Upscale styling careens into the casual combination of natural stone and freshwater pearl in this womanly expression of love for "all things fair and fancy." This necklace encircles the face like a murmuring mauve halo, while casting beams of light from faceted crystal in every direction. Dare I mention the tepid tyranny of the tawny freshwater pearls? Each of the taunting 17 inches of this necklace hugs snugly, as if gracing the neck of Greta Garbo in Camille (haven't seen it? no-no-no!), and the earrings are 2 1/8 inches of maddening mauve demureness.

Is your style a contradiction of dirt and diamonds? I applaud you! Wear this to the ball or wear it camping. Sparkling silver and patinaed pewter will be your metallic accompaniment, but they are mere vehicles for the beauty they support. Bon Voyage!

(Should you feel more a queen than a princess, I can lengthen the necklace for you, adding dashing stones for the price of the stones alone.) You are so beautiful!
