MATTAR JEWELERS NATURAL PEARL SCARF REVIEW 5/5 (1)

Take a look at this unique pearl scarf. It’s 500 grams of natural pearls! Something I discovered while in Bahrain at Mattar Jewelers, a leader in the natural pearl trade. The Mattar Scarf is a wonder to behold. A passionate endeavour, considering it would take a lifetime to collect this many pearls of the same size and colour. But Mattar Jewelers has many years of collecting light cream, Nibati pearls and have created a one-of-a-kind pearl scarf. Offset with 78 carats of rubies, 80 carats of emeralds and 62 carats of diamonds, it is just priceless. Absolutely breathtaking and an honour to wear.

Never been done before, this pearl scarf was something of a challenge because there are only 25 pearls of commercial value for every 10 thousand oysters. To find so many matching pearls of this quality is almost impossible, but Mattar Jewelers pulled it off and knew they had to make something magnificent, and above all – unique.

GEMOLOGUE SCORE 

A masterful design, the pearl scarf had to be light enough to be comfortable to wear. Just the stringing of the pearls alone took 72 hours. The Mattar Scarf is a true treasure. To get into the spirit of Bahrain, I am wearing 30 meters of pearls in my hair and my face is made up with blue flowers. It’s my take on the dress code among Saudi guests during my visit to Jewellery Arabia.

Jewelry Trend: Delicate Shoulder Duster Earrings

Move over, statement earrings. We’re over the bulky ear accessories and onto our new favorite trend: delicate shoulder duster earrings. This resurfaced trend is just as hot and fashionable, and while it isn’t anything new, it’s definitely this red carpet season’s premium choice.

These long earrings softly graze the neck or shoulder of the wearer. Instead of chunky pieces with bold details, delicate chains with simple silhouettes have been taking over the spotlight. The elongated design of these earrings frames the face and neck beautifully. Shoulder dusters can be too overwhelming if they are too hefty, but delicate renditions are just perfect to add an ounce of sexiness to your outfit.

Jennifer Lopez Receives $100,000 Tiffany Necklace from Drake

It looks like the Drake and Jennifer Lopez love affair is heating up even more. J. Lo posted another controversial photo on Instagram, where it seemed like she was contemplating her plans for the new year. The sexy Latina singer was wearing several pieces of sparkling diamond jewelry, including a single strand Tiffany diamond necklace that was peeking through her thick fur coat.

Several reports have confirmed that the necklace is from rumored boyfriend Drake, who has been known to spoil his women with jewelry. According to sources, the “Hotline Bling” singer gave the necklace as a gift for New Year’s Eve.

Our favorite standout pieces of Golden Globes jewelry

We were positively surprised with the collection of jewelry that we spotted at the 74th Annual Golden Globe Awards. While we were eagerly anticipating the glamorous bling and expensive baubles that are always present at these shows, there were several unconventional accessory choices that grabbed our attention as well.

Here are six lovely ladies who wore standout jewelry pieces at the Golden Globe Awards.

1. Blake Lively

Blake Lively is always a shoo-in for best dressed because this girl has impeccable style. She accentuated her glamorous Versace dress with stunning emerald cuffs on both wrists. Check out the huge stones on those bracelets!

2. Tracee Ellis Ross

Tracee Ellis Ross looked good on the red carpet, yes, but she also seemed to be genuinely enjoying her time. The “Blackish” star rocked a very ornate look, which was decorated with diamond rings on every single finger. The luxe mixture of rings are combination Noudar, L’Dezen by Payal Shah, YEPREM and Kavant & Sharart Jewelry.

3. Ruth Negga

Ruth Negga donned a custom Louis Vuitton armor-inspired gown and topped it with a vintage 1920s Fred Leighton cuff bracelet, which featured a gorgeous ethically-sourced 24 carat ruby. Major points for the touch of social responsibility.

4. Sienna Miller

The lovely Sienna Miller went for a simple but sophisticated look. She wore a cutout Michael Kors Collection dress and accessorized with a gorgeous set of pearls from Tiffany & Co. Pearls aren’t really a typical jewelry choice for an awards show, but Sienna made this look classic and glamorous.

5. Michelle Williams

Michelle Williams displayed her love for edgy and fashion-forward looks with a stunning lace Louis Vuitton gown. Instead of diamonds, Michelle opted to style her dress with a simple ribbon choker. While the unconventional accessory could have been hard to pull off — especially for a black tie event — this fashionista completely nailed the look.

6. Natalie Portman

Natalie Portman was the epitome of maternity chic in her canary yellow embroidered Prada dress. The cherry on top was Natalie’s Tiffany & Co. fringe earrings, which reportedly cost $135,000. The beautiful pair of earrings are vintage pieces from 1910, making them more than a century old.

GYPSY JEWELRY RUSTIC POMEGRANATE NECKLACE REVIEW 5/5 (2)

The pomegranate holds strong symbolic meaning for many cultures and is recognised as the fruit of fertility, abundance and marriage. As a thoughtful housewarming gift, the pomegranate is a wonderful way to add some seasonal colour to your home and make your well-travelled friends feel at home.

To make my Jewish guests feel welcome this season and to celebrate Chrismukkah (Christmas and Hanukkah that fell on the same day this year), I used real pomegranates and pomegranate sculptures as the centrepiece of my rustic table at my London home.

After Christmas, Maldives was my home for an unforgettable 10 days. This rustic pomegranate necklace – Bless this Home by Gypsy Jewelry – a distinctive and expressive design, transformed me into a Gypsy Woman with a spirit for adventure. The pomegranate in this gorgeous necklace has a traditional, rustic design and is in good company with the ladybug perched on the leaf of the fruit, a positive omen and good luck for the home.

What kind of talisman do you use to bring good luck to your home? Tell me in the comments below.

This pomegranate necklace by Gypsy Jewelry possesses such rich symbolism and a striking style, it inspires me to experiment and express my passion for travel, culture and history. In the sunlight, the dyed-jade seeds glisten like the real thing and you want to touch them to see if you can eat them! Delicious! It is my talisman for this day in the Maldives and I feel truly blessed. With a long chain, Bless this Home Pomegranate Necklace from Gypsy Jewelry looks amazing with my Missoni swimming suit.

Handcrafted in Istanbul, each Bless this Home pomegranate necklace is oxidised to achieve Gypsy Jewelry’s signature antique look and this distinctive colour of gold. Rustic with traditional charm, Bless this Home pomegranate necklace captures Istanbul’s rich culture and history and uses age-old craftsmanship from the 16th century Ottoman Era. It all starts with a mould and some molten brass to create the base for the jewel, which is then hand polished and gold plated all ready for the oxidation process. Then the beautiful stones are added to finish this rustic necklace off to perfection.

Bless this Home Pomegranate Necklace from Gypsy Jewelry is available online for $195
