The Pearl Necklace... Overdone or Underused?

The Pearl Necklace...
Is it Overdone or Underused?
In my opinion it is a bit of both. I know... that may not make sense, but let me explain.

When wearing a pearl necklace it is best not to overdo it like what Rihanna did in the picture that I have of her here. It doesn't need to be that messy and complicated. As forward and fun as Rihanna can be, she does not always get it right. Then again no one person Always gets it right 100% of the time.
If you're going to wear a pearl necklace and you want to make a statement with it then it is best to get a very long one. That way you can layer it a bit to make a more noticeable effect. If you want to add just a bit more to it, then get a simple thin Gold or Silver necklace (depending on the outfit) with a simple but fun design and layer that on top of the pearls. Not all the layer have to be even, just make it fun.

Or... if you're going to a more formal occasion you can do as Jackie O. did in the picture I have of her. Take an already multi layered pearl necklace and wear it. That's all you need to do. Then maybe wear simple earrings such as Diamonds or something of the like. No need to have more than one statement piece.
Be careful though. A pearl necklace does not go with every outfit. Plus you don't want to wear it too much and make the look more boring.
