Are colored pearls authorized for women's earrings?

• A. Yes
• B. Only ceremonial occasions
• C. Only for medical uses
• D. No

Answer: (D)

Uniform jewelry rules for the dress outfit require small, conservative earrings with color and material specified. The allowance for pearls is limited to white pearls worn as small studs (no more than a quarter inch in diameter). Colored pearls don’t meet this color requirement, so they aren’t authorized. There isn’t an exception in these rules that permits colored pearls for ceremonial or medical uses.
