What are you wearing today?!

Hmmm, I don't have any SS so I can't compare. I think ripples are more metallic (those are the type I go for) while SS are more satiny. But others in the know can make more educated comments. Ripples come in a huge variety of shapes and sizes and colors. Personally, I don't think of them as exchangeable for SS.
I didn't think they were exchangeable either but I do like your explanation. SS pearls do seem more satiny to me and maybe more stark white. I love your white ripples!

Totally different and not even a chance to mistake one for the other.
 
bsomlo, I love those white ripples :love:. Too bad PP only had 3 strands.
 
The story of these ripples reminds me of Goldilocks. The Pearls of Joy white ripples were TOO BIG, the CC white ripples were TOO IVORY, while my PP white ripples are JUST RIGHT in every way! (Don't get me wrong, the P of J white ripples were incredible at 17 mm -- just too heavy for me to wear, and the CC ripples were lovely -- but I'm not into ivory/peach since it blends with my skin. Both necklaces went to a very loving home and look smashing on their new owner.) All's well that ends well!
 
Thanks for sharing your white ripples and souffle earrings! They are both beautiful. I don't see the "ripple" effect in these compared to colored ripples - is it just me?
 
bsomlo Love those white ripples :love: :love: :love: and love how you paired them with your new souffle earrings ~ tres chic!

:lol: I love your Goldilocks reference, and they really do look "just right".

Sounds so adorable. Glad you found the right one.
 
A little blurry but you can see the colors: blue, lavender and green souffle.

Ditto - the shape is so unique. Have you decided if you're going to keep the other soufflés yet?

Thanks. I am keeping 2 pendants and returning the loose one.
 
Wearing my Black Friday Tahitian/keshi strand (just love the silver/lavender/blue keshi) with my Black Friday souffle earrings:

Just lovely bsomlo! Those earrings will go with just about anything won't they :twirl: I bet they would be gorgeous with your lavender triple strand! Love how you have been mixing up your pearls :geek:

HHPmom your enhancer looks beautiful! Looking forward to lots of photos!
 
HHPmom - I am in love with that souffle and the setting! The two go perfectly together! bsomlo - Great combination!
 
Double souffle necklace and new souffle earrings:



And don't they look like molten silver in this silly selfie?! (Only other pearl peeps would relate to taking a picture like this in a vehicle!)

Very happy wearing my freshadama pearl strand with my favorite purple overcoat! I am in love!! :love: :love:
These look so lovely on you!!!
 
Ah, and I am *not* wearing pearls today - I figured I wouldn't need anything with a crew neck top and scarf, but looking at these amazing pictures makes me feel like something is missing!
 
Some days a girl just needs a strand of little black pearls. 8mm drop Kamoka Tahitians by way of Kojima Pearl with my 9mm drop Kamoka earrings, purchased directly from the farmer.

Fly Girl -- Fantastic!
 
bsomlo - I love when you "double your fun" with your souffles! Very much a statement in pearls!

Fly Girl - Your Kamokas are dreamy!
 
Sorry if this looks blurry , I'd get the wrist in focus and the pendant would go out of focus. Ah well, a soufflé and some bracelets.

Fly Girl, those are fantastic. The contrast with your hair makes them pop.

Very nice. We really can see the beauty of the pearls better in these shots than the other day.
Are these selfies? I always get blurry selfie.
