Sex and the City Style Icon Carrie Bradshaw Embraced Pearl Necklaces and So Should You
Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) on Sex and the City was one of the most notable stylish ladies TV has ever dare seen, and boy did she love pearl necklaces. They’re a tasteful choice, and it’s impossible to look bad in them. Which means you don’t need your own TV stylist to pull them off. I like that, because I don’t know if I’d really like dealing with Rachel Zoe!
Aside from being classic, pearls are a great investment. Do you remember how Carrie always had signature token necklaces? I’ve actually been rewatching some of Sex and the City on DVD recently (the entire season comes in the prettiest pink suede book – it’s difficult not to squee) and I realized that aside from the obvious ‘token’ necklaces that Carrie sometimes wore, she always had a necklace she was wearing a few times. Of course, like a real girl, some jewelry got worn more than once. Something we saw on her a lot was pearls, for sure.
And while the traditional long string of pearls is great to have, I think that Carrie Bradshaw would love a pearl lariat necklace, which is only a slight variation on the traditional look. Whatever she had, you can bet it was of great quality, like Mikimoto Pearls. You just know that she’d wear it with everything from a Prada dress to jean overalls. That’s just how she was. She wore what she liked and didn’t care about the haters (remember the Heidi shirt?). And she had a lovely life doing it. So embrace your inner Bradshaw, and thank yourself for being able to do it. No regrets – just fabulous fashion!
