Pearly

I know, I have not been around much lately. I was feeling under the weather all weekend, and Monday finally drive myself to the doctor and discovered I have strep throat, again. And the good news, the ear nose and throat specialist I saw over the summer told me I needed to get it four or five times a year to qualify to have my tonsils removed, and this has now been twice for months. I am pretty sure to meet that quota! Not that I want a tonsillectomy, but I would like it to at least be an option for me to consider.

Anyways, I have been on antibiotics for two days now, and then feeling mostly myself again. Today I am wearing a brown sweater dress from Winners, black sweater leggings, my new awesome boots, pearl earrings and a pearl necklace. Has anybody noticed that pearls are back in style!? I never would have thought I would like the look of pearl studs in my ears, but a few months ago I was sitting next to someone in a meeting and she was young and stylish and wearing large pearl studs, and I thought it looked really pretty. I decided to try it with a cheap pair I bought at the drugstore, and really liked it. Within a few weeks of that, I noticed that it was actually becoming quite popular. I had thought that girl was the trendsetter, and I was early to the trend, but I quickly realized I was probably late to it! Anyways, I am happy to discover I like pearl earrings, because they leave my ears simple and my neck free for the big necklaces! I don’t really like the look of big earrings with big necklaces, except for evening wear, so I’m happy to have some small simple earrings now.20111130-083839.jpg
