Trend Alert: Diamond & Onyx Jewelry

FabSugar — Fri, 19 Jan 2007 04:55:12 -0800

I have an (old) pair of petite, square shaped onyx studs; I wear them when I'm feeling a bit dark and moody. But what is missing from my studs to be of-the-now? Diamonds! Life & Style demonstrates this jewelry trend in this week's issue. Maybe I can achieve this trendy diamond & onyx jewelry look if I wear my diamond studs in my second ear hole? Aha! This dark, icey jewelry look is art deco in nature, and a bit street - I'm definitely into it. Check out my designer and non designer finds:

David Yurman Onyx/Diamond Ring, $875.

Banana Republic chunky labradorite and smoky quartz necklace,
$88.

The Perfect Everyday Gold Necklace

I have always had a love/hate relationship with gold. For the past several years, I thought it was terribly uncool and more something that my mom and grandmother would wear, but now gold is hot hot hot and I am all over it. The great thing is that I now realize that gold is truly timeless. Not too long ago we showed some bold gold jewelry and now I'd like to showcase the other end of the spectrum: perfect everyday gold necklaces. These are sweet, functional necklaces that can be worn solo or layered with other favorite pieces. They aren't too long or large, they are just perfect. The great thing about this style is you can make a subtle statement, whether about your personality or politics. Enjoy my designer and non-designer picks below.
