Second Strand in! More Pics.

[elle_chris]

For the last half hour I've been comparing my 3 strands. This one is just WOW. The luster is very, very nice. You can easily see the difference between this strand and my other two. The price reflects it as well. The more I'm learning about tahitains on here and the other forum, I'm starting to understand what "quality" means. Don't get me wrong, i will take any, ok luster strand (as long as it's green), and love it any day! But there is a large difference in quality between various pearls.
This is not good for my wallet.

I didn't take a ton of pics, too busy admiring them..lol.. but i tried to capture the luster, which was pretty easy, as well as give you guys an idea of the colors I'm seeing in different lighting. Of course I had to add my other round strand in there as well..lol No pics photo shopped except to resize! (I hate photoshopped pictures.)

Seriously, no more posting pics. I'm sure you guys are overdosing by now.. sorry..lol..

last one

 

[elle_chris]

lol.. Swedish. These pearls can not take a bad picture.

I had a problem not using the flash and some came out blurry. I lucked out on these.

 

[that_someone_special]

I just love that last picture!!!

I think you did a great job in showing the colors of the pearls.

 

[elle_chris]

Thanks Swedish. I really tried.. Tahitians are easy to photgraph though!

Wondering what they''re going to look like when the sun''s out (still grey skies, raining on and off here).

a few hours ago I did the DiaDiva and put all 3 strands on. Sat down, got some work done, walked by the mirror and went WOW.

I lied, here's 3 more pics. I know, I know, overkill. But I can't stop

I promise no more posting!

 

[that_someone_special]

No no!!! keep posting!!

I think that wearing 3+ strands together should def be coined "The DiaDiva"

Well, Elle, The DiaDiva looks marvelous on you!

 

[elle_chris]

Thanks Swedish. And I agree, 3+strands should mean the "DiaDiva" look on PS.

Btw, I'm posting PP's pic of the baroque strand. If you look at my second to last pic (the baroques are on top of the other strands), and compare it to their pic, you can see how the colors are spot on. I gotta say, i totally appreciate that about PP. Their pics are a true color. In other words, you get what you see.

Oh Baby, OMG... Absolutely Fabulous.

The two new strands are beautiful and wow, the three together.. They look stunning on you Elle.

Yes, I agree this is the full Dia.

Swedish, what a great new avatar..

 

[gardengloves]

this one, called last one, with the two strands really shows the colors and is my favorite.

 

[elle_chris]

Thanks Garden. I''m wondering if i have the nerve to wear all three to the office.. lol..

In the pic "last one", and one other where i look almost tan, I was trying to get away from all the windows..lol. You can see the light behind me in almost all the pics except those two.

A lady came into our office for an interview last Friday. She had on navy pantsuit, v-neck, wrapped, white blouse and about 7 strands of white pearls (or pearl-wannabe, lol), the Rhianna look, but choker and princess lengths instead of opera lengths. She looked drop-dead gorgeous!!!

Give it a try. Go for two at first. I wore a double strand to huge inter- departmental meeting. Sat there quietly, and let the Tahitians speak. Have yet to wear three, but its coming.

 

[elle_chris]

heheh, I''m sure she did. Pearls can definitely make a person.

it''s lovely!

 

[elle_chris]

Thanks, Maevie.

Garden- Like you, I have no problems with 2 strands. 3.. hmm.. not sure my neck''s long enough. Or, I think I might add a few pearls to the largest strand and make it 19.5 inches. I like the layered look better on me.

 

[gardengloves]

I like the layered look on you too.

 

[cushioncutnut]

yes, YES, YES!!!!!!!! need I say more?? and yes, we want to overdose on pictures...so please, don''t ever feel like we can''t get enough!!

That last picture about did me in!!!!!

 

[elle_chris]

Thanks, CCN!

I''ve become a tahitian addict.

 

[D&T]

WOW!

the layering of all three looks gorgeous on you Elle!! you can DEFINITELY pull it off! the color of your skin tone is Beautiful with those pearls!
