Jewellery at Golden Globe Awards 2009

This is the only reason I watch this show. Every year, the Hollywood Hotties try to outdo each other by the dresses, bags, shoes and jewellery that they wear. This year, I saw great looking pieces but I am disappointed when some stars dress down in the bling bling department.

My favorite is this turquoise necklace that Eva Mendez wore. OOOOHH, I love it to pieces!




The next one on my fave list is this super brilliant, 3 row diamond necklace on Elizabeth Banks. Sigh..... But, I am not really liking her hair. But she's sweet, I guess. I think her necklace is too VAVAVAVOOM for her total sweet 16 look.




I am really bothered by the wrinkles on the side of Christina Applegate's eyes but with a necklace like this.....also, check out the fancy colored yellow diamond earrings. Super!




I think these earrings are stunning but too heavy. Kate Beckinsale must have had a headache after an hour of wearing it. I also think that it would have been much better if they were rubies instead of garnet. But she carried it well. Love her dress.



Even if it brought your eyes automatically on Beyonce's neck, this Lorraine Schwartz piece was more "WOW. look at all those diamonds" rather than, "HOLY MOLY, check out the intricacy of that work!" But nevertheless, it still breathtaking.

The Diamonds of India.



I have always loved Indian jewellery. Perhaps it is the details that go into it that makes it so stunning. Even if the finish is a bit crude, I still am able to find beauty in that flaw. The flat cut diamonds and silver blackened metal with gold backing even ads something special to it, making it look vintage. I am sure that there are hundreds of designs similar or even better than the ones I am posting but this is very attractive to me.



This bangle was mine until I sold it to a good friend. Ruby cabochon of about 12 carats and rose cut diamonds mounted in silver and gold. I miss it so but I know that she is in good hands, or should I say wrists (hihi).


This baby (except for the ruby bangle) is for sale at Jul B. Dizon Jewellery, Peninsula branch. But before you text me for the price, please allow me to wear it for a wedding on Sunday. After that, it's first come, first served. And that's the way the diamond crumbles. (Actually, they don't, crumble I mean. But I thought it was a good ending, so there.)
