Sienna Miller Poses for Piaget

Jewelry hounds, let's forget about our dreary lives for a moment shall we and enter the delightful dream scape that is actress Sienna Miller's day-to-day.

She's a glamorous movie star (with the bank account to match). She's dating the hunky Jude Law. Again. She's got that 'skinny without trying' thing going for her. And now? She has her pick of Piaget Possession jewelry as their new spokesmodel.

You can go ahead now and:

a) roll your eyes
b) do your best 'vomit in your mouth' impression
c) spontaneously start those double chin exercises
d) all of the above

To commemorate 20 years of their popular Possession Collection, Piaget picked the scrumptious Sienna to star in a series of iconic photographs wearing the classic jewels. Leaving no stone unturned, they assembled an A-list team of fashion industry professionals for a major photo shoot at Hudson Studios in New York, including legendary photographer, Raymond Meier, and renowned stylist and regular Vogue contributor, Elissa Santisi.

The first photo in the series is displayed above with two more to follow in the coming months, according to a press release, so stay tuned.

Mariah Carey's Ring Pop Bling

As yet another celebrity couple pretends to profess their undying love for one another in a vow renewal ceremony, there's really one explanation for the trend: it's an excuse to buy more diamonds.

From Heidi Klum & Seal to Tori & Dean, vow renewal ceremonies are all the rage in Hollywood - but it was Nick Cannon & Mariah Carey's re-walk down the aisle last month that brought out bling worthy of a lower jaw drop moment.

We all remember the 17-carat pink diamond engagement ring Nick gave to the diva - now she has a sparkling pink candy ring to match. The custom-made ring pop bling from Jason of Beverly Hills is made out of diamonds and pink sapphires in a white gold setting and comes in a special box with a spinner so Miss Mariah can see it sparkle under the lights. Wheeeee!!!

"This is for fun. This is what we do for toys. At some point you've gotta have a sense of humor about all of this. A sense of humor with diamonds," Nick explained.

I'm laughing on the inside, Nick.

What do you guys think of this 'vow renewal' trend? And how about that 'candy' ring??

Emerald: May’s Symbol of Spring

If April birthday girls have it best with the diamond as their designated birthstone, May certainly comes in a close second.

The emerald is May’s birthstone, and if you’ve been following the red carpet the past few years, you’ll notice stars like Angelina Jolie and Julianne Moore are making us all green with envy as they bring the bauble back into the spotlight.

Emerald is a green variety of the mineral, beryl, and has been prized for thousands of years for its lush green hues and rare beauty. Throughout the ancient world, emerald symbolized eternal hope, rebirth and the arrival of spring - and some cultures believed the gem rewarded its owners with love, intelligence and eloquence.

The ancients ascribed numerous magical and mystical properties to this precious green gem. In ancient Rome, for example, emeralds were believed to have a soothing effect on the soul. Modern scientists have since shown this myth to have some basis in fact: tests indicate that the human eye is more sensitive to green than any other color.

Middle Age seers used emeralds to foretell the future, as well as to ward off evil spirits and cure ailments ranging from bad eyesight to infertility. The stone was also said to improve memory and bring great wealth to its wearer.

Derived from the Latin word for green, "smaragdus", emerald is also the traditional gift of choice for couples celebrating their 20th and 35th wedding anniversaries.

The finest emeralds have traditionally come from Colombia; both the Incas and Aztecs mined rich emerald deposits in the rugged Andes Mountains. But Russia's Ural Mountains also have produced top-quality gems. Brazil is by far the world's largest producer of emerald, with a wide range of sizes and quality.

Emerald's precious green color is caused by small amounts of chromium and enhanced by traces of iron. Emeralds come in a variety of light and dark shades - often with subtle background hues of other colors like yellow, blue, brown or gray. Generally, the purer and richer the green, the more valuable the emerald.

The gem ranks 7.5-8 on the Mohs hardness scale. This means that emerald, while relatively hard, can still be scratched, chipped or split fairly easily. Most emeralds have numerous flaws, or "inclusions", which weaken their structure. Flawless emeralds are exceptionally rare, and therefore command great prices (in some instances, higher than diamonds).

Take that April!
