Let me count the ways...6 Reasons to LOVE Pearls this Winter

It’s no secret that we love pearls here at Pearl & Clasp. We live pearls; eat, sleep, and breathe pearls (okay, not literally, but you get my drift). So that’s why we are always so excited to see what big designers and fashion forecasters are predicting for our favorite accessory during any given season. And this winter, we couldn’t help but just count the ways to LOVE your pearls.

1. Natural and classic haven’t always gone hand in hand, but with the resurgence of environmental tree-hugging and a constant embracing of natural colors, fibers, and materials, pearls are a go-to accessory when rocking your creamy looks. A multi strand necklace is the perfect addition to a slouchy sweater and feminine, flowy skirt, perfect for a day out with the girls or a casual date.

2. Menswear madness is a serious thing this fall and winter, and pearls help give a feminine touch to otherwise very gender-blurring duds. I love the look of a tailored french cuff shirt for women, and my favorite cufflinks would definitely be made of pearls to give a girly, whimsical touch to this traditionally masculine look.

3. Pearls have some serious edge this season, and we can’t get enough of the look of this usually demure and conservative accessory rocking out some headbanging bling.

4. The sporty look is all the rage this fall, and while we haven’t traditionally seen pearls as a sporty accessory, this season it seems like anything goes. Pearl earrings are the go to studs of the season, perfect with a preppy top and leggings.

5. Bring on the bling! We’ve talked about how pearls and diamonds are a match made in heaven, and we’re thrilled to see that the pearls with diamonds trend doesn’t seem to be letting up any time soon. Perfect for weddings or formal affairs, not to mention a natural pairing for your holiday centerpieces, pearls and diamonds continue to get cozy in this season’s looks.

6. DIY Pearls seems like an oxymoron, but every gal seems to be obsessed with the do-it-yourself fad that we hope never goes out of style. While stringing your own pearls may seem like a daunting task, you can easily take your outdated pearl strand and get it restrung to whatever design you may desire, picking a new pearl clasp along the way.

Since you know Pearl & Clasp, you know that we could go on and on about the reasons why to love your pearls this season (or any time of the year, for that matter!), but these are the ways that we were just gushing to share. The truth is, any way (or where) you wear your pearls, you just can’t go wrong.

We’re off to enjoy some more fall fashions!
