From XL earrings featuring the sculptural baroque variety to necklaces and bracelets with a rebellious spin on the gem (think interlaced with chunky strands of rope or contrasted with industrial-like metal chains), both fashion and jewellery houses agree that the modern way to wear pearls – simulated or genuine – shouldn’t be pretty, but pretty cool. A ProTip: The good thing about pearls is that they’ll always look sophisticated so go ahead and throw them over casual, off-duty pieces (yeap, including that tee or sweatshirt). Being precious and reserving them for your LBDs only is so passe.
