I have to admit, I didn't go to the Dallas gem show in January with the express purpose of buying myself South Sea pearls. However, there was quite a bit to choose from, and I really liked the strand I chose albeit breaking my pearl budget.
Thank you Pattye for your compliments. And, yes when I look in my closet it is very very heavy on black. One would think I am a funeral director! I love how BN wears such luscious colors with her pearls.
