Adding a new piece of jewelry to your collection can be such a treat. If you are like many of us, the process of choosing each new and beautiful necklace, bracelet and ring is both fun and intensely rewarding, especially when you have a special occasion or outfit in mind. If you know that your wardrobe really requires a new statement piece but you are having a hard time choosing the perfect addition, you aren’t alone! There are so many options out there that it can feel impossible to wade through them all to decide on the best way to spend your hard-earned money. At the end of the day, the perfect necklace is going to be the one you choose yourself. Here, let’s go over some of the ways that you can wear a real pearl necklace so that you can decide if it’s an appropriate addition to your style.
If you haven’t considered pearls before, it’s probably because you can’t help but think of your grandmother. Luckily for all of us, though, pearls have really evolved; now, anyone can wear pearls and still feel young and contemporary. As an evening look, pearls look great as a big and bold statement. When you are wearing an evening gown or cocktail dress, pearls can add that touch of glamour and sophistication wherever they are worn. On a sleeveless dress, pairing your real pearl necklace with a bracelet is going to look wonderfully regal and elegant, while a pair of dangly earrings with a swept up-do is going to draw the eye. Long necklaces can be doubled up or knotted for a beautiful, bold look.
For more casual events, you can mix and match a pearl necklace, earrings or bracelet with other jewelry or wear them by themselves. If you are at work, less is more; you can count on pearl jewelry to give you that bit of polish without needing to wear more than one piece at a time. When you are out and about, though, you can have fun combining pearls with other shinier jewelry, like gold and crystal. By mixing your statement pieces with more discrete jewelry, putting it together with jeans and blazers and doubling up, you can enjoy creating a signature style that is all your own. You might just find that pearl is your new favorite kind of jewelry!
