pearls

"a woman needs ropes and ropes of pearls." - coco chanel

i love pearl chokers. i have a short strand of tiny beads, real one, for everyday office wear, and quite a few of twisted multi-strands, fake of course, like this one. and i have the long ropes, quite a few of them, and some in colour.

if i have my own talk show like oprah, it's what i would give to my audience, among other things.

You take some of the "simplest ideas" and make them look so cool! And of course I always love your captions...they take off in fascinating directions! Just finished cleaning up the kitchen post-dinner party with the young musicians...sure miss Ken and his helping hands!

Finally had time to sit at the computer for a few minutes, saw your note and am wondering what the "curated" page is! Haven't heard of that.

Hoping for a quiet day tomorrow... Today was filled with shopping, cooking and partying! Not so bad, now that I think of it! ♥

Beautifully shot. I had an amethyst choker which I loved. It fell to bits and now I cannot find another.

@sunnygreenwood Don't let her fool you with that "rusty" talk! "She's still got it!" We can always check in for another good story!

Thanks for the message, darlin'! I just sent it over to the guys at their morning workshop!

I really like this. The only pearls I have are plastic- unless you count all the pearls of wisdom people say I have dispensed through the years. (o:
