Kate Beckinsale lights up the Oscars in Tacori Earrings

Kate Beckinsale in Tacori

There is no larger stage to make a fashion statement than the Red Carpet on Oscar night, which has stylewatchers all over the world  looking at who-wears-what to the Academy Awards to determine trends for everything from the hottest colors, the sexiest fabrics, cut and shapes of dresses, and of course, luxe jewels.

Style-wise, one notable gown trend was the departure from plunging or sweetheart necklines, which traditionally expose the neck, collar and décolletage of A-list actresses. This year, at the 83rd annual Academy Awards, many necklines trended instead towards full torso coverage, a la Amy Adams, Michelle Williams, Cate Blanchett and Scarlett Johansson.  This fresh styling left little room for necklaces, but instead, required jewels which could compliment this look – putting the emphasis squarely on spectacular earrings that could stand up to the column-like coverage of the floor-length (and full-coverage) glamour gowns.

And no stylemaker rocked this look better on the holiest of fashion nights than Kate Beckinsale, who glittered in a black sequined gown on the Red Carpet at the Vanity Fair Oscar party.   Beckinsale showed off her slender silhouette with spectacular architectural platinum and diamond earrings from Tacori, spotlighted by an elegant ponytail updo that exposed the glittering baubles.

Proof positive that simple geometry can produce rich effects, these hexagonally shaped earrings are a one-of-a-kind design, hand selected for Kate Beckinsale’s stunning ensemble.   With over 8 carats of brilliant cut diamonds illuminating her ears, the “Underworld” star sparkled in strong statement jewelry, showing that oversized earrings are a classic way to add glamour.

Charming Channel-Set Diamonds

February 24th, 2011

Channel Set Ring

Channel Set Ring

A channel setting is a method whereby stones are suspended between two bars or strips of metal, called channels. This type of setting accentuates the small diamonds inlaid into the band of engagement rings and provides a “channel” where the precious diamonds will lay.  Channel settings offer a sleek, elegant appearance, adding extra shine to any dreamy engagement ring.

From the ‘Simply Tacori’ collection, this unique design highlights the graduating channel-set diamonds that lay beautifully on the shoulders of this brilliant beauty.  For the Tacori girl who radiates timeless elegance, this is the flawless stunner every girl has been waiting for.  She is glamorous and driven, and this ring is her match as much as you are: streamlined, channel-set diamond baguettes complement the look of a classic diamond solitaire with an art-deco edge.  This ring not only sparkles from the aerial view, but the intricate laid diamonds in the crescent silhouettes that line the sides of the headstone create an exceptionally stellar ring for the ages.

Emerald & Diamond Delight

Emerald Diamond Ring

Emerald Diamond Ring

The emerald cut diamond is a very popular style known for its beauty and precision.  What makes this shape unique is its pavilion – the section of the diamond below the girdle – which is cut with rectangular facets to create a unique optical appearance.  And due to its larger, open table at the top of the stone and step-cut facets highlight the clarity of an Emerald cut diamond from the top view.

For the girl who loves an Emerald cut with a big “ten table look”, this glamorous head turner is sure to sparkle from every angle, and from 10 tables away!  The diamond accents on the shoulders create a unique transformation of design with astonishing shine that blends classic glamour with bold distinctive detail.  And to add even more sparkle to this emerald cut ring, a crown of diamonds enhances and lights up the center stone with tapered baguettes illuminating the graceful profile and signature Tacori crescent design details.

Step it up with this luxurious emerald stunner, and your Tacori will be noticed from 10 tables away!
