Timeless Jewels Light Up the Globes


Actresses Freida Pinto and Elizabeth Banks in two of the 2008 Golden Globes jewelry trends: drop earrings and statement necklaces.



Los Angeles--Classic jewelry looks and beautifully structured gowns brought a bit of old Hollywood glamour to the 2008 Golden Globe Awards held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles this past Sunday. Top jewelry trends that evening included earrings in drop styles and studs, statement necklaces, bold bangles and cuffs. These styles provided just the right amount of sparkle against flowing one-shoulder, belted waist and mermaid shaped gowns. Noteworthy stylish celebs included Beyonce Knowles (in drop earrings and a fringe necklace), Golden Globe nominee Christina Applegate (in yellow diamond drop earrings and matching flower necklace and rings) and Elizabeth Banks in cushion cut diamond studs, necklace and flower rings.) Golden Globe nominee Marisa Tomei capitalized on the statement trend by wearing Sevan's one-of-a-kind "Zeus" necklace in carved citrine and diamonds along with several other platinum necklaces featuring darkened and pave diamond balls by Neil Lane. Yellow gold and colored gemstones also made a strong showing at the Globes. Drew Barrymore donned moonstone and opal pendant earrings by Lorraine Schwartz, Kate Beckinsale chose red Spinel and diamond chandelier earrings and Sandra Bullock wore yellow gold and turquoise earrings by Amrapali with complementing snake bracelets by Bochic. Megan Fox wore yellow gold and emerald earrings plus diamond and beaded emerald bangles by Amrapali.

Slumdog Millionaire's big winner of the evening Freida Pinto chose vintage yellow gold and diamond earrings and lace cuff bracelets by Lorraine Schwartz. Perhaps Eva Mendes made the greatest colored stone statement in a show stopping vintage turquoise and diamond necklace by Van Cleef and Arpels that added color to her all white Christian Dior gown. Tinseltown's leading men were not to be outdone. Blair Underwood sported diamond stud earrings by Neil Lane, diamond cufflinks by Siera and a striking Le Vian diamond watch. Others who followed suit included Kanye West in a diamond stud and cufflink set, Jay-Z in platinum, diamond and onyx cufflinks plus tie pin and the Jonas Brothers in platinum cufflinks and lapel pins, all by Neil Lane.
