Since its foundation, however, some things have changed. For example, in the last two years Sutra has introduced the use of jewelry ceramics in its pieces: a choice that has expanded the number of combinations of materials used. However, alongside the gold and ceramics, the intensely colored gems remained, together with the geometric textures that recall art deco style mandalas. A style that embraces Western taste, but with oriental grace and meticulousness in the creation of jewellery.

Jacquie Aiche’s new boho-chic jewels

With an Egyptian father, but born in the USA, Jacquie Aiche is a strange mix of hippie culture (she also organizes yoga classes in her boutique), boho-chic and luxury. She loves hammered gold according to Middle Eastern influences, but also amulets, an informal approach, long and thin necklaces, hard and colored stones, like those of her latest creations. And many celebrities love her, starting with Rihanna, who years ago chose to wear (also) her jewelry and launched this designer who works in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, the right place to have customers flocking to newspapers and websites. websites dedicated to entertainment and gossip.

Her success, however, is above all the result of her ability to combine a cheerful and unconventional spirit with luxury. And that’s part of her attitude: when she was eight, she told, she painted small rocks that she sold to neighbors. Then, she decided to go into fashion and enrolled at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising in Los Angeles. She worked a bit in the fashion industry, in her family’s Sunset Boulevard fashion boutique, until she realized that the thing she did best was making jewelry. She loves opals, tourmalines and turquoise, which accompany the gold threads with small diamonds. In addition to classic jewelry, rings, necklaces, earrings and bracelets, she has also designed body ornaments to be worn around the hips or small chains that follow the outline of a bra.

A Lot of star for Anita Ko

New jewels by Anita Ko, designer for Hollywood stars or for those who can afford it: her collections are not for everyone.

Anita Ko is a jewelry designer born in Los Angeles, where she lives and works. Since she has good creativity and works in the Hollywood star system area, she has many clients among the big names in the show business. Among the actresses and singers who have worn her jewels are Victoria Beckham, Rosie Huntington-Whitley, Jennifer Lawrence, Cameron Diaz, Emma Watson, Miranda Kerr, Jessica Biel, Johnny Depp, Heidi Klum and Rihanna. And to say that Anita Ko is a new entry: she only founded her jewelry company in 2006, not even ten years ago. Her jewels focus heavily on the intense color of pink gold and on a myriad of diamonds that follow the path of the metal as if they were luxury studs. They can also be purchased online.

Orecchinio a forma di spilla da balia in oro rosa e rubini
Safety pin-shaped earring in rose gold and rubies

The jewelry style is modern, simple, geometric, immediate, luxurious, symmetrical, allusive. In the sense that in some cases it translates into jewels composed of a mosaic of diamonds, for example with a baguette cut, common shapes such as leaves, or a simple safety pin that turns into a single earring in gold and precious stones. In short, quite funny, without being bizarre, pleasant without being cloying. Perhaps this is the key to her success.

Wwake’s light philosophy

Rihanna wore a Wwake necklace to the Grammys a few years ago. She was a surprise especially for Wing Yau, a Vancouver-born designer who works and lives in Brooklin, New York. Her small, but now well-established Maison specializes in small, light and refined jewels, which have met with success above all among young women. In reality, however, the designer has an artistic background: she studied sculpture at the Rhode Island School of Design, while her childhood reminds her full of travels between the Pacific and South America, with a special passion for art and anthropology.

Earrings in recycled yellow gold, opal and diamonds

From art galleries and artists, Wing has moved on to jewelry – a way to celebrate sculpture on a smaller scale. In September 2013 she launched her first line of thin and airy jewelry with diamonds and opal, a stone that, she says, obsesse her. Her delicate 14-karat gold jewelry has also been liked by celebrities such as, Jennifer Lawrence, Emma Watson, Solange and Zoe Kravitz. Wing Yau is also part of the Jewelry Industry Summit, Ethical Metalsmiths, Fairmined Gold Licensees.

The diamond jewels worn by Rihanna




Rihanna’s return to the stage in a live performance after six years, on the occasion of Super Bowl LVII, was widely commented, starting from her surprise at her pregnancy. For the 13-minute show, the singer wore three pieces designed to measure by Jonathan Anderson, creative director of the Spanish brand Loewe. The red sneakers are the result of Maison Margiela’s collaboration with sports shoe brand Salomon.

