Just Ask Leslie: Jewelry Tips

Dear Leslie,
I have a basic pair of pearl earrings that I have had forever. I would like to find some accessories other than a classic pearl necklace that I can wear with them. Do you have any recommendations?

A basic pair of pearl earrings is a jewelry wardrobe staple – you have to have a pair! Sometimes it is hard to find fresh, new ways of wearing our favorite old pieces. This cultured freshwater pearl and diamond 14K white gold pendant is a perfect choice to update those earrings! This pendant recalls the elegance and grace of a previous era but has a contemporary feeling that makes it perfect for today. The 17 inch chain makes it a perfect length for a variety of necklines. The cutout design keeps this piece light and fun while making a dramatic statement.

If you are really adventurous, you might want to try this out-of-this-world black diamond and cultured freshwater pearl 14K white gold ring. Just imagine your “little black dress” with your pearl earrings and this ring for a Friday night out. It makes a very unique statement for the right person.

Begin to think out of the box with your pearl accessories. There are lots of options out there if you’re willing to be a little daring and creative!
