Update the classic look of pearl earrings
Pearls evoke timeless beauty, but that doesn't mean you can't choose ones with a hint of modern aesthetic. You can even choose a custom engagement ring with accents of pearls! Whether you want to dress them up or incorporate them into your everyday attire, pearls are versatile and beautiful.
How to choose pearls
When choosing pearls, you'll want to pay close attention to the color. Additionally, the color you choose should complement your skin tone. The color of the actual pearls is the wearer's preference, but first-time buyers should consider white pearls for their classic appeal. If you have an olive or darker skin tone, golden and cream pearls are particularly lovely options, while people with fairer complexions will look great in rosy hues.
Pearls come in all different design styles, so once you've chosen the color you want, you'll have to decide how you would like to wear them. Pendants with pearls are modern and sophisticated, and many people don't even consider wearing pearls with this style. And although long pendants are modern, they can be worn during the evening and with classic attire.
Pearls and diamonds
While some people may think you can only wear one or the other, pearls and diamonds complement each other perfectly. Don't be afraid to incorporate both into your outfits! If you are going for a night out on the town, to a wedding or any other special occasion, incorporate true class with pearls and diamonds.
When making this decision, consider the proportions of the diamond cut and the pearl, as you don't want to go overboard. Either pick jewelry that contain both or stick to simple pieces that feature either. Wearing an ornately designed diamond necklace with two glamorous pearl bracelets could make your look a bit overwhelming.
Non-traditional style
Pearl earrings can have plenty of personality, or they can be straightforward and simple. If you are looking for a pair with a bit more character than a simple post, consider the Pearls No. 2 by the Brian Gavin team. These earrings feature an elegant design with paved diamonds and an intricately twisted flower behind the pearls. You'll get the classic look of pearls along with the brilliant sparkle of diamonds.
The Pearls No. 4 earrings are another option that features a modern spin on the traditional post. These earrings are backed with a circle of diamonds, so you can get the best of both worlds: diamonds and pearls!
