Sarah Jessica Who? Sarandon’s Pearls Outshine the Rest at the Golden Globes
The Golden Globes returned with much pazazz this year after being cancelled last year. Like always, there was as much interest in what the celebrities looked like on the red carpet as who won the awards. But in amongst the dazzling gowns and sparkling diamonds, perennial Hollywood icon Susan Sarandon caught my eye with her stylish and sophisticated long pearl necklace, made by New York boutique designer Fred Leighton.Susan clearly loved showing off her pricey pearls and even asked the designer if she could hold on to them.Well wouldn’t you? Her 32″ string looked both modern and elegant around her neck.
You might say that the fact that Sarandon, still stunning at 62, was the only A-list celebrity at the Globes to be wearing pearls, means that we’re going back to the days of pearls being the jewels of choice for the “older” woman? Far from it! Pearl jewellery has a timeless elegance and charm if you know how to wear it. The secret to true pearl chic is to go that extra mile and find something unique!A word of caution – you need to be wary of the many low grade and poorly fashioned eBay pearls out there. If you’re on a budget, go for natural freshwater pearls which can be beautiful. But for the true celeb treatment you should spend that little extra on saltwater pearls, the choice of Susan Sarandon on Sunday night.
Susan Sarandon follows a long line of Hollywood pearl loving superstars over the last 50 years. I’m sure you’ll agree, each of them are classy in their own way and yet very different characters.These five names from the past and present tell you all you need to know about why pearls will never stop being one of the finest accessories of society’s high flyers?
