Latest Lust Must: Pearl Necklace

7 December 2007 5 Comments

I want to buy a pearl necklace. NO, I need to buy a Akoya pearl necklace. After catching a glimpse of Akoya pearls, I simply cannot even look at my freshwater pearls anymore. :(

I don’t even know where in Singapore I can get good quality Akoya pearls, and I really don’t want to get jewellery online when I have not felt and tried on the item. A little weird, I know. Jewellery to me, unlike clothing and accessories, are so intimately personal..

I have heard of Mikimoto in Singapore and a quick search online shows that they are located in Tanglin Shopping Centre. Maybe I will drop by and take a look tomorrow..

Any ideas?

So the only pearl necklace that I will wear now is this one my mother gave me:


Keshi Pearls

I am dreaming of white pearls with silver or pink/ silver overtones..

and black Tahitian pearls.

Funny thing is, I used to really dig South Sea Pearls, especially the baroque ones, (hahaha, very Mrs Flintstone!!) but now I think they are not really me. Somehow I prefer the understated, elegant look these days. Growing older and mellower? :P

PS: This is NOT a paid post or advertorial post in case you are wondering. You will know it if or when I do paid posts or advertorials. It wil always be openly declared. That is also part of my own perceived blogger integrity. :)

    Last year when i was searching for Akoya pearls, I almost wanted to get it from this seller auction seller online but decided not to in the end. I later bought mine (not Akoya of course) from Far East Plaza. They have a good range of imported Japan pearls and you will get a good deal if you search around…will update u on the shop name again when I get home. =)
