SPECIAL PEARLS // fashion, jewelry , culture

WHEN IN DOUBT , WEAR PEARLS

There is something about pearls that reminds me of weddings. I am sure your mother or grandmother had a pearls in their jewelry boxes. My mother had a lovely cultured necklace plus some other pieces, a pearl ring, earrings etc. Something she would wear on special occasions or in general. Mostly the ring and earrings. I do like pearls, but really don't wear any, other then a pair of earrings.

It seems lately that pearls are making a comeback in fashion. I recall one stunning look- the little black dress with draping pearls worn by Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's

There is also another famous pearl that was once worn by the royals of Europe and later worn by Elizabeth Taylor- This famous pearl is called Le Paregrina

its famous for is tear drop shape and was recently sold at auction for $11milliom. A pretty pricey piece of jewelry but a gorgeous piece.

Flying high // travel

B Time to Fly Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience. So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada . And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines. I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned and I won’t be booking any trips with them! Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs that should be included , NOT an extra expense. Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees then read this report via BBC. Truthfully people need to tell these companies NO . Even a handbag is next to the list. They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

Sunny Days Eyewear//fashion , designer eyewear

T HE RIGHT ONEs Summer and the sun is something we all look forward to. Getting outside enjoying the sunshine but most important is to to protect your eyes! I have been looking for a new pair of sunglasses. Thinking I might get a pair of design ones, Chanel , Gucci ?? Well more importantly is to get a pair with a higher UV number . Apparently there is no difference from a designer pair or a pair from any shop . Other than the price.style or quality. Looking at and trying sunglasses checking fit is important . The style look and what suits you are all things to consider . The UV protection is what really matters also something I didn’t know was the side part of thin matters also. Why? If to thin UV rays can enter and effect your eyes. So the sides of sun glasse is something else to consider . Enjoy the sunshine ☀️
