and the gem of queens. nothing says elegant more than pearls. every woman should, must own at least a single strand of pearl, be it a choker or opera length.
if i have my own talk show, my audience will each get a set of these today.
A lovely image. Your pearls are beautiful. I have several sets of pearls and earrings but honestly, no place to wear them. I cannot part with them though.
I am lucky to have a necklace and several earrings! I could never make them look as pretty as you do in this photo though! Fabulous shallow DOF, detail, composition and light.
I do like pearls and own several strands (mine, mother's and grandmother's) but don't seem to wear them very much. I'm not one to wear "jewels" with blue jeans and somehow couldn't wear them to work for fear they might be literally ripped off.
Knew this was yours ... most of my pearls are from the South of China and the Philippines, bought several strands on the Philippine market in the North of Borneo when living in Brunei. Love the idea of your handing those out to your audience
