Sofia Vergara, the sexpot of the hit TV show Modern Family, decided to up the ante last night at the 2013 Emmy Awards, sporting a fortune in accessories:

The star’s Lorraine Schwartz gems totaled 161 carats and added up to more than $7 million in major bling cha-ching. Those platinum earrings, set with rubies, sapphires and Colombian emeralds (a favorite of the star — and a nod to her home country) weighed in at a whopping 100 carats.

To make sure her fingers didn’t feel left out, she added a 40-carat Colombian emerald-and-diamond ring and a 21-carat Asscher-cut diamond ring.
