For a long time, pearls were considered a badge of respectability, they were a classic piece. Every grandmother, the Queen, princesses and the very elite could be seen wearing them. Now, they are the ‘must have’ piece of accessory, they’ve become synonymous with being cool and chic.
Simple pearl necklaces, earrings or bracelets can be worn virtually anywhere if paired correctly. Pearls are both sincere and romantic. Pearls can be worn at any age, and still look contemporary, when using these simple rules. Their simple yet elegant appearance makes them great accessories at the office, at night and even when running errands. Mix in colored strands of irregular beads or stones in different lengths with your pearls and accessorize both casual and dressy outfits.
At Stylistic, our style ambassadors want you to go against the grain of your usual single-strand necklace and get provocative because pearls can be worn in so many ways and with almost anything.
Here’s our shopping guide to wearing pearls for the modern and fashion forward woman.
•THE WHITE TEE… A NECESSITY
As stated in our earlier blog you can go for the simple and effortless look. A basic white tee paired with strings of pearls can glamify any outfit. If you dare, try a pearl cluster as they are trending in a variety of colors. You may choose to stay away from the traditional cluster and wear a long pearl necklace with an iridescent tassel.
•THE PERFECT MAXI
This season our love for maxi dresses is one on a completely different level. We’re pearling them up! These simple yet cool and elegant dresses can be paired with long strings of pearls around the neck and a cluster of pearls around the arm. Or if you choose, add elongated gradual pearl earrings to your attire. These will add extra flare to your outfit and move you away from traditional stud earrings.
•PEARL BRACELETS
Aren’t we all familiar with the trending “arm candy”? At Stylistic, we want to introduce you to pearl candy. All it takes is several strands of pearls all worn at the same time on the arm or you can choose to twist your necklaces to make a stackable bracelet and pair it with a watch. Another way to have fun and wear your pearls is to try to combine them with other jewelry items.
Before you started reading this blog, we are quite sure that you were only wearing your pearls for the church occasions. By now, we’ve convinced you of their versatility. Put down those basic white or off white pearls and modernize your collection with combination colors such as black and white or sage and taupe. The classic pearl choker has also been reinvented with a straight band and one or two large pearls as a charm.
We know that real pearls can be very expensive, which is why we have a wide variety of fashion jewelry options in the boutique for you to choose from, because at Stylistic, we believe that “Style is a way to say who you are without having to speak.”
