Pearls

I don't know why, but I love wearing pearls.



I pulled out all my pearls yesterday, just feeling fancy.

The pearl earrings from my aunt for my Confirmation, that at the time seemed like a horrible gift (I was 12 and confused.) but I now love dearly. The one necklace was my grandma's. Another, my father-in-law made me. The third was $1 at a garage sale.

Why do I love putting on my pearls? I think this has a lot to do with it...

I love piling on a whole bunch of different strands of pearls - it gives them some edge. Great look!

breakfast at tiffanys is one of my all time favorite movies! it never gets old! pearls are really what defines a classy, stylish girl. you can wear them with jeans or a little black dress and either way your look is pulled together. I love your outfit btw, you look great!

I was given some pearls by my Grandma - my Great Grandma had intended to give them to me on my 21st birthday but I think her Alzheimers had well and truly kicked in by that point and it wasn't till my Grandparents cleared out her room at the Old Folks home that they found a little cardboard jewellry box with my name written on it. Unfortunately I was going to wear them and the clasp came off :( hopefully I can fix it or at least do something with them so they are still wear able.

I've never seen Breakfast at Tiffany's I really want to see it though.
