One of the staple items for any advanced style fashionista is a great pearl necklace.

I was crossing the street on my way to the subway when I noticed the most striking white hair on a lady far ahead. I knew I had to approach her, so I hurried past my subway stop to ask if I could take her photograph. When she turned around I instantly recognized her as the gorgeous model Carmen Dell’Orefice. I have always wanted to take Carmen’s photo so I was so excited when she stopped for a moment. She was just coming back from grocery shopping, looking as gorgeous as ever.
