Sparkle

Add some diamonds in a fancy setting with a drop pearl on the end and you have an accessory fit for any elegant soiree.

Vintage Twist

For those traditional brides out there who want something a little bit different, try the vintage route. Pick out a pair of earrings with a cream or rose colored pearl for a softer look. You can also find something like this one to the left that has a iridescent gemstone in a vintage type of setting like heavy metals and emerald cut styles of stones.

Tahitian Beauty

Many brides nowadays are looking for some modern sophistication on their wedding day. Tahitian pearls are the perfect choice for this style celebration. A black Tahitian pearl in a sleek setting like this pair of earrings, is a great choice for the modern bride. The dark pearl will stand out against a beautiful white gown and the simple yet angular setting gives you that sophisticated modern look.

When you go out shopping for holiday accessories, try to find something that you can wear with every outfit you will wear during the season. A great flexible option is pearls. There are two different types of pearls you can pair with just about anything – white Akoya pearls and black Tahitian pearls. They are both neutral enough to wear with just about any color or style.

White Pearl Necklace

Find a simple white Akoya pearl necklace like the one to the left for an accessory you can wear with anything. The beautiful white color will complement any color you don this holiday season. You can opt for the double strand look, or the more traditional single strand. Another option is to find a strand that is extra long so you can either wear it long or double it around your neck for an instant change. Purchasing a necklace like this allows you to get a lot of mileage out of it. It will always look like a different necklace when you wear it with different outfits.

Black Tahitian Pearl

Another great option for flexible holiday wear is the black Tahitian pearl. Like white, the black color will pair well with almost any color and outfit. The black Tahitian pearls definitely gives you a more bold, sophisticated look. They are perfect for the holiday season and you can easily transition them between a red party dress and black pants with a white blouse for the office party. You can choose a long strand option like the white akoya pearls and then wear the pearls two different ways. Not only will these pearls be a great flex option for all of your holiday outfits but you can wear them year round.

Black and White

If you can’t decide between black pearls and white pearls, why not go for an accessory that has both!? This one shown to the left is a great example of how you can mix beautiful white Akoya pearls with sleek black Tahitian pearls. This is a fun and funky accessory but can compliment just about any outfit too. The black and white colors remain neutral enough to pair with red, purple, burgandy, green….just about anything. Mixing the black and white pearls together in the same necklace give the piece a lot of interest and you can be sure everyone will be asking about your great jewelry!