Maxi down jacket with integrated gloves is instead by Alaïa, the brand founded by the late Tunisian couturier Azzedine Alaïa. However, the song sung at the end, Diamonds, was the most apt: the Barbadian singer showed up with a series of diamond-based jewels by the Parisian maison Messika. On stage in Arizona, in front of about 190 million spectators, Rihanna chose some of Messika’s high jewelry earrings: a single Illusionnistes mono earring broken into three parts, Equilibristes clips, another Magnetic Love mono earring, jewels from the Diamond Equalizer collection , diamond clip from the Illusionistes line. The right choice for a brilliant performance.

How to choose a phalanx ring




The rings to wear on the first phalanges of the fingers have convinced many celebrities. But are they comfortable? Are they not lost? Which to choose? Here is a quick guide to rings to wear on your fingertips, also called midi rings ♦ ︎

Midi rings are those that are worn on the first phalanges of the fingers. This type of ring is very trendy: Rihanna wore midi rings already in 2012. But the origin of the rings to be worn on the first phalanges of the fingers is older. Some paintings from 1400 to 1600 depict men and women wearing rings of this type, albeit with a different shape, according to the taste of the time. These rings were also used to emphasize the social class of belonging: wearing jewels on the fingertips, in fact, meant not being engaged in manual work, therefore being a noble or a rich person.

In short, the rings on the ends of the fingers have always been liked. But now?

They are annoying? The first thing a woman, perhaps engaged in the most diverse jobs, asks herself is whether these rings are easy to wear. In short, they will also be beautiful, but then they do not become annoying? It depends. Not all phalanx rings are the same. In order not to get boring during the day, they don’t have to be heavy. And neither bulky, with too many stones set or even pendants attached. If you like very elaborate rings of this type, wear them in the evening or in situations where you don’t have to use your hands for some specific task. Above all, they should be chosen of the right size, because it is much easier to lose a ring that is on your fingertips: in fashion it is fine, but without forgetting wisdom. Better to try them at a jeweler.

Phalanx jewelry care. Since these rings sit on the fingertips, they can be more easily in contact with liquids. Remember, for example, that they can easily slip off your fingers when you wash your hands with soap: it’s not nice to see your rings lose in the sink drain. Furthermore, if the rings are plated, for example, if they are made of silver with a thin gold film, they can be damaged in contact with corrosive liquids, such as dish detergents, sweat of the skin, but also food, such as juice. lemon or vinegar.

With Bjorg among design and Northern myths

////





Bjorg, a brand born from the fantasy of Bjørg Nordli-Mathisen took its first steps in India in 2004. A long journey from the far north of Norway, beyond the arctic circle, where the designer was born and lived. Perhaps this is also why Bjørg has developed particular attention to light and form. Her collections evoke the bright colors of an infinite summer, also embracing the stark contrast of the dark winters, often referring to and returning to the patterns of the sea and mountains of her childhood.

Nomad of spirit and habits, the designer is a globetrotter who releases two collections a year. The style is at the same time minimal, characteristic of Northern Europe, but also extreme, sometimes with maxi-sized jewels. Impossible to remain indifferent in front of the production of Bjorg, destined for a high end of fans. A cool audience: her pieces have been worn by artists such as Madonna, Rihanna, Lykke Li, Robyn, Kelly Rowland, Coco Sumner, Jessie J, Röyksopp and the actress Noomi Rapace. His production casually uses bronze together with diamonds and precious gems, and is inspired indifferently (declares Bjorg) to surrealism like Charles Darwin or ancient myths.

Also this year the award ceremony has collected bejeweled stars. The American actress who plays Princess Diana in the biopic Spencer, for example, chose Messika’s jewels for her red carpet look. Kristen Stewart wore the Messika by Kate Moss High Jewelry collection, with the Independent Icon bracelet and three-finger ring. Ella Purnell instead walked the runway with Undine High Jewelry earrings, mixing the famous Toi & Moi High Jewelry rings. And at the Fenty Beauty X Ulta Beauty event, Rihanna wore a personalized diamond belly chain, again by Messika High Hewelry. The belt was personally designed by the Maison for the singer and beauty tycoon who is expecting her first child, as a hymn to femininity, motherhood and her style, always daring her.

