2010 Emmys

{pc}

That bracelet is to die for. It's a champagne and white 80-carat diamond platinum cuff by Lorraine Schwartz. Drool.

{pc}

Amazing necklace. Stunning. And the ring she wore was seriously kickass.

{pc}

Both pieces are by Lorraine Schwartz.

 

{pc}

That color. I loove this chrysoprase and diamond Irene Neuwirth set.

{pc}

A lot of people didn't like Anna Paquin's dress - I loved it. And also her arm candy is pretty damn beautiful. Oh, yeah, I mean the bracelets.

{pc}

The bracelets are all from House of Lavande, and AP's lovely new wedding band is by Cathy Waterman.

{pc}

Not so sure about this pose, but how can you not love Lauren Graham? Gilmore Girls forever! And check out those bracelets - so cool.

{pc}

I really wanted Lea Michelle to pull her hair back, but other than that, she looked stunning. And the platinum and diamond Lorraine Schwartz necklace didn't hurt.

{pc}

This might have been my favorite dress of the nite. I sure hope I look like Kyra Sedgwick when I'm her age. She's got fabulous taste! Her bracelets were by Ofira, and were so cool and unexpected.

Hmm.

So far, that's all I have to say about the Temple St. Clair Collection at Target.....Hmmmm.....

It's a little too sweet for my taste. And I'm not understanding the color choices. But apparently it's really popular, because it's almost completely sold out online!

This is my favorite piece of the Temple St. Clair collection:

Pomegranate Necklace, sold out!

What do you think? Hit or miss?

McGowan and McClain is the brainchild of two cousins, Marian and Laura Jones. After they both became classically trained in metals and jewelry, they started McGowan and McClain in October 2008.

And now you have a chance to win one of their beautiful pieces!

This is a blue chalcedony druzy with tanzanite and grey quartz faceted beads on an 18k vermeil chain, and retails for $230.

Isn't it gorgeous?

All you need to do to be entered to win is visit their Etsy store and leave a comment on this post. If you'd like additional entries, you can tweet, blog or facebook about this giveaway; just leave a comment with the link.
