Oh! Oh, this is lovely! The second one sounds like the conversations I've had with my friend Holly. "I didn't wear dry-clean-only for three solid years. Can you live without cashmere?" LOL. Holly had an even graver warning for me: kids love to grab necklaces. And I quote: "Believe me, I've had to restring my pearls twice.") Like Jared, I think I can deal. &hearts
