If you met me, I would hope you would think I was a very simple person. I don’t dress up a lot (but I like to look nice) and I don’t do “fancy” when it comes to makeup and jewelry. What I have are staples.

When I dress up I choose between a few necklaces and earrings. I have special pearls I wear for special occasions. I have freshwater pearls I received for my 18th birthday and for our first Christmas, Damon gave me pearl earrings. When I wear them I think of the end of The Hotel Concert chapter in Anne of Green Gables.

“Well, I don’t want to be any one but myself, even if I go uncomforted by diamonds all my life,” declared Anne. “I’m quite content to be Anne of Green Gables, with my string of pearl beads. I know Matthew gave me as much love with them as ever went with Madame the Pink Lady’s jewels.”

You can find a pretty pearl necklace at purepearls.com. I love the pearl pendants and pure hearts collection they offer. I’m also impressed by their prices- heavily discounted and really affordable. When buy any jewelry you should educate yourself on what you are getting, which is why I found their consumer guide to be really helpful.

I’m glad I have a full pearl collection but I know there is room in my jewelry box for even more.
