    Who is attending the Pearl-Guide Ruckus 2016, July 29, 30, 31???

    Please tell me LA has good air con everywhere, otherwise I am going to melt, as the weather forecast predicted high 20s/low 30s degC during my stay! And anything over 20 degC is considered as "hot" for me! DK :rolleyes:

    Who is attending the Pearl-Guide Ruckus 2016, July 29, 30, 31???

    I shall travel to the mansion on Friday by myself, as I have made plans for the few hours I have spare. And I am easily recognised - a short and plus size Chinese who wears glasses, bold and colourful Jamsworld Hawaiian shirts, usually with shorts, and black Crocs. DK :D

    My Sea of Cortez Mabe Ring

    I purchased this SoC Mabe from Eastern Tradewind/Agustus-Collection with the intention of setting it as a pendant drop. However, it is too small for my large frame, and I had it set in a ring instead. Ring size is 12 US, in 14K White Gold, diamond melees are 1.5mm each, and I am very pleased...

    Who is attending the Pearl-Guide Ruckus 2016, July 29, 30, 31???

    Hi peeps, I arrive in LA on Thu 28 July, and shall stay overnight in a nearby hotel, and would appreciate a lift to Palazzo Beverly Hills if at all possible. Not an issue if it proves to be a logistical nightmare, as it is not too far from the hotel, and I can go there by taxi or whatever. DK :)

    Pick a design for my Conch Pearl

    Hmmmm, the first design is more casual, and the third design more formal. I would choose one of these two, depending on lifestyle and how much wear I would like to get out of it. Not keen on the second design for the following reasons: the colour combination does not pop at me (I appreciate...

    Big Honking Pearls

    I resisted the baroque Eddison strands, much as I love to have a Wilma Flintstone necklace as some of you may know. However, I have come to realise in the past couple of years that I wear pendants a lot more than necklaces, and am saving up for some very nice and big pearls for pendants. DK :)

    How big is too big? (A PSS problem...)

    I looked like a frog/chameleon with round pearls bigger than 10mm, and sold the pair of CFWP 12-13mm rounds I picked up from HK a while back as they did not suit me. However, I can wear button shaped ones as big as 12mm, and picked up a nice inexpensive pair when I was in HK last year when I...
