A uniform or graduated strand of round pearls is the classic pearl look. They, or freshwater pearls, may also be strung with colored gemstones or beads. Long single strands of white or cream pearls may be twisted with pearls that have been treated to achieve a variâ€" ety of colors such as peach, lavender, pink, black or grey. No two pearls are exactly alike. They are found in a range of qualities and are judged by their lustre, surface appearance, size, shape, color and nacre thickness. The soft lustre and shifting subtle colors of pearls give them a unique quality. and cut. According to Bob Richardson, proprietor of the ‘Bobâ€"Râ€"Shop‘ in a retail plaza at Upper Middle Road and Queensbury Crescent (between Trafalgar Road and Sixth Line), cuts today are reflecting the personal prefâ€" erences of the individual.

"The Guild was established 25 years ago, when a group of hairâ€" dressers got together to share ideas. "Hair is all over the place styleâ€" wise, but coloring has become very aggressive. It‘s done in an almost obvious way, in very strong interpreâ€" tations. The blondes are very blond, and you see a lot of black instead of the soft browns that everyone was into."

Jennifer Myrans had given up trying to find comfortable nightwear for little Elyse, so, the former drapery designer started playing around, using a sweatâ€" shirt as a pattern guide. "Before I ‘went commercial,‘ my friends were asking me to make them for their children, and then I was hearing stories about the kids not wanting to take them off," Myrans says. The name "Jenny‘s Jammies," interâ€" estingly enough, was suggested by renowned entrepreneur Alex Tilley, founder of Tilley‘s Endurables.

Our goal now is to unite the industry in a nonâ€"threatening, nonâ€"partisan environment, to encourage profesâ€" sional respect," says the softâ€"spoken Britishâ€"born stylist. Through the Guild, Bob has parâ€" ticipated in numerous fashion shows. This year, he is fashion director for the Guild executive, and as such, coâ€" ordinated a show in February featurâ€" ing 350 hairdressers, held at the Park Plaza Hotel in Toronto. He is currentâ€" ly working on plans for the next masâ€" sive undertaking in October. Back from a recent trip to London, Bob noted a number of fashion trends, in addition to one major change to how many women are preâ€" senting themselves: hair color. was warmly welcomed when she sought the charismatic independent retailer‘s advice before starting out. In order to minimize overhead, Jenny‘s Jammies are available throughâ€" out the province via direct mail only. They‘re manufactured right here in Oakville, and come in the cheerful shades of butter yellow, lime sherbet, soft blue, bright pink, vibrant orange, lavender lilac, happy turquoise and in plaids (on request). Myrans is currently manufacturing the garments in sizes to fit most children up to age three, although she plans to expand her line and sizes as the company expands. There are ‘feet‘ in the sizes up to one year old. "He was extremely enthusiastic about my ideas," she recalls. The flannelette used in Jenny‘s Jammies is not sprayed with chemical flame retardant, but has passed safety testing by the Retail=Research Laboratories of Canada. The patterns are sized to account for fabric shrinkage after washing. Born and raised in Oakville, Myrans has again taken up residence here, after a 20â€"year absence. She has lived in many parts of the world, but is happy to be ‘back to basics,‘ raising a family and growing her new business. Myrans is also mailing out introducâ€" tory coupons, which should arrive in Oakville homes in September. Pearls are not radiant, but wearing them imparts radiance. They wrap neck, shoulders and face in a soft halo, making complexions come alive. Caring for your pearls Cultured pearls are precious jewels that should be treated gently. Always store them separately from other jewelry, wrapped in cloth or tissue or placed in a little pouch. To protect their lustre, never let your pearls come in contact with cosmetics, hairsprays and perâ€" fumes. It‘s best to put your pearls on last. After each wearing, they should be wiped with a soft cloth to remove dirt and perspiration. Pearls may be washed in mild soap and water, then rinsed and allowed to air dry naturally.

"It‘s not a ‘60s heavy with masâ€" cara and false eyelashes; it‘s more of a late ‘70s, early 80s kind of look, with very dramatic makeâ€"up to the outer corners of the eye," he elaboâ€" rates. Bob feels that hairstyle trends have broadened so as not to limit the majority, who aren‘t necessarily flatâ€" tered by such trendy looks as the short cropped ‘waif‘ look that has garnered so much attention in recent years. And you‘re only as old as you dress, he points out. "With fashions, makeâ€"up and hair, age doesn‘t have to dictate your look. There really aren‘t any rules any more." Hair is a lot of fun, he believes, because unlike cosmetic surgery, tattooed makeâ€"up and other modern style decisions, it‘s not "permanent" (pardon the pun).

It is a good idea to bring your pearls to your professional jeweler for restringing about every year or so.
