Saved this to my computer as a reminder to wear some of the broaches & pins my Great Aunt Liz left me - many are Art Deco from the 40's & 50's.

Love mixing the colors of Linea pearls - I want more colors to play with!

Re: Ways to wear Long Pearls

I didn't see it up there but I have a great look. I have Joan Rivers long pearls (5ft). I bought them in one of her first shows with Kathy Levine.

At that time there was a show on tv with Jamie Lee Curtis, forget the name. She wore a simple "classic" little black dress. Low back,scoop front neck, and tight to knees. She wore the pearls backwards. The long strand went down the back. I did it a few times with a regular tunic top, and it looked great! Many compliments. Not for everyone, but it is fun.

I like it better without a knot. I can't go backless, I think a solid color top/tunic works for me. But for those of you who can go backless, or strapless, go get 'em. Cute look.

Joan Rivers had a 75"" simulated pearl necklace on her show today.

Re: Ways to wear Long Pearls

Thanks for the suggestions. I wore my Linea pink pearls the other day and found them to be so heavy. Anyone else agree? I am rethinking my desire to purchase another strand.
