Do you consider yourself a pearl girl? (Yes, Jen, I see you nodding your head.) I’ve never had a strong affinity for them personally, as most of the designs I saw growing up were too traditional for my taste. It’s just not my personal style to wear an heirloom strand of white pearls or a pair of round stud earrings, as lovely as they are. But let me tell you that the tide is turning, and I’m seeing some sleek, modern designs out there that may have me changing my tune. Take a look at these pieces and see what you think.

I’m all over these!!! I’ve always loved pearls and now they’ve gone modern.
Right up your alley, for sure!
Oh my, are you ever speaking my language! As a GIA Pearls Graduate, I’m obsessed with all pearl jewelry. I love the selections you’ve included because they are very ‘now’ yet still classic, timeless and very versatile – making them all perfect for day or evening, casual or dressy occasions.
I’s especially loving Delfina Delettrez’s 18K gold, pearl and diamond ring you have pictured here – it’s so pretty!

I’m with Mom – love the modern take on an old favorite!
I’m impressed by all the cool pearl designs out there, Mimi.
Personally I do not wear too much of pearl. But after looking at this ensemble you put together, I am wondering why have I never had some!
I’m with you–these new pearl designs have me re-thinking things!
