The Oscars were this week, so there was much bling to discuss!
I joined in on the INDESIGN.JEWELRY team’s #OscarJewelry coverage by spotlighting seven celebs whose jewels let me down on the red carpet and explaining what I wish they’d done differently.
I also have to point out that two different stars walked the red carpet in jewels I’ve featured here on Diamond in the Library: Whoopi Goldberg in Sevan Biçakçi’s octopus hand piece and Matt Damon in Van Cleef and Arpels’ Midnight Planetarium watch.
Here are the rest of the best of this week’s Oscars Jewelry posts:

As you know if you suffered through the telecast’s many weird, defensive jokes on this subject, the Oscars as an institution has been coming under a lot of criticism lately for lack of diversity.
Here are some great articles to read to brief you on the real and important issues behind the uncomfortable jokes:

You’ve shared really informative & graceful information about oscar jewelry. Please tell you more information about jewelry .
I want to tell you about my business we are offering rings, necklace include with different gemstones.
Hey!!! nice post…I checked in your blog first time and found it so nice and attractive. As I am in the gemstone market and like to know more about the people related to my field. I checked the home page that contains fantastic designs of the gemstone jewelry.
Thanks for including me Becky. And let’s hope some stylists read your story and we see some more color, personality and impact next year!
My pleasure! Your coverage was a delight to read, as always. And I second your wish – I live in hope that someday I’ll get a call from a red carpet stylist who says “I just realized I need your help!! Please tell me what to do.” No luck yet, though.
