Pearls are a timeless accessory. They’re chic, glamorous and understated. Wear them with casual clothes or to a wedding – they are suitable for every occasion.
Previously on our blog, we have covered the different types of pearls, but today we are looking at how to style them.
Pearls have been used in jewellery for centuries and are known as the “queen of gems”. They’re effortlessly fabulous and are celebrated for their beautiful lustre.
But how do we wear them and not look like our grandma? Below are some styling tips for wearing pearls in a modern and classy way.
Layering
Whether you’re stacking necklaces, rings or earrings, layering is the way to take your jewellery looks into the 21st century.
Layer pearl necklaces with other pendants to bring a youthful edge. Experiment by wearing one of our gold Heart, Medallion or Dog Tag pendants next to the Pearl Drop Pendant.
You can also layer up your look with our earring charms. Slide the Freshwater Pearl Earring Charms in Yellow Gold onto a pair of our 11mm Huggie Earrings for a fun and flirty look.
If you have more than one ear piercing try wearing a pearl stud behind a chunky hoop.
Embrace the unusual
At My Adornments, we have a number of unusually shaped baroque pearl items. Baroque pearls are non-spherical and are a great choice if you want to stand out from the crowd.
Take a look at our Baroque Pearl Diamond Pavé Pendant and Baroque Pearl and Diamond Earrings. These glamorous pieces feature unique pearls that remind us of the deep ocean. Pair with a dress for an eye-catching evening look.
Chunky baroque pearls not your thing? Try our Keshi Pearl Charm Necklace. Five pearls drop from a delicate solid gold chain, creating a twist on the classic pearl necklace design. The small lustrous gems dangle on your collarbone like raindrops rather than being threaded next to each other in a traditional style.
Keep it simple
Sometimes it can be just as refreshing to keep it simple. Pearls make a beautiful subtle accessory and are a perfect everyday staple. We have pearl studs in a smaller 3mm size and a 5mm size. These simple earrings are chic and classy, perfect for pairing with jeans and a t-shirt.
