365 Days of Pearls

[baby nurse]

If I were into, or practicing, stringing -- I'd try it with popping red.

Those goldens take my breath away, baby nurse.

Thanks BAS!

 

[baby nurse]

Oooh, I bet that strand would look fantastic with red!

Love the warrior princess look of todays mash-up.

Yessss! Warrior princess How do you do it, Jersey Pearl? Such an artist’s eye.

 

[baby nurse]

I wasn't thinking warrior princess until JP said it, and now I fully expect a sword, a shield, and Wonder Woman tiara in the next photo. I love the look. I admired the MOP necklace on JEG at my first RUCKUS. Yours is gorgeous, too.

I admired hers too! (Thank you, JEG.)

Day 272:

White feather pearl necklace from Kojima Pearl and metallic fwp studs from Pearl Paradise.

 

[JerseyPearl]

I love today's look too! So delicate...the princess side.

 

[pattye]

Look how the feather pearl reflects the pink of the sweater, so pretty!

 

[BWeaves]

I think I'm going to have to see feather pearls in person, because this is just so gorgeous.

 

[baby nurse]

Thanks, JerseyPearl, pattye, and BWeaves!

Day 273:

I’m so excited— I bought new pearls! These are stick pearls from Catherine Cardellini. I’d always pause when I’d see these on her website... but I had so many pearls! Then I saw BAS’s strand of pink stick pearls and I was floored. Luster and overtones on these are breathtaking and shapes are interesting as well. I paired them with freshwater drops.

 

[Pearl Dreams]

Beautiful iridescent colors, BN! A big look to that necklace.

 

[BWeaves]

Wow, what luster!

 

[baby nurse]

Thank you, Pearl Dreams and BWeaves!

 

[Sanippy]

Beautiful BN!

 

[Pareltje]

That luster and iridescence are spectacular!

 

[Fidgetnator]

How beautiful and unique!
J.

 

[Katbran]

Sticks do have the most amazing lustre and a real tribal feel ! Very pretty !

 

[baby nurse]

Thank you, Sanippy, Pareltje, Fidgetnator, and Katbran!

Day 274:

Tahitian necklace from Pearl Paradise and earrings from Kojima Pearl.

Metallic freshwater rope from Pearl Paradise, Tahitian necklace from P
These two necklaces inspire ferocious desires, especially the dark necklace, for Winter's crackling fires.
(although I must say, after breathing in the neighbor's fireplace smoke all bloody Winter, the romance of fire has long been depleted)

 

[baby nurse]

Thank you, lisa c!

I must have a different fireplace smoke in mind, because I love the smell of it! Or maybe the fact that it isn’t constantly there makes it pleasant...

 

[lisa c]

Sadly, yes it taxes the lungs to be on the other side of a drawing chimney for months. Who knew?
Some neighbors have been supplementing their normal heating systems with wood-burning this winter.

Anyway, Winter is my favorite season (cold crisp air, snow and cashmere) so when the smoke clears, fires will go back to Pure Romance, and photos of your gorgeous collection of pearls (and cashmere).

**p.s. don't worry about pearl hoarding until you can fill a claw-footed bathtub to the rim. Or maybe a basement. That's the Rule.**
