Beautiful Pearl necklace

Wow, I really went on a shopping spree today at the Bay's cosmetics and fragrances Gala.  My favorite and biggest purchase was this one beautiful pearl necklace.


The only reason I looked in that section was because the gold jewelery was 60% off.   The only thing that caught my eye in that area was this pearl necklace.   I was quizzing the sales associate who was helping me, on details of the quality of the necklace.   Turns out the sales associate was clueless.  Not blaming her - I don't think it was her area.  She was only there because it was super busy.  She would go back and forth asking the subject matter expert my questions.  Actually she wouldn't have had to go back and forth so many times if she listened to me and asked the right question.  I kept on paraphrasing the question over and over.  I did end up learning a bit more about pearls by doing so.

It turns out the majority of the cost of the necklace is for the gold and diamonds.  It is very small detail for a pretty penny if paying full price.  I was mainly interested in the pearls, not the minor detail which drove the price up.  I decided to purchase it anyhow.   It is so elegant and classy!   Perfect for me!

The reason why I was interested in looking at pearls is because I recently found out that it will increase my luck....or may be more like reduce any bad luck.   This is for my particular birth chart according to indian astrology so I  wouldn't recommend you follow in my footsteps here.   A family member of mine has a strong interest in Indian astrology, and he was the one that  gave me that piece of advice.   This is not the fake fun astrology we are used to in the western world.   This is real ancient science that's involved.  But enough about that.

I find it funny that I was never interested in pearls when I was younger.  I used to think it was for old people.  Betsey Johnson actually helped me drop that false belief with some of her fun pearl necklaces.  I actually bought a couple of them, but I'm thinking those are artificial.   I will have to ask next time.

I can't wait to wear it!
