If diamonds are a girl's best friend, pearls are like your great grandmother; timeless and wise.  They epitomize the essence of class and beauty when it comes to style.  Women have adorned themselves with these rare jewels found deep in the ocean for thousands of years.  Audrey Hepburn, Jackie O., Grace Kelley, Marilyn Monroe and Carrie Bradshaw all made the pearl necklace iconic in the 20th Century.  And the pearl's timelessness has carried on to the 21st century to be just as meaningful.  Every time I slip a strand around my neck, I can't help but to accessorize it with my favorite pink lipstick.  Pearls just make me feel pretty.  So pretty, that I don't want to take them off.  I may just sleep in them tonight.
