“Food, water, the diamonds, you know the essentials”, is how someone described what life was all about.
Women and their jewelry have always had a special relationship. Almost every woman of my acquaintance has a favorite jewel piece that she can never do without it can be a favorite ring that never gets off her finger, a favorite necklace that has been handed down from mother to daughter, a pair of earrings and more. They either never take off their favorites or store it in a special box to be periodically worn or admired. Personal jewelry makes us feel complete, nostalgic, and linked to a legacy.
Jewelry can be expensive or inexpensive, but the associations with it are priceless.
There are some iconic women who have lent their name to famous jewel pieces through the ages or some brand names that have benefited from being attached to them. It is still moot, who adorned whom.
We bring you here some famous women who have worn equally famed pieces well. Creating their own style, we bring to you some of these iconic women and their diamonds. Whether it was an adornment for a role or an everyday accessory pickup – we shine a spotlight on their choices.
