Celebrities in Pearls: Zooey Deschanel

Posted by

This “New Girl” was the “It Girl” at the Golden Globe Awards for 2014. Zooey Deschanel looked like vintage Hollywood glam in her Oscar de la Renta 2014 collection of pearls. The cute netted crop top filled with pearls made her the catch of the day. The high-low skirt with sparkling embroidery was classic chic and the shoes… we love! Pearls and more pearls are just so glamorous.

Her makeup was flawless and the side swept chignon was the gorgeous style that she needed to remind us of the past Hollywood greats like Rita Hayworth, Grace Kelly and Betty Davis, and Joan Crawford. read more

Well take a look at this natural beauty. Rashida Jones, daughter of the great and talented musician, Quincy Jones is looking good at the Golden Globes Award ceremony of 2014. We love her messy top bun, and the natural looking makeup with a hint of red wine lips.

What caught our attention, besides her beautiful features especially her eyes, are her pearl earrings. Her four rows of pearl earrings are classy and daring all at the same time. We love when a lady is not scared to take a chance and make a look her own and Ms. Jones owns those pearls. read more

ASK MS. ELITOU: How do you wear pearls with a casual outfit?

Posted by
Pearls are commonly known to compliment more upscale evening pieces or professional clothing like dress suits. They are not commonly associated with casual wear, so I completely understand you inquiry. Pearls can be styled with causal looks like the look above featuring a gray and white striped sweater, dark blue distressed jeans, pink statement cat-eye glasses, a pair of simple white wedge sneaker boots, flower earrings, and a perfect combination of layered rhinestone and pearl bracelets.

This look really works because the pearls are just an accent piece rather than the full focus of the look. The combination of the pearls and rhinestones layered as a bracelet creates an awesome appearance that speaks class and sophistication with a little fun and daringness.  They truly complement each other.

To keep your look flawlessly casual be sure not to overdo the pearls (i.e. pearl necklace with pearl bracelets, ring and earrings together) because this will instantly make you look overdone and overdressed. read more

PEARL FASHION: Pearl Engagement Rings!

Posted by
There is nothing more beautiful than a gift that comes from the heart; a gift that is honest, genuine, and has a delightful uniqueness. That is what you are looking for when you get an engagement ring… all the right qualities.

An engagement ring symbolizes a “promise to marry” and it is just as important as the actual wedding ring. The engagement ring is to be worn by the woman until the day of marriage therefore it has to be special. It has to fit her personality and her finger.

Pearls are natural beauties and they symbolize the perfect blend of sophistication, excellence, harmony and complete purity. What is even more beautiful is the pricing for these fashionable rings which falls far under the price of diamonds but that doesn’t mean that they do not have monetary and sentimental value. read more
