    Simply Divine: Tiffany Vine Sapphire and Diamond Bracelet

    image
    Ida Hsiang on Sep 9, 2009 7:22 AM PDT
    Tiffany celebrates nature's patterns of intricate beauty with tender vines of 355 round and marquise diamonds that form a winding path through 441 perfectly matched sapphires. In fact, the exquisite stones began their journey long before, at the stonecutter's bench. In a feat of skill and precision, Tiffany stonecutters painstakingly cut each diamond that was then bead set in platinum, and hand carved each sapphire to fit the complex channel setting. The result captures the graceful movement of vines blooming against a midnight sky. $195,000 (ouch!) at Tiffany & Co.

    Style Steal: Get Angelina Jolie's Dazzling Oscar Jewelry Look

    A priceless stud hanging from your wrist and some priceless stones hanging from your heavenly-constructed head could only mean one thing: you're Angelina Jolie. While it may be difficult to nab a studly look-a-like like Brad Pitt, one fashion must-have can be mimicked. As if an appearance by the Brangelina duo at the Academy Awards wasn't enough to turn heads, Angelina stole the red-carpet with a bit of ear candy: her 115 carat Lorraine Schwartz Colombian emerald drop earrings that have been estimated to be valued in the high millions of dollars. The boldly shaped and colored jewels peeking out from her long flowing hair formed a fashion statement that will be remembered for many Oscar nights to come. Her already elegant look, premised with a premium choice black Elie Saab gown, was brought to a whole new level of movie-star mogul-dom with the pair of deep, piercing green gemstones- plain-jane black never looked quite so, uh, un-plain. Click the slideshow to see some style picks that follow Jolie's jewelry look at prices that are ... less than millions.

    If you loved mandarin oranges as a kid (or heck, if you still do!), the bright-orange spessartine garnets aptly named mandarin garnets will surely appeal to your grown-up lust for juicy goodness. Although spessartine garnets, the parent classification to which mandarins belong, have been found in places as far-flung as Kenya, Brazil, and Australia, the Fanta-coloured mandarin variety is found only in Namibia. Mandarin garnets are continuing to gain popularity with jewelry consumers, whether paired with white or yellow metal, and are beloved of retail jewelers and indie designers alike. You may not be able to squeeze juice from a stone, but the brilliant colour of these striking jewels just might make you think you could! Check out some hivelicious examples of jewelry featuring this yummy gem in my SLIDESHOW.
