If diamonds are a girl’s best friend, then pearls are a girl’s soulmate.
From an oyster in the deep blue sea, to becoming an elegant accessory that can be laced around your neck or wrist and add a pop to your ears, pearls have been worn since the beginning of time. Thousands of years later, well known people such as Audrey Hepburn, Jacqueline Kennedy, Michelle Obama, and Sarah Jessica Parker are continuing to elevate their looks from simple to sophisticated with the addition of pearls. While pearls have been around for generations, is there one pearl that takes the cake? La Peregrina is considered the world’s most famous pearl with a pear-shaped pearl the size of a small egg (https://www.thepearlsource.com). Safe to say we will not make any omelets with this precious pearl!
Not only are the older generations continuing to rock the pearl look, but the younger generations are beginning to claim it as their own, too! It is to no surprise that older trends are resurfacing, so it was bound for pearls to make their way to the top. Young artists and celebrities like Dua Lipa, Harry Styles, and Gigi Hadid, have begun embracing pearls as part of their everyday looks, causing a resurgence in the popularity of pearls. Former Atlanta Braves player, Joc Pederson, even wore a pearl necklace throughout the 2021 World Series. Fans enjoyed this new take on how pearls were styled and they began wearing pearl necklaces following the World Series games. Younger generations are starting to view pearls as trendy and playful instead of preppy.
