Pearls a bad thing

Who told you you're not supposed to wear pearls? lol I am! You can wear what ever you want!

My gma passed away in November and I plan on wearing her pearls on my wedding day. I don't think it's bad or anything. I'd wear them proudly if I were you. It's what I plan to do.

I've only heard the exact opposite; that they are good luck. Wear them!

I thought pearls was the norm?!

*were not was.. lol

There are some stupid superstitions - "pearls are for tears" etc. Opal is bad luck unless its your birthstone. Crazy and I'm sure from seeing lots of bridal photos, almost 90% of brides wear pearls. Ignore the stupid superstitions and wear your pearls!

I would wear the pearls I really have never heard that and what special blessing and honor to be able to wear them on your special day

I've never heard that pearls are bad luck! I'm wearing them for my wedding, my sister wore them for hers - definitely wear them!

I think it would be a really sentimental way for you to have your something old, and honor your grandfather at the same time. I don't believe in superstitious things anyways, just go for it.

I've never heard its bad luck for wearing pearls. Odd. My best friend wore a pearl necklace at her wedding and I thought it made her look elegant. I would definitly wear them!

One part of the superstition is that pearls are bad luck only if they are a gift, and to give the giver even a quarter to thwart the bad luck. Depends if you believe in this superstitution or not. I don't believe it, although I did an an opal ring once and lost it within a day of owning..laugh.

Thanks everyone I definitely am going to wear them. They are so beautiful and it will make me happy so why not lol.

Hartshead - that is exactly what I heard. Something like its the tears of the sea. I don't know but oh well! lol

Give you grandmother a quarter for the pearls and you're good

I wore pearls :] necklace, earrings & bracelett :]

Yeah i've heard that a bride wearing pearls is bad luck in the fertility area... Depends on what traditions you want to follow... if you aren't superstitious they sound like a Lovely, sentimental gift and i would wear them in a heartbeat if I were you...

I think that they are a wonderful gift and i can bet that your grandmaother would feel honored if you wore them on your special day. Also, i think if she was superstitious she'd have chared you a quarter or advised against wearing them for your wedding.

I say wear them proudly!

My dress has tiny pearls on it, so I'll be wearing pearl earrings and bracelet (no neclace since it's a halter top). Wear whatever you like it's your day!

I think that's crazy. I have never heard of that before, and honestly, I thought it was pretty standard to wear pearls. I most likely will be... I think they are timeless and beautiful---and even more so because they have sentimental value to you.

Oh, shoot. Just one more reason FH and I are going to get divorced..."I can't stand you! You wore pearls on our wedding day! I'm taking the house!"

Haha wowjunkie!
