CELEBRITY FASHION: Nicki Minaj in Pearly Captains Hat

Ahoy there mates! We know who the captain of this fashion ship is… a woman that steers her own helm. The beautiful Nicki Minaj was spotted last year during her 4th of July Myx Fusions’ Myx & Mingle cruise in New York City, 2013.

The Massive Attack artist almost served the crew and passengers a heart attack in her bright white Herve Leger wrap dress, showing off all of her curves; sexy red nails and glittery peep toe shoes.

What we love the most about her look is the pearly captain’s hat that topped off the look amazingly. Nicki is a woman that knows how to switch up from her sexually charged hip hop style to a look that is classy and chic. read more

PEARL FASHION: The Great Gatsby Movie Featuring Loads of Pearls

The Great Gatsby (2013) was a great movie that gained loads of attention due to its awesome casts, storyline, and gorgeous costumes but we at Pearls Only could not help but take some time to honor the jewelry of the movie, with the main focus being the beautiful pearls!

Pearls are very important to the Great Gatsby because without pearls you cannot truly embody the look of the 20s when Flappers were out and about.  This is why costume designer, Catherine Martin, and director, Baz Luhrmann, teamed up with the famous jewelers, Tiffany & Company, to create a line of jewelry so fantastic, that it has its own featured role! It is so necessary to acknowledge the work and research that Catherine and Tiffany had to do to make the movie realistic to the flapper style of the 20s. If you look back to the 1974 version of The Great Gatsby, Daisy’s signature is her long strand of pearls. read more
