Bubble-gum pink, bright, irresistible fuschia, soft blushing rose - the hottest trend for this summer is PINK and its being fueled by all things Barbiecore! Pink has always been a crowd favorite for summer, with fashionistas strutting out in all-pink outfits and accessorizing them with pink jewelry, handbags and shoes.
This look was further validated when Valentino’s launched its entire Autumn/Winter collection last year in a stunning shade of hot pink. Also, with Pantone declaring Viva Magenta, a robustly gorgeous shade of pink, as the color of 2023, pink is having its moment in the spotlight.
This year, pink isn’t just pink! It’s THE style statement! With the recent release of the Barbie Movie trailer, and Margot Robbie as Barbie in her many different pink outfits, has shown us a thing or two about this ultra-feminine look. What’s more, we’re ready to look at life through pink tinted glasses while wearing an all pink ensemble.
Pink jewelry is the perfect finish for a pink Barbiecore outfit and freshwater pearls with their luscious hues of purplish-pink, soft pink and peachy pink are the gem of the moment.

Nothing is more feminine than a necklace of satiny pink freshwater pearls. Lustrous and gleaming, pink pearls can effortlessly elevate any look. Wear them as an 18 inch Princess length necklace or in a flirty 36 inch Opera style, it’s impossible to go wrong with a pink pearls necklace.
Another great Barbiecore look is a multicolor Freshwater pearl necklace. The Barbie style is all about embracing color and a necklace adorned with pink, lavender, peach and white pearls would pair perfectly with both a light baby pink as well as a strong fuschia pink outfit.
Or how about pink pearl pendants? Pearl pendants are popular because they are so easy to wear and always look great! Plus there are so many different types of pendants to choose from. For instance, at Pearls of Joy, you can find pendants set with perfectly round pearls and embellished with diamonds. But you can also find beautifully baroque pink pearls set on pendants, making them a unique, one-of-a-kind piece.

Pink pearl stud earrings are the perfect accessory for the ultimate Barbiecore look. They are fresh and vibrant and have a glamour to them that is hard to find in any other gem.
The best part about pink stud earrings is how versatile they are- they can look just as lovely with casual pink t-shirt and jeans as they can with a formal pink power-suit at the office. At Pearls of Joy, you can find pink stud earrings in sizes starting at 7.0 mm for AAA and gem quality pearls and going all the way to 12mm.
Another great option is to go for dangling pink pearl earrings. There is something feminine, flirty and sweet that only danglers can deliver. Like stud earrings, danglers also go from day wear to evening styling. Plus, you can choose from an all-pink look or a multicolor look and carry them both with equal panache!

Another must-have jeweled accessory for the Barbiecore look is the pink pearl bracelet. Wear it singly or stack it with coordinating arm candy, it’s impossible to go wrong when you put on pink pearl bracelets.
Your jewelry choices don’t always have to be color-coordinated. Go for some flair by adding unexpected pops of color to your look. Why not wear a pair of luxurious golden South Sea pearl earrings with a hot-pink dress? Or go neutral with a pair of white pearl hoops when donning an electric pink ensemble? Afterall, the Barbiecore aesthetic is all about having fun while looking great!
Barbiecore is here and we love it! It’s exuberant and unapologetically joyous. Pink, saccharine sweet and beloved by all, is the color of the moment and pearls are the perfect gem to pair with it. Whether you go for an all-pink super coordinated look or opt for more eclectic color combinations, with pearls you have an enchanting range of choices and you can never go wrong with this iridescent gem!
