Pearls on you, big screen, and on stage
July 7, 2008 – 1:49 pmPearls. They are a beautiful gift from the ocean. Pearls are a status symbol, and also a fashion statement. A pearl necklace shows wealth and social status. Every woman would love to receive or purchase a pearl necklace, I know I would!!! Pearl necklaces are worn to accentuate the neckline, or to accessorize your clothing/complete a look. They come in many different lengths and each necklace serves for a different outfit.
Lengths of necklaces:
Collar - 12 to 13 inches
Choker – 14 to 16 inches
Princess – 17 to 19 inches
Matinee – 20 to 25 inches
Opera – 26to 36 inches
Rope – over 37 inches
JR Dunn carries one of the best pearl brands in the world Mikimoto. Mikimoto has the signature item that was used in the movie “Sex and the City” by Sarah Jessica Parker’s character, Carrie Bradshaw. In the movie Carrie wears her pearls everywhere… even to bed! These pearls are gorgeous and put a classy/funky look to any outfit. Long pearl necklaces have always been a personal favorite of mine, so when I saw it in the movie I was really excited to see that Carrie would be starting a fashion trend.
My favorite thing to do with pearl necklaces is to layer them. Britney Spears copied an outfit that Madonna wore at their performance at the 2003 MTV movie awards.
