Yes, I missed the Grammy’s this year. I didn’t see Lady Gaga hatch from an egg or feel the pain of scorned teenagers who thought Justin Bieber should have trounced Esperanza Spalding.
Luckily, I had a chance to see some of the magnificent jewelry worn on this semi-magical evening. Here are a few of my favorite highlights:
Alicia Keys wears "Sodwana" earrings by Diamonds in the Rough, 18K yellow gold set with rough diamonds in a medley of colors. The curved gold bars between larger gems are filled with micro pavé set diamonds.
Tia Carrere displaying diamond and yellow gold bracelets by Judith Ripka.
Heather Schmid's bracelet is reportedly a H. Stern design with diamonds set in 18K gold.
Jennifer Lopez looked amazing at the 2011 Grammy Awards in this Emilio Pucci silver mini dress, Christian Louboutin shoes, Cartier jewels and a Goa crystal clutch by Daniel Swarovski.
