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

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

The Beauty of Pearls: How pearls make the skin healthy!

Pearls are very beautiful and special gems. They are the only gems that are naturally created from a living creature, and they look beautiful in a strand that fits so elegantly on our necks and arms. But what many people are unaware of is that pearls are also used to care for the skin. The precious water gems are an ancient Chinese secret that has now become worldly known.

Freshwater or Saltwater Pearls are crushed into a powder and used as a skin care treatment for people who had inflamed skin. Pearls are considered by its advocates to help improve the appearance of the skin. To take 1 gram of pearl powder by mouth, traditionally mixed into water or tea, twice weekly could reduce redness of the skin almost instantly.
