For years without name, Badgley Mischka — the design label of James Mischka and Mark Badgley — has been a linchpin of fashion. The two men are considered two of the top clothing designers in the United States, producing pieces that are glamorous but wearable, fashionable but functional, and beyond stylish. And now Badgley Mischka has jewelry that is just as timeless and sophisticated.

In a way, a pearl necklace from Badgley Mischka is perfect — pearls are timeless too, after all.

You might think pearls are a little too antiquated, but just take a look at this gorgeous Victorian Pearl Choker. Antique? Absolutely, but with an undeniable and stylish edge. It goes great with a little blank dress.

It features six strands of pearls, as well as an intricate, coolly chunky pendant made of rhinestones. The choker is made of freshwater pearls and glass crystals and, get this, it is less than three hundred dollars!
