Pearls have a timeless, vintage feel to them. I remember I used to salivate after my mum’s champagne pearl necklace and earrings. It enhanced her regal beauty and made her look like a queen. They complement the Indian sari beautifully. Since then pearls have held a special appeal for me. But, when I talk to some of my friends they do not feel as enthusiastic about pearls. They feel it is for an older woman. That is truly not the case; it is how you carry pearls that can make them look very modern and contemporary. You can find stunning pearl jewelry that can make a bold fashion statement and make you stand out from the crowd.
Here are some tips to help create a fashion statement with pearls: 
Use layers of pearls:
Have you ever tried wearing multiple layers of pearls? It looks so trendy and you can team it with just about any outfit — a casual dress or slinky evening wear to look chic. You can also team layers of pearl strands with other necklaces for a fusion effect which will set you apart. This haute look suits almost every person. And remember, pearls don’t only come in white. Play with colored pearls ranging from black to lavender.
Mix and match: 
Pearls are beautifully versatile and lend themselves well with beads, sequins and stones. Pearls set in gold along with diamonds have a classy appeal. 
Layered pearl bracelets: 
Multiple layers of chunky pearls in a bracelet can be your one signature piece of jewelry that can make you look fashionable. Try wearing it with you slinky little black dress. White pearl bracelets go really well with darker dresses and set you apart from the crowd.
Sensational pearl earrings: 
There is something really spectacular about pearl earrings. Simple and sophisticated, they go so well with an evening gown especially when you pull your hair up in a high hairdo. 
Does the image remind you of your mother and grandmother and of course that celebrity on the red carpet? Diamond and pearl earrings look elegant and add an understated appeal to your beauty.
Pearl rings: 
Large pearl rings look gorgeous on fingers. Try them in pearl offset by diamonds set in gold. A simple fashion statement that will make heads turn.
These simple tips can help you create a cutting-edge fashion statement with the versatility of pearls. You can also let your imagination run wild by using pearls in your hair accessories, strands of pearls on your waist or encrusted on your handbag. The possibilities are immense. Pearls fit every budget, mood and style. They complement your wardrobe in truly spectacular ways.

Thanks, Prasad. It is quite lovely.
Oh rachna.. I adore pearls, specially little bit of pearl in gold jewellery..
They add a different dimension.
Even many of the women I know from my generation do not like pearls..
Yes, pretty strange. I’ve always loved pearls.
I love pearls and luckily I have a couple of them. They are elegant and look so pretty.

I love pearls. I’ve quite a few pieces and I treasure them. Nice post, Rachna…. 🙂
Thanks, Maniparna.
I am not crazy about pearls, but I have a thing for them. I have had a pearl necklace or chain at every stage of my life 🙂 Right now, I have 4 pairs of ear rings in pearls and one simple chain that I wear to work. One thing on my wish list to pearls is a Tahitian pearl set 🙂 Did you buy some exciting varieties in Hyd?
I love strings of pearls. They go so well with Indian dresses. I also like pearl chains. Japanese Akoya Pearls and Tahitian pearls are exotic and expensive. I would love to own them. Oh yes, I did buy some in Hyderabad. 🙂
I just love pearls. I didn’t know they are for the old. I have loved wearing them since I was a teenager. Used to borrow from mom’s collection whenever we had big parties. On the contrary, I don’t much like bulky jewellery.
Pearls are versatile and regal. They go well with all kinds of apparel.
Alluring, sensual and capturing write up about pearls. It shows your knowledge and love for it, like the stuffs in lifestyle mags.
Thanks, Vishal. Such pretty pieces.
Pearls are good. Simple & elegant. Nice collection, Rachna. Btw, I was expecting you in one of these for the post. 🙂
They are, Ravish. Sorry to disappoint but I have stopped sharing personal pics on the blog. 🙂 I would have loved to showcase some from my own collection though.
I’m not much of a jewellery person but I do have a thing for (finger) rings and gosh! I don’t know why I don’t a pearl ring, yet. That’s what I’m picking up next; that’s for sure.
Btw, that second piece under mix-and-match is so so gorgeous, Rachna.
I came across so many stunning designs of pearls when I was penning this post. So trendy and gorgeous. You must pick up a pearl ring soon, D. 🙂
It is just that they are not flashy like diamonds. And we tend to go for glitter generally 🙂
Yes, it could be. But they do have their own charm.
Pearls will always remain one of the most key factors in making a fashion statement. And the pictures that are posted here are indeed very lucrative. Great post and nice information.
Thanks, Abhijit. Glad you liked the post and the information.
