The Project: Pearls...Pearls

After my laziness during the weekend I decided to start creating again. I watched many old films these days (East of Eden, Giant, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof) and I was in a very 1950s and 1960s mood. So, I was inspired by the most elegant woman of those days, Jackie Kennedy Onassis who loved wearing pearls.

Style icon: Jackie Kennedy Onassis wearing pearls

I chose many freshwater cultured pearls in different colors and made a long, long, necklace that can be worn in many different ways such as this ...

...or this

or even this...

...why not as a bracelet as well!

Because some times, a simple black dress and a few strands of pearls are enough for an elegant outfit!
