I, the difficult child, then still living at home, under
parental rules and bylaws, had saved enough money over a year’s work in an
advertising firm. Single and always
ready to mingle I made the decision to spend all my savings with an equally
naughty friend, for a mischievous 3 day trip to Hong Kong. Judging the situation, my clever mommy took
me shopping and I ended up buying my first long double string of pearls, with a
diamond and ruby clasp. Resulting in an
empty bank account, the Hong Kong trip never materialized, and the poor Etonian
left without a racy weekend partner, simply disappeared from my life. The pearl necklace, stayed the test of time
and forever adorned my décolletage. My
mother had won the game and I developed cognitive memory association with
pearls and pleasure.
From expensive Mikimotos to Harry Winston’s finest pearls,
it has enhanced my days of jeans and a
T-shirt ensemble for an expensive look or go naked with a strand or two to
complete the wild night.
The latest acquisition, a present, does the trick for both classic
and wild. These giant Baroque Polynesian Pearl, glean in the moonlight with
golden hues.

behind this clever Polynesian collection of Pacific Pearls. In fact this entrepreneurial spirit came from
a father and son team. The father a
globe trotting CEO perfect in his knowledge of branding; combining with his son,

It takes a man’s eye, a touch of sensuality to perfect beauty.
