Star of the year, Natalie Portman, recently attended the Academy Awards nomination luncheon on February 7, 2011.  Like usual, Natalie Portman shined among her fellow nominees.  She wore a short, sapphire blue dress with a dark pearl necklace.  Her pearl necklace hit the right note as a mix between casual and dressy.  Natalie was even seen wearing the same pearl necklace later that day at the airport.  Changing her attire from a fancier dress to a blouse and jeans, she was able to seamlessly change from one look to another with the help of one jewelry accessory.

In one day Natalie Portman went from classy and elegant to casual and put together.  Pairing a pearl necklace with a simple blouse and jeans is a great way to jazz up any casual day look.   The pearl necklace Natalie chose to wear was full of large black pearls with a sampling of lighter ones on one side.
