The Golden Globes Red Carpet: Heidi's Diamond Locket

FabSugar — Wed, 17 Jan 2007 08:28:03 -0800

Check out the set of diamonds on Heidi! Heidi Klum looks like a glowing Grecian Goddess, just six weeks after the birth of her third baby, Johan. She arrived at the Golden Globes wearing a gorgeous Givenchy gown, Givenchy gloves and Christian Louboutin shoes.

Even decked out in all of these high end designers, her own necklace design was the real show stopper. Her stunning 950 diamond and platinum choker featured a heart-shaped detachable locket made from 5.74 carats of diamonds. The choker also contained 208 carats of diamonds and totalled an astonishing combined carat weight of 213.74.

This necklace is part of the Heidi Klum Collection for Mouawad specifically designed for the 2007 Golden Globe Awards Show and is said to cost a whopping one million dollars. Looks like Heidi could be the next jeweler to the stars. Look out Lorraine Schwartz!

Lorraine Schwartz Dazzling Diamonds, Part I

FabSugar — Tue, 16 Jan 2007 09:34:41 -0800

Look at all of the lavish bling on these lovely leading ladies last night. Thanks to jeweler of the stars, Lorraine Schwartz, beauties such as: Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce and Sarah Paulson arrived decked out in drop dead gorgeous diamonds and rare stones.

Lorraine has been decorating celebs in her decadent designs for the past decade, but really began to make her mark over the past two years. We first heard about her at the 2006 VMAs when she bedazzled Beyonce and Jessica Simpson in exquisite bracelets, rings and earrings. Oh, and who could forget that outrageously gorgeous necklace that Christina Aguilera wore!

Unfortunately, Lorraine does not have an online store, but you can call her directly at (646) 274-2008 for an appointment if you live in or plan to visit New York City. Her showroom is located at 580 5th Avenue by 47th Street, in NYC's famous diamond district.

She was also adorned in a yellow brushed gold cuff, a canary emerald cut diamond platinum ring that totalled 30 carats for two million dollars and a yellow gold rose cut diamond ring.

Beyonce Knowles wore a pair of 40 carat natural iridescent diamond earrings worth $195,000, as well as an aged ivory and natural color diamond cuff worth $120,000 and a 20 carat, grey and yellow diamond cocktail ring worth $90,000. Wowsers!

Sarah Paulson wore a stunning pair of white jade earrings made from 18k yellow gold and yellow diamonds worth $85,000. She also wore multiple 18k white and yellow gold diamond caviar bangle bracelets each worth $75,000 as well as a beautiful jade diamond bangle bracelet worth $20,000.

Golden Globe Awards: Bring On the Bling

FabSugar — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 13:00:22 -0800

No red carpet is ever complete without major bling. You better believe that the ladies who attended last night's Golden Globes did some major borrowing of jewels. Lorraine Schwartz, Chopard, Cartier, and Fred Leighton were the main suppliers. What did they supply? Why, blitzed-out bangles, ginormous teardrop earrings, diamond necklaces, and so much more. Eva Mendes chose to dazzle her neck with a Van Cleef & Arpels turquoise choker. Isn't it amazing? Check out more awe-inspiring jewelry from last night's star-studded affair.

FabSugar Exclusive: Rachel Zoe, The Morning After

FabSugar — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 13:01:50 -0700

Thrilling. That best describes The Rachel Zoe Project premiere last night. The glamour, the gowns, the jewels, the tension - I knew I would be hooked the second time around, what about you? Last night we witnessed the countdown to the Golden Globes, saw Team Zoe's new studio, met some new staff, and bit our nails over the lost pink Chanel haute couture dress. Or was that just me and Rachel? I caught up with the stylist extraordinaire this morning for some coffee talk. We mostly gushed about the gorgeous gowns on last night's show, but we also chatted Brad and Taylor. Here's last night's rehash . . .

Eva's white Dior was my favorite from this year's awards season. It wasn't on the runway, how did you find it?

"The PR people sent me photos even though it wasn't sent down the runway. I'll know that Eva has something coming up, I call it a check note. That necklace is probably my favorite piece of jewelry - ever. When I worked with Keira Knightley for the Oscars in '06, there was this vintage Bulgari piece and this brought that memory back to me. There's nothing like an incredible blob of turquoise. It's a dream scenario."

Speaking of jewelry, how did emeralds call out to you for Debra's navy Vera Wang?

"I love to see color. I don't want to do anything expected, or odd. The idea of emeralds with the navy is a younger, modern way to make something glamorous. You don't need diamonds for glamour. I love mixing colors, the less perfect the better."

To read about asking Karl to alter the Chanel and for some Brad and Taylor scoop,

Cameron's pink Chanel - have you asked designer's to alter before? Just not Karl? Why were you so nervous?

