Wear your pearls for every occasion! Nadine Lustre, Michelle Dy, and more show us how to dress the gem in different ways
They say you receive your first big-girl pearls once you become a woman. Usually, it’s on your 18th birthday or maybe even during your first day of work. The point is, these ocean bred gems have always been a symbol of femininity, womanhood, and purity. According to The Curious Lore of Precious Stones by George Kunz, he described the pearl as the moon to a diamond’s sun. That being said, every woman should have a staple string of pearls on her nightstand. Whether they be in the form of earrings, a necklace, or even a bracelet, pearls are definitely an essential.
