Pearls are considered elegant, very elegant… but have a stigma of “antique” and “stiff”.
While I associate pearl with class, simple pearl strand doesn’t fit well with the modern pieces I have in my wardrobe. So what a girl to do she likes the look of pearls, but doesn’t love the ‘old’ style?
Luckily, there is such thing as modern pearls. Designers have been putting a modern twist to the old pearl strands and emerging with unique and interesting pieces.
We especially love the cluster pearl strands. The beauty of these cluster strands, is that they will work equally well with an evening gown for an event supreme, as with casual chic attire for a relaxed night on the town.
Here some styles we love. Listed from $$$, to mid-range, to $.
Trust Fund Baby: ABS Cluster Pearl & Paved Ball Necklace -$256
Aspiring Socialite: ABS Pearl Cluster Necklace – $95 (Free Shipping)

I love the new refashioning of pearls! It’s such a cool modern twist on a great classic. Now I need to buy some multi-stranded pearls!

I put the wrong email address and have just posted to correct the error.
I looked at the Savvy Fashionista and that one has the new style but the classic look. I think I want to get one of those too! This is the best informative site on pearls that I have seen in a while. I will bookmark this site.
Thanks again
