Who Said Tough Girls Can't Wear Pearls?

Well Rihanna surely didn't! Edgy icon, Rihanna, has been caught following the flow of pearl jewelry these days throwing fans off left and right. Weren't pearls what our great-great grannies wore? Strong women like Michelle Obama and Rihanna and a pool of Hollywood women have been changing that. In picture 1, Rihanna seems to have altered the famous Jackie O to her own taste and flair. Many jewelers have a small selection, and unlike OrientalPearls.net, you cannot alter your jewelry to your whim. She's also been following fashionistas like Sarah Jessica Parker (voted second biggest trendsetter of the country in this year's PARADE magazine) with the layering of necklaces, taking

 'layers' the next level: mounds! Once again, Rihanna makes herself stick out for her individuality at the 'Inglourious Basterds' premiere with
