Hi all! I am a complete Pearl newb - I love them, but I haven’t ever bought any because I’ve always considered myself too young for pearls (I’m in my late 20s).
My favourites are white and gold (but champagne coloured, not the deep rich colour) south seas and black Tahitians. I am not that fond of Akoya pearls, not sure why but they’ve never appealed to me in the same way. Perhaps it’s because I like big sizes!
The only problem is that IMO white pearls are best suited to someone a bit older than me, I never see anyone except for women in their late 30s at the earliest donning white pearls. I feel like black pearls lean a bit younger and edgier, so I’m leaning towards buying those, but it feels like usually people buy white and gold first because those colours are like “staples”.
Multicoloured strands are also an option, but again, it feels like a single coloured matched strand is more classic than multiple colours on a strand.
Opinions are welcome!! Thank you!
