a few of my favorite classics......

every girl loves pearls right?
but how do we make our pearls look unique and modern?
i think the key to making your pearls pop is to pair them with another classic piece....
for example....
from left....
pair this beautiful emerald and diamond necklace with your favorite strand of pearls and let the pendant drop just below the pearls...
this bow-tied heart pin would look amazing pinning a few strands of pearls together to the side.....
this cameo can be worn as a necklace or as a pin and i think either would add a great deal to a strand of pearls!!...
these cameo earrings are a perfect pair for a simple strand of pearls....i don't like for my earrings, necklace, and bracelet to match so this is a perfect alternative to the pearl earrings that you have to go with your necklace....
lastly...this tiny flower pin, and tie pin would look lovely on a single strand or double strand of pearls and add just a simple little touch that makes them stand out....
so pull out those special pieces from your grandmother and pair them together!!!
