Red Carpet Jewelry

Keeping an eye on the jewelry worn by celebrities is a good way to monitor current jewelry trends and get a preview of styles that could be popular in a season or two. Celebrities have access to the newest designs, and it isn't unusual for a piece of jewelry worn by a popular star to become a hot fashion trend.

Jewelry at the Oscars

The annual Academy Awards event is the number one destination to see celebrities draped in vintage and contemporary jewelry. Diamonds and platinum are always plentiful, but more and more colorful gemstones set in deep yellow gold have made an appearance in the past few years. The Oscars are always a jewelry-lover's must-see (but this gallery zooms in closer than typical television cameras).
