Pearls.

So....my mother bought me my pearls for my first wedding. They were my "something new." That marriage didn't work out.

Mom has since passed away and I miss her more than can be expressed in this post.

Is it bad "juju" to wear them at my second wedding? I am more connected to them because of her than of the occasion for which they were intended.

Help!!!!

I would wear them.

I'm sorry about the loss of your mom.

If their meaning to you has more to do with your mom than your previous marriage, then by all means, wear them.  Personally, I feel that it has more to do with the meaning you assign to the item, not the occasion to which the item was previously worn. 
For example, a piece of my mother's headpiece is being put into my headpiece.  My parents are divorced, but I'm not concerned about it having been part of their wedding even though the marriage didn't work out.  It means something to me because my mom wore it.
Sorry for your loss.

I'm not superstitious, so I would definitely wear them. The personal meaning would greatly outweigh the "juju".

I am so sorry for your loss.  I can't even imagine what it is like to lose a parent.

I do not think wearing the pearls is bad "juju".  I doubt that the pearls are the reason your first marriage didn't work.  Anyhoo, the pearls were a present from your Mom and you even said that you are more connected to them because of her, not because of the first wedding.

Wear them and know that your Mom is watching over you.

It's not bad juju.  In my second wedding, my 8 year old daughter wore my tiara that I wore during my first wedding.  It was cute and no big deal.
