Bringing Back The 1920s: Pearls Edition

We’ve all seen the Vivienne Westwood pearl necklace going around, and you either love pearls or hate them. I love them and fortunately, this jewelry trend is making its way back and looks like it is going to be around for a while because it can range between a large variety of accessories from earrings to even details on shoes.

Necklaces were the first pearl pieces I saw coming back. I noted they were coming back months ago when I kept seeing them pop up on Depop, Poshmark, and ThredUp, and then on celebrities including Gigi Hadid and Harry Styles.

Both bracelets and pearls are classic items. The two combined allows for a simple yet elegant piece that does not overwhelm a whole outfit and only adds to it.

Earrings are one of my favorite things to play around with. If you google Pearl Earrings, tons of different styles and shapes come up meaning there is more room to experiment here within this trend.

Pearls on headbands and clips have been in trend before, however, I like how they are revamped onto these hair ties and barrette. I’m debating on getting or making these for myself.

Stuart Weitzman always stays up to date with the latest trends to incorporate them into their shoes while Chanel has been incorporating pearls into their pieces for decades. Instead of buying brand new pieces, you could also buy a strip of pearls from your local art store and place them onto a heel to restyle them or make a chain for your purse or belt bag like the picture above. 

What do you think about pearls coming back into trend? Will you be trying them out and if so, how?
