Live Tweet the Emmy Red Carpet

It's been a long, hot summer - and FINALLY an awards show is on the calendar this Sunday.

The 62nd Prime Time Emmy awards will bring out television's brightest stars and (hopefully) blingiest baubles. With Mad Men mavens, True Blood vixens, Glee gals... and Ryan Seacrest on the agenda, what's not to love?

So join me on Twitter with the tag #emmyjewelry starting from the E! red carpet telecast all the way to the starting bell. Don't make me sit through Ryan and Guiliana's schtick alone, tweeple!

Anna Paquin's Wedding Ring Revealed!

Sookie Stackhouse (aka Anna Paquin) said 'I do' to her favorite vampire, Stephen 'SSSSooookie No!" Moyer this weekend in a Malibu wedding fit for all creatures alive and undead.

Her wedding ring was spotted by the paps today as she flitted about town running errands with her mom. The vintage style was custom-made by jeweler Cathy Waterman, who also designed Moyer's simple wedding band (spotted here while he was skateboarding in LA).

Vampires skateboard?

Vintage diamond engagement rings must be popular with the blood-thirsty set. This vintage style was designed by Twilight author, Stephanie Meyer, as a replica of the ring Edward gives to Bella in the series.


To get a live glimpse of Anna's rocks, the happy couple will be presenting at the 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards Sunday with True Blood costar Alexander Skarsgard. (Come tweet with me and a bunch of other fab jewelry bloggers during the red carpet shenanigans - using #emmyjewelry hashtag)

Here's hoping they all come out like this!

Jewelry Trend Alert: Bug Jewelry

Fall jewelry trends this year are full of creative wiggle room for the accessory-obsessed like yours truly. We've already covered the statement ring (like this one on Drew Barrymore at her Going The Distance movie premiere):

Another must-have look for the season involves all things creepy and crawly - insect jewelry. Call it Kafka couture, if you will.

New York Magazine featured Sea of Shoes' new funky beetle-inspired jewelry this week, and JCK Magazine reports jewelry designers at the Feninjer Fair in Brazil are showing everything from green and blue gemstone butterflies to styles incorporating beetle wings.

So how to wear these buggy little baubles?

I love the brooch idea, like this scarab style from Zales.



And spiders are always cool, especially if they're made out of black and white diamonds.



And if the darker side of bug life isn't up your alley, there's always the happy-go-lucky bumble bee, like this collection from kate spade.




The possibilities are endless, which is why I kinda love this new trend. What do you guys think? Would you wear winged creatures to the workplace?
