Pearl accessories may bring to mind visions of Lucille Ball, Charlotte York, or maybe your dear grandma Mary. Pearls, like so many other fashion trends, have adopted many personalities over the years — ranging from dowdy to classy to ultra trendy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I mean, if Harry Styles wears an accessory, you know it’s having a moment. Such is the new era of pearls. They’re hot. And these are definitely not your grandmother’s pearls. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re going to level with you: you\u2019re not going to get pearls that can be passed down for generations at a budget price. But faux pearls have come a long way — they will give you the look you want without breaking the bank. Here are seven pearl accessories that put a modern spin on this classic gem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

7 delightful Pearl accessories<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Purrfect pearls<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If anyone was going to combine three of our favorite things — cats, earrings, and pearls — of course it would be Betsey Johnson. We\u2019re swooning over these too-cute-for-words pearl cat studs\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a>! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Cat-themed

With a pearl head, gold ears and necktie, and aqua body, these couldn\u2019t be any further from the classic pearl earrings you watched your mom put on when you were growing up. At a price under $20, can you really afford not to add them to your collection? We\u2019re giving them two paws up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Librarian chic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s a reason librarians wear their glasses on a neck chain (or at least they do in our heads and in the movies). It actually works to make sure those glasses don\u2019t get misplaced. Somehow even if all we\u2019re doing is sitting in bed being mad at Netflix for reminding us that we haven\u2019t moved in three hours, we still manage to misplace our phones. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Phone

This pearl necklace iPhone case lanyard<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> is a genius and chic solution. No more looking in the freezer next time your phone\u2019s ringing and you have no idea where it could be. Not that we\u2019ve<\/em> ever done that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Seeing stars<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Pearl

This pearl handbag by Halogen<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> will definitely be the star of your outfit no matter what you\u2019re wearing! Whether you pair it with the perfect LBD next time you get to have a date night<\/a>, or dress it down with a T-shirt and jeans, it\u2019s bound to spark a conversation or two. And next time someone says something that makes you want to clutch your pearls, at least you won\u2019t have to reach far!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. A head above the rest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Headbands are perfect for quarantine life, right? They camouflage undone hair look and are especially useful for growing out the bangs you cut for your self during the Great Lockdown. Maybe that’s why they’re suddenly trendy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Headband

This velvet black and white pearl headband<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> is the perfect accessory to combine both trends in a way that feels fresh, yet somehow like it could have always been something you owned. If you\u2019re still spending most of your time at home, no worries! Put it on for your next wine o\u2019clock Zoom session with your friends and you\u2019ll be the fanciest one on the call, even if you\u2019re still wearing yesterday\u2019s sweatpants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Jumping through hoops<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Oversized

It\u2019s hard for us to resist a good hoop earring, so when we saw these pearl hoops<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>, our hearts skipped a beat. For under $10, they\u2019re probably not going to fool anyone you know into thinking they\u2019re heirloom quality, but they\u2019re fun, cute, and combine two classic looks in an unexpected way. The scale of the faux pearls adds a playfulness to them, so we\u2019d pull these out on your super casual days. Throw on a comfy shirt and shorts or a loose fitting maxi and you\u2019ve got the perfect look!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Putting your best foot forward<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s hard to imagine not feeling footloose and fancy free in these pearl and crystal Keds by Kate Spade<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>. Pearls, crystals, and Keds in the same sentence sounds like a setup to a bad joke, but we\u2019re telling you, it works! And why can\u2019t you be fancy as heck while still being comfortable? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Pearl

This line was created for brides and soon-to-be brides, but we think these shoes are perfect whether you\u2019re walking down the aisle or walking in circles around the block to avoid going stir crazy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. One necklace to rule them all<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Black beads and pearls go together like peanut butter and jelly. They\u2019re already great on their own, but together in this long strand necklace<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> they create a look that\u2019s stylish, sexy, and sophisticated without making you feel like you need a country club membership to wear it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a great statement necklace<\/a> that you can rock with anything in your wardrobe. We\u2019d love to see it dressed down for a more casual look, paired with a simple knit or cotton summer dress as your only jewelry and a great pair of black sunglasses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
