a v-neck empire waist with beading right underneath the bust
Is the beading glass beads? Can you go to a bead store and find reasonable matches? You can make your own!
For that dress, I would suggest black shiny beads, or silver, or a dark shade of translucent purple. Probably anything with red in it would be too matchy-matchy with the dress. Other matching ideas are to match the necklace to any flowers they hold/wear, except where bridesmaids always seem to have pink flowers, and pink is so problematic for so many skintones.
No, Perk. Mine are thicker under the neck.
There may be some issues about the quality of the memory foam, but I didn't comparison shop when I bought mine, since they were the only ones I could find.
And I second you on the pearl colouring. They're still pretty! They're just not monochromatic.

I found that all the "negative" stereotypes of generation X were actually positive (like, brusque and focussed on the bottom line)
We are? I mean, okay, I'm brusque with the best of 'em, but... we are? And here I've been trying to live up to the slacker ideal in spite of my native type-A-ness.
(And is it just me, or is there a wee titch of gender weirdness in those go-getter Xers and earthy nurturing mommy boomers?)

Eee! I'm totally entering that EVERY DAY.
I find black pearls (real ones) are almost never monochromatic. I mean, the jewelers sort them by color, gray or pink or green tone, but when I see them on people, they seem to shift with the light and be all, you know, pearlescent.
The appeal to slips is not that they match skin or clothing, but that they provide another layer of barrier between the world's eyes and your butt. I think it's perfectly OK to look at a see-through skirt and see a slip; but to look through a see-through skirt and see underpants is less savory.

probably not for the perverts.
How about this one, Maria? [link]
I am a convert to the idea of a set, because it's one less thing to worry about (coordinating earrings).