"Yes, I have, but Karl Lagerfeld is up there with my three heroes of all time. When you ask to make a change to an already-brilliant design, it's scary. What if it doesn't work? At the end of the day Cameron is my priority. I want to do what's politically correct, but also what's best for my client. You weigh your odds there. It was scary. Had he said no, I would have had to move on. The worst he could say is no."

New studio? Upgrade! And more staff?

"We actually have two studios now. One for the digital side of my business (The Zoe Report). We're growing Rachel Zoe Inc. And Jordan (the intern) and Marisa (Zoe's assistant). Poor Marisa is so innocent, she's the golden child of the group. She helps balance it out. Brad provides a lot of comic relief, when I'm having a really tense moment, Brad makes me laugh at it all."

It appears Brad and Taylor are getting along better. When they moved the desks downstairs, they banded together as brats. It was funny to see that banter.

"They are, but trust me they still have their moments. And they banter, for better or for worse."

When they talk about you, how does it make you feel?

"Brad isn't really built that way. It's more important to me that they get along with one another than they get pleasure out of making fun of me or patronizing me. If they weren't doing their jobs the way they do, they wouldn't be there. I wouldn't put up with it. We all know where we stand with one another. I compare it to a real family. You take abuse and you make up as if nothing ever happened. Or we don't even make up and just move on. They are so loyal."

It seems this season is going to get heavy with Taylor questioning her loyalty.

"Oh yeah. She'll be doing all season what she did last night. She's bored to tears, but she's not going to complain. But you do see a lighter side of Taylor. She's not programmed that way. I prefer she is who she is on camera, and not pretending to be something she's not. She has a heart of gold, I promise you that." Photo courtesy of Bravo

SAG Awards Red Carpet: My A-List & B-List

FabSugar — Mon, 29 Jan 2007 15:26:57 -0800

Overall, I was disappointed by last night's SAG red carpet style. I was hoping since it was the awards show amongst the actors and their Hollywood peers, people would have a bit more fun with their choices. Save the gorgeous gowns for the Oscars and raise the hemlines and work the colors for the SAGs! Here is my A-List & B-List:

A-List

Diane Kruger stopped me in my tracks last night. I didn't post a poll about it, and the more I see this Christian Dior asymmetrical champagne sequined dress the more I love it! Her hair looks great, very natural and off her face, to showcase her natural, goddess glow. Her makeup made her facial features appear very strong, and she exudes confidence. Her cleavage was pretty, but not in-your face, and her skin was perfection. Quite the beauty, Joshua Jackson is a lucky guy!

While I really want to see something more modern and possibly with a higher hemline on her, I thought Katherine Heigl was a ray of sunshine on the red carpet. This one shoulder gown hugged her curvaceous figure, the draping was fantastic, and the bright tangerine color was killer. Her golden locks were bouncy and bright, in classic Veronica Lake style, and her dark eyeliner created an air of mystique. We know she can do blonde bombshell, can she do anything else?

This was a hard decision for me but I think Sandra Oh is glowing in this strapless Armani cream lace princess gown. She just looks like she's having so much fun and makes me want to twirl around in that dress too! I know some of you thought her black pin was weird, but I think it breaks up the pattern - though maybe a belt would have been better. I love the pulled back black curls and her daring red lips. Oh Sandra, brava!

B-List

I cannot begin to explain how many things are wrong here. Rachel McAdams what are you doing?! Are you so blinded by love you have thrown any personal style by the wayside? Here is my tisk tisk list: feathered hair with controversial highlights, white dress with pale ass skin, white pumps with white dress, and lame red carpet poses. And the dress? Was simply too big on her, and aren't we all over white after the Golden Globes? Sorry cutie pie.

Did anyone else think that Ellen Pompeo looked like an alien? Her Lanvin eggplant adorned neck gown would have been fab if worn with less severe hair and minimal jewelry but she loaded on the theatrics. I know it's the red carpet, where drama applies, but she overdosed on it. This was all just too much for her small frame.

Here is Eva Longoria looking as short as ever. Really, this grey Vera Wang gown with an asymmetrical flower rosette detail, shrinks her already petite frame. She had to have some high heels on underneath there but this gown just did not flatter her figure. The draping is also a bit off at the bottom, making it look like a pool of fabric spilled on either side of her. And her makeup: enough with the super long false eyelashes and hair extensions. Can you be less fake next time Eva?

The Grammys Red Carpet: Jennifer Hudson

FabSugar — Sun, 11 Feb 2007 17:33:02 -0800

Jennifer Hudson is certainly Queen of The Red Carpet this awards season! I have to say that I liked her Golden Globes look much better, but she looks great here as well. She is wearing a Roberto Cavalli dress and Neil Lane jewelry. What do you think?
