Hey Fashionistas:

We came across the image and it took our breath away! When it comes to beauty, class, edge and jazz, how can we ever forget the woman behind the woman that wore the banana skirt and pearls?

Pearl Fashion: Looking Fashionable in Black, Gold and Pearls

Pearls are not just for Granny anymore! Class up your black and white and make it Coco Chanel! Add a little gold for the look of glamour! Nothing beats a really great top with a cluster of pearls.

The short A-line skirt is the right amount of youth without being “too young”. A pair of great chunky heels covered in gold and pearls does the trick for a little drama and never forget a good clutch for added richness. read more
