Pearls Gone Wild

T.Cyia Jewelry

The most successful pairings are simple ones. Bacon and eggs. Ramalama and dingdong. 

It’s when they get complicated that disaster emerges. Chocolate and French fries. Ari and E.

Here’s an interesting combo sure to rock your world: skull charms and pearls, the glamorously punk-rock components of T.Cyia jewelry.

Peacock pearls strung alongside brass skulls can be worn extra-long or wrapped short for the choker-wearing set. Other combos include a nautical howlite, blue pearl, and ribbon grouping and heavyweight cloisonné balls with 14-karat links.

Top it off with shiny five-row cuffs or a pair of earrings featuring the signature skull amidst a mass of delicate metal chains.

As for what to wear with all of it?

Leather and lace sounds right.
