strand and bracelet (also from Pearl Paradise), an eighteen-inch 5.6-6mm Vietnamese...

Beautiful and fascinating! Thanks for the links, GemGeek!

Lovely necklace, Charlotta! The banded Tahitians go very nicely together.

I love the combination of Tahitian pearl and opal, but am just swooning over that pendant. It's worthy of the name.

Gorgeous combination; the coral necklaces make the goldens more summery/casual and the golden drop on the coral strand ties it all together! Inspirational and lovely.

Beautiful combo Jeg; love how the keshi complement the lace-and-check pattern (and just like lace and that shade of yellow)
