Pearl fever!: Carrie Bradshaw's secrets to wear them

FashionIs there an age to wear pearls? Here we tell you.

Pearls are one of the beauty secrets for women of any age: with our tips you can wear them from 20 to 60 years old, without the look aging with these wonderful pearlescent jewels.

Sarah Jessica Parker makes it very clear. In the second part of Sex and the City, -which intended to portray a precise status symbol, and has become a reference for several generations with its fashion, friendship and sex fetishes-, And Just Like That, which already exists the official trailer, and in which Carrie, where she exposes her gray hair and wrinkles, makes us think that times have really changed.

We often cling to stereotypical thoughts that see pearls as jewelry of a specific age, but this is no longer the case. With the same naturalness with which Carrie surprised when wearing this piece on the set of Sex & the City, they can be worn at any age, from 20 to 60 (and more). Before, through the number of strings of pearls that were worn around her neck, a woman told her story; today they are chosen as a whim and, with conscience, are worn with pride (without necessarily having been passed down from the mother or grandmother). Thus, they are part of the fashion look, illuminating with their pearly surface.

However, you have to be careful when wearing them: it doesn't take much to achieve a trendy look that instantly ages your image. Obviously, Carrie does not miss a thing when it comes to fashion and, in fact, one of the best outfits seen on the set of the new episodes shows the protagonist wearing the iconic necklace -the one that bears her name- accompanied by two rounds of pearls, one white and one emerald green. After 20 years, once again, Sarah Jessica Parker has something to teach us: that one of a woman's beauty secrets is also pearls, regardless of age.
