Alright, alright, alright...

Gemstones were the trend on the red carpet at the Oscars this year! Big drops, colorful facets and very few hot messes! This was an overall generally pleasant Oscars, which for those that love a hot mess, equals boring.

Amy Adams led the pack of colored drops with her Tiffany & Co. gold earrings with rhodochrosite, lapis lazuli, turquoise and diamonds from their Blue Book 2014 Collection. They were paired with equally colorful ring and bracelet featuring yellow diamonds. Accenting her structural Gucci gown in deep royal blue.

Proving to the world that her earlobes are better than ours, Cate Blanchett wore enormous drop earrings by Chopard in white gold with opals and diamonds. No one seemed to loooove her Armani Privé dress, as is the usual practice with 'Red Carpet Cate Blanchett'. But we can certainly appreciate it, just not sure how she sat comfortably in it for over 3 hours. All those crystal shards... She had a friend in the clustered diamonds department in Charlize Theron who wore an almost matching Y necklace with clustered flawless diamond drop by Harry Winston.


Illusion cuff earrings made an appearance. Oscar winner, Lupita Nyong'o wore tiny cuff silhouette diamond earrings from Fred Leighton, Sandra Bullock in pear shape diamonds that curled up her ear by Lorraine Schwartz, and Maria Menuenos wore cuff like earrings from Dove jewelry that complemented her romantic beauty look and slightly bridal dress.

Girl-Next-Door/Most-Popular-Girl-In-School/Consistent-Klutz Jennifer Lawrence repeated two years worth of Oscar looks with a red column gown by Dior and a backlace look from. It seems cutting your hair short in Hollywood makes you 'brave' and 'fashion forward'. In Lawrence's case, it just looks 'old'. She's a beautiful girl, but that cut is not flattering. Leave it to Annette Bening.

Overall, we're excited to see how this year's red carpet will reflect in the tastes of the regular people of the world. Colorful drops? Large diamonds? More backlace?

Happy Opal October!

HAPPY BIRTHSTONES! 

Happy Birthday October babies! New York is currently enjoying summer weather right now so live it up like you've never done before! (Seriously, how often in your life could you have celebrated a birthday without a jacket? Miami excluded.) While you're basking in sunlight, you can add to it with cute opal accessories.

Not a pink fan? Opal is one of the versatile stones. What makes it really interesting is its incredibly wide ranging differences. It goes from milky to incandescent to practically on fire, quite convenient for a birthstone. October can truly represent each day's individuality with Opal as its birthstone. Not everyone likes their birthstone (sorry November Citrine) but with opal, you can customize and always find a suitable shade. Happy Hunting!

Staff Favorites: A Color Series

For the month leading up to JCK Las Vegas, we will feature a hand selected color grouping from members of our very own staff. This week's edition features Pink Flambé.

Our Sales Support Natasha
takes us through her favorite pink picks of the season.

Pink makes me feel feminine and powerful. I think it's always in fashion - there are a lot of girly girls out there! From big to small, light to hot, pink's got it going on. The red jasper stretch bracelet is a bold statement making piece. Wear it with your favorite T-shirt & jeans combo and be noticed. This crystal drop with red topaz is my favorite of the bunch. It's girly, fun and will add a feminine touch to any outfit. For all the October babies, this delicate pink tourmaline necklace is a very elegant accent for a nice dinner date. Everyone loves versatility and these stackable pink sapphire rings are no exception. Wear together for a funkier edge or just one for a simple clean look. Opal jasper is not an everyday stone, but this necklace can definitely become an everyday staple for the bold dresser. Start your fashionista early with these adorable pink CZ turtle kid earrings. Garnet brings the drama to an otherwise simple bracelet that would be fitting for business attire. Last but not least, our 14k yellow gold emblem with pink tourmaline briolette drop earring is the perfect date piece. You just can't go wrong with fancy and flirty! ~ Natasha
