PEARL CELEBRATION: A Conversation with Andre Freeland- Are Pearls Sexy?

Posted by

Are pearls sexy? On most occasions, pearls are worn as a symbol of class, professionalism, and sophistication. We see women of power like the First Lady of the United States in pearls; English Royalty and other country women have been spotted in pearls; and let’s not forget women who are lawyers, doctors, and educators who have been seen adorning the precious jewel. Not often are we exposed to pearls in an exotic fashion, or have we?

In December of 2007, celebrity reality star Kim Kardashian dared to be nude and expose her goodies in the issue of Playboy magazine wearing nothing but pearls. There was also Rihanna who stunned onlookers in Paris when she attended a fashion show for Chanel, dressed in a crème colored duster, pearls and not much to the imagination. Many people found her look to be a little too daring while most (especially men) thought that she looked like the sexiest symbol of pearls. read more

ASK MS. ELITOU: Are Pearls Good for Your Everyday Woman?

Posted by

 “Hey Ms. Elitou! I have been looking at the Pearls Only jewelry and I wanted to know do you think that pearls are for the everyday woman? Can the average woman who has the hustle and bustle of work, constant outings, all while maintaining the responsibilities of raising children get a great amount of use from pearl jewelry? I am a mother of two and I find that I have little time to switch up my jewelry, I need them to go with everything and I need to be able to move fast.  I would love to invest in diamonds but I am too worried about the cost and the possibility of losing an earring due to my fast moving lifestyle. Do you think pearls would be a better fit for me? Thanks in advance!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                -Catherine B. read more

CELEBRITIES IN PEARLS: Rihanna Looks Great in Pearl Jeans!

Posted by

Rihanna is becoming the Queen of pearls! She seems to always be wearing a pair in her ears, on her neck, around her glasses and now she has taken it a step further by wearing them on her jeans.

Rihanna is such a trendsetter so it was only natural for her to wear a pair of pearl embellished jeans by a really unique and trendy brand, Tu Es Mon Tresor.

Tu Es Mon Tresor has really futuristically chic clothing including loads of clothing with pearl accents.

In April, Rihanna was spotted heading to a party at the Supper Club in Hollywood, California wearing a stylish pair of Tu Es Mon Tresor Boyfriend Jeans with Pearls down the sides. The jeans were complemented with a cute Chanel jacket and bandeau top. She made the pearls really pop by choosing to pair them with a pair of silver pumps. read more
