The pearl is not only my birthstone (June--one of June's two birthstones) it's also just one of my favorite jewelry stones overall. While a lot of pearl jewelry can look very formal, I like that this is a very casual looking bracelet, fancy enough, but not too formal either.

As described, a lot of the pearls are "potato" shaped, meaning elongated, or oval as opposed to perfectly round. This doesn't bother me, I think it helps add to the bulk of this bracelet. The crystal beads add a nice touch of "bling" and catch light in a pretty way, though the pitch blank string this bracelet is strung on might seem harsh to some. Again, it's a casual look in my opinion, especially for a pearl piece.

The title confuses me a bit, as it seems to say this bracelet is 7.5" and comes with a 1" extender. If that's what they mean, I'm disappointed to report that my bracelet did not arrive with an extender. It still fits, but I wouldn't have liked the extender to go with it.

It came nicely packaged, in a navy blue box with a matching blue pouch to hold the bracelet in. Overall, I'm pretty happy with this bracelet, I think it's a pretty piece and seems high quality and very versatile as far as what I'd wear it with.
