Got no diamonds, got no pearls

Jewelry. All women love jewels. Some of us more than others. It is now time to figure out the wedding jewelry. I would like my jewelry to lift the eyes up(off the butt area) and to the face. Doesn't that sound lovely? Here's the problem, my neck.
The damn thing looks like crepe paper. Then the base is surrounded by rings of creases and then the decolletage is more crepe paper. I should have bought a turtleneck. I have tried the always perfect pearl. It seems matronly. This is a big dilemma as pearls are one of my all time faves. I wear them all the time. They brighten old skin. I have tried lots of combos. Small necklace with big earrings. Small earrings with big necklace. I have tried no necklace. Some earrings vanish into my hair. Where do they go? I have asked friends and family for their opinions. Precious says that's nice to anything and never raises his head. I could have giant watermelons hanging from my ears and I don't think he would notice. Now my daughter, she has her own ideas. She needs the something blue in the something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue vernacular. She thinks a something blue piece of jewelry would be perfect. Who wouldn't???? Sapphires come to mind as do tanzanite, topaz and iolite to name a few gorgeous blue stones. My mother has offered her items, I have offered her items but she has a vision. Together, we are working on this. I can't think of another subject that is so much fun to delve into.
