At any business or professional event, it is always a good idea to dress carefully. Business attire is often limited to black, gray, or navy blue, however; there have been hundreds of studies to show the subconscious influence colors can project upon an audience, and for women, this subtle tool can be employed in the accessories she wears with her conservative business suit, and especially by her jewelry.

While pearls, real or faux, are always a staple, sometimes a strand of pearls is so ubiquitous, that they do not always create the desired impact. As powerful women leaders have shown, the use of colorful necklaces can convey a more meaningful, tacit message. Bold red coral necklaces project strength and power; blue lapis can send a message of maturity and calmness; and bright colors give the impression of vitality and daring. When Angela Merkel wore the red, black, and gold colors of the German flag on her carnelian and agate necklace during a television debate (see photo below), she inspired headlines. The pop of color from a stone necklace peeking out of a gray business suit sends a message of individuality beyond the professionalism. And it photographs well too, we must add!
