Ladies, you’ll totally love this post! Wondering if wearing pearls at the office could be considered too much? Going to work should be fun, exciting, and a can’t wait-to-get-there kind of moment. Therefore, your outfits should measure up to the importance of the moment. At the same time, be careful not to make your outfit look busy. No worries, we will tell you how to wear pearls at work without looking over the top. It really depends on your working environment, your job type, and the image you want to project. Keep reading to find out what pearls are considered appropriate to wear at the office and what you should avoid.

Pearls are the best cure for dull days. Going to the office, this doesn’t mean wearing boring outfits. If your job implies a lot of meetings, networking events and meeting new clients, then you are encouraged to wear your finest pearl accessories. Does your formal attire require suits, jackets, white shirts, and formal shoes? Then your best option when it comes to elegant pieces of jewelry is to wear pearls. A single strand white pearl necklace with a shorter length will complement a crew neck blouse, a buttoned shirt or a slim fit jacket, while just a single pair of white pearl earrings with a classy design will brighten up your entire look.

3 simple rules to keep in mind while wearing pearls at work:

  1. Avoid wearing two pieces of pearl jewelry together. Pairing the necklace with the bracelet, for instance, is considered too much and is part of the etiquette of wearing a pearl necklace in your everyday life.
  2. Don’t pick chunky or imposing pieces. You should opt for understated, simple, easy to wear pearl jewelry items that don’t overcrowd your outfit. In a business environment, the attention should fall on your work, not on your jewelry. You certainly don’t want your clients or colleagues to get distracted from presentations.
  3. Always dress, put your make-up and add your perfume first. Pearls are added last. Oh, and do take into account the type of job you’re performing. There are certain fields of work where wearing jewelry is not considered appropriate, like hospitals or dental offices.
