Every one of us need a full-proof necklace that can be worn out on any important occasions that requires us to dress up. And most importantly, it must be able to match evening dresses of every color. That was basically my critirea when I made this.
I was bored of my usual pearls hubby bought for me frm India. Although I love them, they are a bit of a bore to me already and also, I find that those pearls matches best with my cheongsam and non other than that.
Thus, I made this sometime last year when I had a wedding dinner to attend. I had already a couple of earrings using the same crystal combinations that I can match with thus, I only need to make the necklace. I was wearing a black and white low-cut halter top and it was perfect for sparkly crystals. I was pretty happy about the outcome. I used chains for the ends so that I can adjust the length whenever I want to, which is great as I can even wear them as a choker when the dress calls for it. Its still my favourite and I would wear them on special occasions.
Initially, I started off doing this. But......it seems somewhat too grand and thus my inspiration snapped....and I didn't know what to do next. So I scrapped the Idea. Teehee....Its still pretty though.....well, untill inspiration hit me again.....I'd just leave this as it is.Cheerios!! I'm going to bed. yawwwn.....

Yeah I love those all-occasion thingeys, saves the stress of having to decide which goes with what. But then, right now, I'm having a blast with all different colors of pearls LOL and I'm lovin' it. How ah?
i think pearls will go nicely with formal wear as well :) be with pair with slacks or skirts
or dresses LOL
too much of Sex & the City >_<
i <33 the necklace!!! =) i just want to ask, did you know any place sell clothes that are fashionable yet it`s plus size? i`m not that big but i just can`t fit in small size clothes & i think i`m ready for a change because all this while, all i wore is t-shirt & it`s getting boring. i need some spicing up! lol. i know there`s a place in one utama because i read it in a mag but since i`m not from kl, can you recommend a few places? i`m going to kl around disember..so yeah. thanks soooooo muchhhhh!!

eldie: no spam pls
sharon: it does look elegant....but i just got bored of it
anonymous: comming to to KL december?!! yey! you would be trilled because there will be sales n sales n more sales!! where r u frm? erm...I'm not very familiar with plus sizes clothes ....but...1Utama is a good place to go. Mrs.Reads is the most famous place for plus size and chic clothings. You can also go to this shop called FYI...ermm...but i dont know exactly which floor. Send me an email if you really want to know the location.
Also, Jusco have a wide selection of clothes, Agenda is a label that caters for the plus sizes and they have nice and affordable range of working wears.. er...as about shoes....hmmmmmm....i really dont know if size9-10 is common. But just stroll along 1U and you'd find some gems. Jusco itself has quite a selection. Else, you can go to Voir, Nose, Blay(i love blay),Vincci is pretty popular although I havent bought a pair of vincci since couple of yrs now...(too common n doesnt lasts)....Hope this helps...if u need more info just lemme know.
Maybe I'm old fashioned, or too simplistic, or just out of touch; I still find a silk 'choker' around a girl's neck very attractive.
True about how Vincci shoes don't last. They look nice but their heels are horrible, as in the quality!
