Show Us Your Pearls In Action!!!

Beautiful as a set, BWeaves!

Welcome, PearlyLibrarian! Studs are always a great choice. Versatile and work for any occasion, and especially with your busy baby life. I love tin cups, too! So glad you found this forum!

All things I put together- earring jackets and tin cup necklaces with tiny Tahitian pearls from Alex Collins, and a necklace I made with Tahitian/T keshi.

Welcome PearlyLibrarian. I love your collection.

It's not easy being green, Pistachio edition. I just bought a new phone today. Pistachio green.

Mixed tin-cup, ombre' Tahitian tin-cup, and pistachio Tahitian studs from Kojima. Pistachio baroque akoyas from PP. It was the only strand that PP had at that Ruckus. The wall behind me is also green.

To go with my blue stripy shirt, I paired my blue baroque akoya bracelet linked with a chunky silver bracelet, worn as a necklace. I really like how the silver links give an edge to pearls!

Thanks for the warm welcome @jeg and everyone!

@BWeaves I love those Tahitians - that’s definitely where my interest is for building out my collection!

@Pomelo I am definitely on the hunt for a bracelet to borrow your fantastic idea. I have a bracelet coming soon that I think would be amazing in that configuration.

I originally got these 5.5mm silver blue akoya studs to stack with my 7mms, but I actually liked mixing them with the creamy freshwater pair today. Since I’m a bit limited on dangles now, I think I’ll get creative with mixing stacks of studs. Luckily I have a few piercings to allow for options!

Your green must’ve rubbed off on me, BWeaves, but I only got as far as clothes…

Pomelo, the chain and bracelet combo work great together!

PearlyLibrarian, yes, please mix and play! Who doesn’t love to have options?!

A friend had a short-notice birthday dinner, so I got to escape for a quick 2-hour sans babies outing.

Which means …. Dangles! And a strand! Paired with jeans and a navy blue shirt, this was my first time wearing these metallic French hook drops and this metallic drop strand from PP. They felt so nice to wear and match so wonderfully even though they weren’t sold as a set. They are actually luminous. I took two pictures in different lighting, and the pearls look like they’ve got their own spotlight. Something about the drop shape of the pearls makes the strand feel more modern and casual to me.

Welcome PearlyLibrarian! You, your pearls and that glimpse of new baby all glow Nice to have you with us!

 

[BWeaves]

They are luminous. They really glow in your photos.

What a treat to be able to wear your pearls, PearlyLibrarian! They are so glowy and look great on you!

Mom's dragon torsade. I did take a photo wearing them, but I managed to have the clasp upside down, doh! Freshwater rice krispie pearls. 12 strands. They're very iridescent, and slightly peachy pink.

They probably need a good wash, but I don't relish restringing this necklace. The clasp is actually attached to the beads that go into the back of the dragon's head and has safety latches on the underside. The necklace is just long enough to slip over my head, so I try not to futz with the clasp.
