Let's take a step back. It's the late nineties. The Spice Girls are mourning the loss of Geri. Your crush is transitioning from a floppy middle part to frosted tips. On his neck: the puka shell necklace. Yes, this polarizing but time-capsule-worthy necklace was worn by THAT guy, the one who was equal parts douchebag, equal parts did-one-nice-thing-for-you-in-grade-two-so-underneath-that-bro-exterior-lies-the-heart-of-a-poet. Yeah, him.
Now that you've reminisced, come back to 2021. That boycrush prototype now wears pearls. He is striking—nay—dreamy. Harry Styles, V, Asap Rocky and Shawn Mendes, we are looking at you. This is the vibe of a confident, hot human being in touch with all their emotions and who attends therapy biweekly. And yet... the person that'd look better in a pearl necklace? You. That's right, you are a fully-actualized adult human being with impeccable style and are way past questionable taste in potential partners. And if you aren't, well, at least you can look like it.
