Often when browsing online for pearl jewellery, to keep up with the latest trends, I discover that many Julleen Pearl Jewllery Designs are well an truly out there ,being viewed, by lots of other browsers and shoppers. Am happy to see Julleen designs really stand out against others that are visible to the general public, whilst most others are positively boring. I did happen to stumble across this one… which I’d like to share and think it’s definitely worth a read. The website, called jewelinfo4u discusses a few varieties of pearls. Enjoy! http://www.jewelinfo4u.com/freshwater_pearl_varieties.aspx#sthash.2Ui1CSyf.sXPZ8P5d.dpbs
I don’t know about you but I love looking at the outfits worn by the women on the Red Carpet. Of course last night was our night of nights for Australian TV – our Annual Logies! I have a few hot faves and thought Jessica Marias and Asher Keddie looked fantastic. So original and at least they dare to be unique.
I have personally great fun finding products that will accessorize a particular colour. Today I’ve chosen Mint green. I make lots of pearl jewellery with silver and gemstones in this gorgeous pastel colour. Hope you enjoy the images presented below .
Wow..I don’t think I’ve seen anyone do yellow like our Duchess of Cambridge – Kate. I thought it couldn’t get any better for the pearl jewellery industry (I’ve always got my eye out on women wearing pearls) until..I saw the the white Zimmerman dress with Kate wearing pearls again. To top the whole thing off… we see a blissfully happy photo of the much adored royal couple ..at a sporting venue in Australian where again Kate wears a pearl stud earring..looking very much like our Julleen Pearl Stud 11 mm Earring. Had to share this as I am thrilled to prove by the variety below how a pearl earring can go with just about an occasion and any outfit. Am I wrong?

Squidoo used to be a great site for those of us who had a lot to say about their particular love or pet hate. I wrote a really good article…actually several good articles… and Squiddo has blocked nearly all of them. This latest one was called Pearls and Politics and I changed the title yesterday.. to “Girl Power and Pearls” and edited it further (they love you to do that regularly..or they used to) to bring it up to speed…what was once a wonderful blog site for writers who seriously tried to achieve good articles….is now a very restricted blogging site and being seriously edited. Free speech is seemingly barred! Who’s to say what is worth publishing and what is to be banished from public viewing….they do!…because it’s their site. Right or wrong…my article has vanished.
Just to clear up a few things. Some of the bits in the Lens were outdated…like Princess Catherine being pregnant…we of course know she is coming “down under” with little George…she is no longer in the family way….and so I updated that…I really thought I had streamlined it and made it current.
I chatted about women in politics who wore pearls to give their images a boost..and how wearing pearls or pearl jewellery really gave female pollies a much needed boost of CRED! Damn it!…and now all my words are lost in cyber space …and the excuse Squidoo gave to block my publishing of my Lens.. was it was not complete… that it was still in the editing mode. huh? ..how come they published it before….then decided to reverse that….It used to be “public” and now it has been blocked totally from view. They don’t want your Lenses (their word for articles) to be copied or plagiarized (like I would even need to COPY..I can write my own articles thanks..)…or for a Lens to be too ….shall we say…. commercial….so I took all my product links off and added a few Amazon links to PEARL related books (they love that too) and they say….it looks suspiciously like I contravened some sort of generic guidelines. I was not to be …too commercial…okay I get that…but other Lenses are in fact very commercial….and they lead to their own online stores. Squidoo in my opinion are not specific enough as to where we made the boo boos….and so we never KNOW what we’ve mistakenly done…to upset their Squidoo team. The links I added in my Lens …lead to this blog….and to my Pinterest board…called “Pearls and Politics”(and not linked directly to my goods online or my E Shops) Phew! So I’ve bowed and cow towed…and still no article! to be seen.
So much for original content which took me a while to create and edit… and so much for entertaining articles …which may or may not be enjoyable reading for others.
Blue always is a popular fashion colour and this year it’s a marine, electric or very bold rich blue, that everyone can’t get enough of. I love it..so no complaints here. In relation to jewellery..there are but a very few more popular gemstones than Lapis Lazuli. If there is ever a stone that most people just “have to have” it’s a piece in beautiful blue lapis . Along with other gemstone, blue topaz and blue agate and we can’t forget blue Sapphires, Lapis really activates the senses because of it’s stunningly rich vibrancy of tone and texture.. it’s almost intoxicating.

Ahhh! Lapis Lazuli with it’s tiny veins of gold or deeper blue or even white contrasting speckles, is what makes this stone a real winner. It’s difficult to create designs that will suit everyone but I think we have here in our delicious collection of jewellery with a touch of Blue Lapis and down right opulence of the brilliant Lapis and Pearl cuff bracelet. Whatever your mood Lapis will most assuredly give you a huge lift in lightness of being. No wonder the Egyptians were mad for it. Take a look at our humble and not so humble uses in jewellery with this remarkable and beloved stone. Enjoy!

After a stunning Christmas and New year at Mariko Boutiques in South Perth, Julleen Pearl Jewellery has introduced a fresh range for 2014. Some very unique creations in long pearl necklaces are being launched on Saturday and some very interesting designs were placed in the boutiques just last week and there are more to come. Our jewellery moves quickly at Mariko so best be the first IN line for some gorgeous “ONE OF” pieces in good quality pearls that will last the distance. I’ve been making some great new designs and also a few repeats ( that have been re -requested). This is our 14th year at the Mariko boutiques and it never ceases to amaze me how much their customers love Julleen Pearl Designs and I’m so pleased they keep coming right back, for more.
Thank goodness some of us are chopping off those dreary and tired looking long hair styles and opting for short hair. What is wonderful about short hair is, it accentuates the face and makes you look awake , smart and sharp and dare I say…younger. Summer time is the best to go for it….as it makes us feel so much cooler. I am all for it.. as I just chopped off all my locks and am loving my new look. And what’s more, my pearl earrings look spectacular! What I love, as a jewellery designer, is how stunning long earrings look with cropped hair… just amazing!
I saw Jennifer Lawrence on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart recently (what a scream she is…and I just love that show btw). Apparently so many people were alarmed at Jennifer (who stars in the Hunger Games – Catching Fire) who had recently chopped off her long straggly locks …it was actually trending on twitter! Shock Horror…a girl… “game” enough (sorry about that) to wear a short hair do.

Here I show some magic cuts that appeal to me. And look out for woman wearing long dangling earrings with these short cuts. Love it.