Beyoncé, Rihanna and Katy Perry with Messika




High jewelry and celebrity, a duo that recurs often. It was the same for Beyoncé, Rihanna and Katy Perry. All three protagonists of the entertainment world showed off jewels from the same Maison: Messika. In the first case, Beyoncé attended the Super Bowl LVI game in Inglewood, California, wearing high-end jewelery creations from the Parisian house, including the classic Flappers choker paired with the Shards Of Mirror necklace and Exotic Charm earrings.

Almost simultaneously, however, Rihanna performed at her Fenty Eau De Parfum event in Los Angeles. The celebrity-to-be chose three Messika diamond rings from the Wild Moon, Diamond Catcher and Exotic Charms High jewelry collections, to make her very bold look shine (with baby bump in sight). The American singer Katy Perry, on the other hand, participated in the NFL Honors wearing the Danseurs Aériens XXL earrings, combined with the high jewelery ring with Toi & Moi pear-cut diamonds.

Modern jewelry inspired by archaic shapes and talismans by Bee Goddess, from Turkey to Harrods ♦

There are jewels that have a history: the case of the most famous collection of Bee Goddess, a brand that has chosen to appeal to history, with the ‘s’ capital. Many jewels of the Maison founded in 2007 in Istanbul by Ece Sirin are became world famous jewelry. Her jewelry today are sold through channels prestigious as Harrods.

An archetypal woman, who has become a jewel in white gold and diamonds, then declined in many variations. The success has prompted Bee Goddess to use other forms inspired by antiquity: the original 12 talismans have multiplied across many collections, with 63 different symbolic objects. The jewels have prices really far apart, ranging from approximately 200 euro, up to 30 thousand for the limited edition. For the record, they are jewelry worn also by Donna Karan, Kate Moss, Kylie Minogue, Rihanna, Cara Delevingne, Lily Cole, Rihanna.

Martine Ali, from hip-hop style jewels to fashion shows from Brooklyn ♦ ︎
New York is trendy, New York is the center of the world, New York does not turn off the lights. Whether it’s true or not, for sure in the city of the Empire State Building are born and die hopes, careers and ideas. And so, if you want to live closely the hip-hop is there you have to go. The New York Times, for example, has identified a new trend designer who is in Brooklyn and is called Martine Ali. The designer has launched a unisex jewelery line that evokes hip-hop, with chains, dog tags and safety pins.

A kind of jewelery that can shook those who love traditional earrings and rings, and it is quite Martine Ali’s goal. His big silver chains, with a carabiner closure, are liked by rapper Kendrick Lamar, while Rihanna after put away her Chopard jewels, wore Martine Ali’s bracelets and necklaces in several videos. Her jewels were also noted by fashion designer Jane Chung and by Matthew Adams Dolan, Australian-American designer. In this case the collection approaches more to a traditional jewelery with gold and pearls and looks more feminine than usual. These are the proposals for the spring summer 2022 collection.

A necklace for the body

/




The long chains, the sautoir type necklaces, are perfect for those who choose vertiginous necklines or for light beach clothes ♦

Do you like the necklines coast to coast, able to make your head spin even to a hermit? In this case the a more appropriate jewel is chain bling-bling which runs along the exposed skin like a highway on the body. Ok, it is an accessory which is not exactly discreet. But, on the other hand, even a big neckline is striking. In addition, a long, thin chain that starts from the neck down untill to the height of your hips, can also be worn for occasions when the dress is optional, as the beach, the sea.

Sautoir in oro bianco e diamanti
Sautoir in oro bianco e diamanti di de Grisogono

How to choose. The sautoir type necklace must be proportionate to the length of the bust. It must not reach the navel, but stop much above, also because the neckline must certainly not reach the waist. Also, consider your body size: a thin necklace on an overweight or non-slender body can help to highlight a defect instead of enhancing your line. The size of the breast should not be underestimated: a deep neckline, accentuated by the necklace, is balanced with a reduced and compact size. The choice of Jenifer Aniston, for example, would seem already not apt.

