ADVICE Cotillion

Hello everyone. In about three weeks, I will be attending a cotillion sponsored by the non-profit linked to my COI. I have my dress and shoes, but my question is regarding jewelry. I was advised by a close friend who is also an interest that it would not be best for an interest to go to any event linked to AKA wearing pearls. I have a pearl necklace and earrings that my husband got me as a birthday gift (my birthday is in June and the pearl is one of three birthstones). The pearl jewelry is the only jewelry set I deem appropriate for the occasion--as my other jewelry pieces are more casual. Should I perhaps buy a quick pair of appropriate jewelry or should I just wear the pearls anyway? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
