SAG Awards Spark New Trends and Some We Hope Don't Catch On...

Depending on who you follow the reports of trends change...I love to gather those trends and add a few of my own...

Jewelry Trend #1 - My friend Nikki Ostin over at the Platinum Guild sent a Trend Alert for Platinum Statement Necklaces...

Marion Cotillard, Jessica Chastain, Helen Hunt, and Jennifer Lawrence were spotted wearing major statement necklaces set in PLATINUM at the "19th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards" tonight in Los Angeles.

Hollywood’s leading actresses choose to showcase their jewels in naturally white platinum settings that truly enhance the brilliance of diamonds and colored gemstones. Platinum is the ideal choice for life’s most unforgettable moments.

I want to call out another Platinum Necklace - Amanda Seyfried looked amazing in her long platinum pendant necklace by Lorraine Schwartz.  

I would call this a statement necklace...what do you think? 

BRAVA to Amanda and/or her Stylist for proving that long works with strapless!!!

...and of course we are all hoping for the Necklace Trend to continue!


Jewelry Trend #2 -  Jade - this one was called out by Cheryl Kremkow of Citrine Media, you may know her as @Kremkow...

Fashion Trend - The Fashion Editors are talking about the subtle shift from Black to Midnight Blue important to Jewelers - just think about all the Sapphire opportunities...

...other Fashion Trends like the high leg slit and corseted bodices continue - but this is not a Fashion blog.

So - are you wondering about the Trend "We Hope Doesn't Catch On"?   take a good look at Jessica Chastain and Morena Baccarin, two of my favorite looks...almost.   Only one piece of jewelry?  SERIOUSLY?  ...OK Morena did rock a great brooch in her hair but no earrings, bracelets, necklaces or rings?
