It’s time for another Prominent Pearl Sighting, and it’s Mrs. Obama! It’s no secret that Michelle Obama loves her pearls- whether classic and demure, or layered a la the Material Girl, these gorgeous gems that we love so much are getting major play this year! First in a bright Spring-themed mint green and cream sweater set from J. Crew, and then last evening in a custom Black and White sleeveless dress at the G-20 Summit dinner in London, the First Lady wowed the crowd of assembled paparazzi and onlookers by stepping out wearing a classic Double Strand Necklace- it looks to me that the pearls are in the 9.0-10.0mm range- featuring a gorgeous Silver Overtone that verges on that ethereal blue that’s just to die for!
