Gaga for Freshwater Pearls!

Friday, February 12th, 2010

We are always excited to see what new and hot trends come out of Fashion Week.  Call us biased, but we always love to see how designers are using pearl jewelry to accent their clothes and accessories.  Pearls have been on a hot streak the past few years on the runways of Bryant Park and this season the current “It Girl” of fashion has taken to pearls in her unique and signature way.

It doesn’t matter if you love or hate Lady Gaga’s fashion sense, but you cannot help but admire the risks she takes.  At Honora, we’ve always worked hard to live up to our motto of A Fresh New Look At Pearls and we have to commend Gaga on taking a Freshwater Pearl look to the next level.

Lady Gaga, you looked amazing decked out in all of those pearls, but we have to make one tiny suggestion.  Next time, give us a call and add in some of our pearl colors!  We are always here if you need us.

So, what do you think of Gaga’s one-of-a-kind pearl look?  Let us know in the poll below or in the comments section!
