Fabulous and Classic Famous First Lady Jewelry

The jewelry you wear reveals a lot about the wearer. Personality. Style. Class. Many Presidential First Ladies were well known for their choice in jewels and gems, and several have become so famous to have replicas of their favorite pieces created.

Probably the most well known and recognized First Lady with an extensive and classy collection of adornments is Jackie Kennedy Onassis. Known for her simple, elegant and classic style with pillbox hats and pearls, she is acknowledged decades later for her iconic jewelry. Though other First Ladies before her had worn pearls, she made them the new tradition for the First Ladies to come. Jackie’s three strand pearl necklace was her signature piece that everyone who lived in the Kennedy era, remembers her wearing.

First Lady Barbra Bush was also well known for her pearl necklace which became tremendously popular.  Jewelers across the country created replicas and known as “First Lady pearls.” Who doesn’t want to ooze with the class and radiance of someone like so many of our country's First Ladies?

Breaking the mold for First Ladies, Michelle Obama has been seen in pieces from the classic First Lady pearls to fabulous vintage brooches and sparkling statement necklaces. She might go down in history for her fashion sense just as Jackie Kennedy Onassis.
