Longtime readers here will know that I’m a big fan of the blingy, showy jewelry we get to see each year at the Academy Awards. While I’m not doing comprehensive Oscars jewelry coverage this year—not getting enough sleep at the moment for that!—I’m going to feature some pieces that I particularly liked this year. First up: a gorgeous emerald necklace on a young American singer.
Tomorrow, we’ll see members of the royal family attending the annual Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey. Yesterday, we looked back at some of the jewels that Queen Camilla has worn for the event, and today, we’ve got a retrospective of the jewels worn by the Princess of Wales for the service.
