How to Wear Pearls Everyday + My Top Picks
Do you love pearls but tell yourself you can only wear them dressed up?
My love for pearls runs deep. First and foremost my Nana’s middle name was Pearl, her mother’s name was Pearl, and now my daughter’s middle name is Pearl - alongside another one of my favourite names Isla (which comes from my other grandmother’s name just with a Scottish twist as an ode to my husband’s family). The other reason I love them? The classic elegance that they exude. In fact, I’d probably choose them over diamonds if I had to pick my favourite (gasp! don’t tell my husband - I don’t want to plant any seeds). Thing is they are so pretty that it’s easy to talk yourself out of wearing them everyday. The good news is I don’t live by the belief of saving good things for special occasions. From t-shirts to weddings, I always have them on. Whether it’s my go-to everyday pair of earrings, or the Mother’s Day gift that caught me off guard a few years ago (note: upside of having a spouse who waits until the 11th hour to purchase gifts means he usually defaults to stores who also provide gift wrapping - ha ha ha) in the form of this necklace that replicates the one my Nana always wore - well, they are a staple for me.
Tip for wearing them everyday? Just wear them without over thinking it. Seriously, it’s just that easy. But if you feel like they are a little much (not words in my daily vocabulary), I’ve linked a few pieces that incorporate them as the supporting role. If you’re into main character energy, I’ve also linked my daily go-to’s that stand the test of time - and all style eras.
Here are a few of my top picks:

Reminder: personal style is subject to what you feel at your best in and shouldn’t need to look or be influenced by a seasonal trend that doesn’t “fit” you. My recommendations come from a place of equal parts expertise and what I personally like. Make sure you always choose pieces and products that YOU love and feel at your best in. That’s when true style is created.
