Freshwater pearls are one of the most mysterious "gems" a woman can add to her collection, and fashion icons through the ages have selected pearls as their fashion statement. Over 2,000 years ago a Persian princess was buried in a stunning pearl necklace; the royals of Europe routinely encrusted their dresses, veils and gloves with seed pearls, and more recently the catwalk and red carpet have seen pearls return in new and striking ways.
Jackie Kennedy made the pearl choker classic. Famous fashion designer Coco Chanel built an empire on the back of the simple allure of pearls, and the theme has been picked up by one fashion icon after another. Sarah Jessica Parker inspired a whole generation of fashion conscious young women as the fictional character Carrie Bradshaw on the popular series "Sex in the City", sporting multiple ropes of pearls around her neck and wrists.
Women today have a stunning array of designs to choose from when it comes to pearls. From simple strands to long twisted ropes, pearl necklaces can be mixed and matched and layered for a unique look. Bracelets can be chunky or elegant, mixing colors and matching sizes for a distinct effect.
Pearl earrings can range from stunning round or mabe pearls studs to dramatic Moroccan-inspired chandelier drops that add an exotic mystique to any evening gown. Simple sweetheart necklaces adorn sixteen year olds and blushing brides, and pearl rings can serve as a promise of love and hope.
Any fashion icon can turn pearls to their own advantage. The Olsen Twines, Mary Kate and Ashley, often appear at events in matching earrings or bracelets. Musical sensation Lady Gaga glued pearls to her face and body for a red carpet appearance and performance, and A-list actresses like Demi Moore, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Cameron Diaz sport black and white pearls mixed with diamonds on a regular basis.
Select your fashion idol, and imitate their style by pairing freshwater pearl pieces with couture that resembles their party attire for your next night out on the town. You'll be amazed at what a little fashion sense from an icon can do for your own look!
