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.

Spring style// fashion

Comfort and Simple Well last month was a  bit unsettled weather/wise I still needed to wear a coat in the mornings . Chance of rain , wind as the saying goes. April showers bring May flowers .t Naturally when the weather is unsettled a decent jacket coat is needed.  My one favorite is a trench coat.  The basic trench coat is also stylish.  A very classic style.  I wear it often in spring over a casual top , slacks and flat leather shoes .  Or a nice tweed skirt and knit top Simple but comfortable .   What your go to outfit for spring?
