Each month, I compile National Jeweler's "Star Sightings" page, a selection of images highlighting the jewelry celebrities are wearing on the red carpets and out and about. It's a fun, easy-to-digest page, but it also has a serious impetus: providing readers with information about the most au courant trends.
As a consumer, I definitely do my share of tearing out pages from magazines and taking style tips from editorials and the celebrities chronicled in the publications I pick up. Recently, I spent some time in Los Angeles scoping out the behind-the-scenes of how jewelry makes it onto the red carpet and into those very magazines.
If you haven't already had a chance, check out "Access Jewelry" on NationalJeweler.com for the inside scoop. Below you'll find the accompanying photos.

Among the biggest trends seen on the red carpets and easily imitable for every day are stacked bracelets and hoop earrings. Angelina Jolie wore 22-karat yellow gold hoops to the 14th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles, as did Halle Berry at the British Film Institute’s London Film Festival. Berry also stacked her 22-karat yellow gold bangles high and topped off the look with a 22-karat gold ring. All jewelry is from Amrapali. Photos: Courtesy of D’Orazio and Associates
