My mom is from the South which may explain why I grew up with the thought that my first strand of pearls would be a "womanhood" thing. I got my first strand when I graduated college. I got my second strand as a present after becoming a Delta.
I've never heard the term "getting pearled" but I hope it went well for the OP.
