How to Style Pearl Jewelry: The Best Ways to Wear Pearls in 2024

The Versatility of Pearls

One of the most compelling reasons to invest in pearl jewelry is its versatility. Pearls can seamlessly transition from casual to formal wear, making them a valuable addition to any wardrobe.

• Everyday Wear: Pair a simple pearl necklace or earrings with a classic white shirt and jeans for a chic, effortless look.
• Formal Events: Opt for a more elaborate pearl piece, such as a multi-strand necklace or a pearl and diamond ring, to add a touch of luxury to your evening attire.

Styling Tips for Pearl Jewelry

Mixing with Other Jewelry

One of the best ways to make your pearl jewelry stand out is to mix it with other types of jewelry:

• Diamonds and Colored Gemstones: Pair your pearls with diamonds or colored gemstones to add a pop of color and extra sparkle to your outfit. For example, designs featuring a mix of diamonds and pearls, like David Morris’s ‘Fortuna’ mother-of-pearl ring, amplify the opulence factor.
• Layering: Layer your pearl necklace with other necklaces or chains to create a dynamic and interesting look. This can include layering a pearl necklace with a gold chain or another pendant necklace.

Casual and Formal Pairings

Pearls are not just for formal events; they can also be styled for casual wear:

• Casual Chic: Wear your pearl necklace with a casual outfit like a t-shirt and jeans for a stylish yet relaxed look. Delicate pearl earrings, such as Jennifer Meyer’s pearl double-daisy design, can also add a charming touch to any casual outfit.
• Formal Elegance: For a more formal look, pair your pearl necklace with a cocktail dress or a suit. A pearl choker necklace, as seen in Celine’s mod-inspired womenswear collection, can evoke a classic and sophisticated look.

Contemporary Trends in Pearl Jewelry

Baroque Pearls

Baroque pearls, known for their irregular shapes, add a unique touch to any piece of jewelry. They can be used in necklaces, earrings, or even rings to create a distinctive look. Mateo’s delicate pink baroque pearl earrings are a great example of this trend.

Unique Clasps and Settings

Contemporary pearl jewelry often features unique clasps and settings that add an extra layer of style. For example, organic and free-flowing forms, such as Jennifer Behr’s golden clam shell and pearl earrings, make the jewelry feel more laid-back and connected to the natural world.

Colorful Pearls

While traditional white pearls are always in style, colorful pearls such as black Tahitian pearls or pink freshwater pearls can add a modern twist to your look. Paspaley’s coral red silk bracelet featuring a detachable pearl is a chic example of incorporating color into your pearl jewelry.
