My Own Chanel Pearl Drop Earrings

08.19.2011 by Leah // 12 Comments

I love customizing my jewelry.   I get my inspirations from celebrities and fashion magazines.

Take these Chanel Pearl Drop Earrings that Kris Aquino was wearing during the eulogy she delivered for her mom in August last year:

I remember being touched by her eulogy and cried alongside her, but I kept my eyes too on her earrings hehe.

The CC-logo in Kris Aquino’s earring was encrusted with swarovskis, and the drop pearl is just a  faux pearl. It’s just so pretty but I would learn later that the hardware comes in silver only.  And I prefer gold.

So I asked my jeweller to make one for me instead, with a smaller CC-logo encrusted with real diamonds and with real freshwater pearls as the drops.    My inspiration is this Chanel earrings being sold online at around P15,000 to P17,000:

Here’s my own version, made of 14k yellow gold:

My CC-logo earrings is removable from the pearl drops so it can be worn two-ways:  as stud CC-logo earrings or one with pearl drops!

And the price?   Very reasonable!  I added only a few thousands to the real thing’s price and I got mine in gold, with real diamonds and pearls.  Yipee!

To My Father By Georgia Harkness A giant pine, ma To My Father
By Georgia Harkness

A giant pine, magnificent and old
Stood staunch against the sky and all around
Shed beauty, grace and power.
Within its fold birds safely reared their young.
The velvet ground beneath was gentle,
and the cooling shade gave cheer to passers by.
Its towering arms a landmark stood, erect and unafraid,
As if to say, “Fear naught from life’s alarms”.
It fell one day.
Where it had dauntless stood was loneliness and void.
But men who passed paid tribute – and said,
“To know this life was good,
It left it’s mark on me. Its work stands fast”.
And so it lives. Such life no bonds can hold –
This giant pine, magnificent and old.

~

To our shelter and safety while he lived, we miss you so much.
Happy 2nd Year in Heaven, Daddy ❤
