One Strand, Six Ways

by on Feb 14, 2012 in True Style | 7 comments

A little bit can go a long way when it comes to accessories. We are going to prove this to you using one strand of pearls. With a touch of creativity, we will show you 6 different looks made with one simple strand of pearls.

Look #1. Classic
Wear pearls by themselves for a traditional, classic look.

Look #2. Add a Ribbon
Double your pearls over and tie a ribbon to the ends. Take the two ends of ribbon and secure with a bow in the back. You can use whatever color/type of ribbon you like!

Look #3. Mix With Chains
Add interest to pearls by layering with chains. This adds some edge to the soft, classic look of pearls.

Look #4. Add Color
Layer different color beads with pearls to create a bold statement piece.

Look #5. Pin a Brooch on Them
Simply pin any brooch on to your pearls to create a unique look.

Look #6. Create a Bracelet
Twist pearls around your wrist to create the look of a cuff bracelet!