When to wear a very long necklace? Well, of course it depends on the circumstances and the match with the dress. Very long necklaces were very fashionable in the 1920s and 1930s: they will look great on a low rise dress, for example. But not only. In addition to making the neckline stand out, a sautoir-like necklace can revive an anonymous turtleneck wool sweater, or a plain colored shirt. On a floral or patterned design dress, on the other hand, a thin moon necklace risks being confused with the design of the fabric. Also pay attention to the combination with other jewels: equally long and pendant earrings, for example, could be excessive if worn together with this type of necklace.

Any case, if you think a long chain  is a bit too much showy, you must know that this idea has been adopted by many stars of the show, as Suki Waterhouse, Vanessa Hudgens, Rihanna or Sophia Bush. Finally, this kind of sautoir of our days is often very thin and, therefore, if you wear it, you don’t will seem like a statue of Madonna of miracles or, worse, Christmas tree. Here are some examples.

5 tips to maxi chains

//




When can you wear a maxi chain or chunky chain? Many celebrities like it, but before you put it on your neck or wrist, read these five things to know

Maxi chains for ever. The trend is now official and shows no signs of abating: big and small stars show up with necklaces that look like they came out of a mechanic’s workshop, only they are gold. The good news is that these are (also) bijoux that cost little, very little: 20 euros is enough to dress in hip-hop style, even if you can choose more precious and expensive gold chains. The chunky chains, the XXL chains, however, are not suitable for everyone and everyone.

Mattioli, catena della collezione Aruba
Mattioli, catena della collezione Aruba

1) You have to pay attention to the combinations, because the maxi-chains are showy, strong, they attract attention. Also pay attention to the color, which must be coordinated with that of the other jewels: for example, if the chain is in pink gold (or plated in that shade), avoid wearing it together with yellow or white gold earrings.

2) The large chains around the neck stand out better if they are combined with minimal clothing. Conversely, a large chain could lose impact along with very elaborate and colorful clothes. A chain will be more noticeable when placed on a solid color dress.

3) Avoid an overload of jewelry: in addition to the chunky chain better not to wear bracelets, rings that are too big and, even less, other necklaces (even if someone has tried). In short, do not wear maxi chains together with other bulky jewels, such as cocktail rings, large chandelier or hoop earrings with a diameter over 2 centimeters.

4) Excellent combination of rapper chain and classic clothing. The actress and model Lily Collins, for example, decided to combine the maxi necklace with the timeless little black dress: the contrast is guaranteed.

5) Pay attention to your build. Large chain necklaces do not suit those with very pronounced or thick necks, because they emphasize the defect. If so, opt for a bracelet of the same type. Also, a maxi chain could be disproportionate on a woman with a lower than average stature. In short, if you are small, it is better to opt for a chain that is not too big.

Trend: jewels with your name




Necklaces with personalized names or pendants to spell words? It is one of the most followed trends

In 2021 one of the trends will be that of necklaces with personalized pendants, with the initials or full name of the wearer, or of children and partners. It has certainly been a few years since the trend of personalizing jewels with words or names has also been adopted by celebrities. For example, from Carrie Bradshaw, the character played by Jessica Parker in Sex and the city, to Kate Moss, immortalized some time ago on the cover of Vogue Uk by Mario Testino. Precisely for this reason there are many jewelry brands that offer necklaces with a name, or that offer the possibility of composing a date or a word by aligning the letters of the alphabet.

Artlinea, bracciale in argento e cubic zirconia personalizzabile

In short, the small chain that shows off the baptismal name seems to have become a must. But there are also pendants that offer the same result. If you want to add yourself to the list of fans of this kind of jewelry, you’ll be with Adele, Miranda Kerr, Miley Cirus, Anna Dello Russo, Lindsay Lohan, Lea Michel, Rihanna, Paris Hilton, Emma Roberts, Kim Kardashian, Jessica Biel … all, sooner or later, they wore a necklace with their full name. Instead, they opted for the initials Madonna, Beyonce, Charlize Theron, Taylor Swift, Lauren Conrad. Lavinia Andorno
