This is named tigerskin jasper.
Pictured is a unisex eyeglass chain. I also also made ladies eyeglass chains and lanyards with this beautiful brown stone!
2015 Oscar Fashion
There were many gorgeous gowns this year (and many not so gorgeous but I will keep it positive).
Here are some of my favorites.
I love this one! Of course this showed up on worst dressed lists. Scarlett Johansson in Versace.
Reese Witherspoon in Tom Ford.
Behati Prinsloo in Armani Prive. I did not know who this gorgeous lady is but found out she is a Victoria's Secret model so of course she will look great in anything.
So classy is Cate Blanchett in John Galliano.Always stunning is Lupita Nyong'o. She is wearing Calvin Klein.
Here is Gweneth Paltrow in Ralph & Russo.
I watched most of the nominated movies this year and was excited to see Birdman receive best picture.
The Grand Budapest Hotel is right up my alley in terms of movies I love so it was great seeing its multiple wins!
Eddie Redmayne (best actor) was phenomenal in The Theory of Everything. I hope we see him in more amazing films in the future. I feel the same about his co-star Felicity Jones.
Julianne Moore (best actress) has always been a favorite is mine. She has been quite a risk taker over the years. Although Still Alice was terribly depressing, she was brilliant!
Thank you so stopping by. Happy movie watching if you are looking to catch up. ~Val
have not seen any of the movies nominated and did not watch the oscars. did peek at some of the highlights on msn. LOVED reese's dress - my favorite - although she's a big proponent of asking women about their acting and not their dress. :)
ReplyDeleteI see you like slim fitting dresses. I like the ones of Jennifer Lopez, Rosamund Pike and Lupitas too.
ReplyDeleteTigerskin jasper is such a beautiful stone, love seeing used for an eyeglass chain; practical art!
ReplyDeleteI love your necklace. So pretty and fabulous earthy color. I love neutrals. Love your Oscar picks! Ours is pretty much the same. I loved that turquoise necklace on Cate Blanchett. Oscar winning movies DO seem depressing and sad. HAHAHA

I haven't seen the Oscars but I always enjoy your picks :) I think the emerald green one is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteLove the earthy tones of the jasper!
I really liked Scarlett Johansson's gown too but I think that huge necklace/scarf thing detracted from it.
ReplyDeleteGreat overview of frocks here! I do love Tom Ford...always. Behati looked gorgeous...you know she's married to Adam Levine, right? Mmmmhmmm... I should really have seen more of the nominated films (The Imitation Game was the only movie that remotely appealed)...
ReplyDeleteGorgeous gowns, but it's something about the simplicity and classiness of the black gown that I love.
ReplyDeleteI love the new stone in your shop! Nice earthy colour! I love looking at all the gowns ;o) Scarlett Johansson did look stunning! Big Hugs ;o)
ReplyDeletesuch a lovely necklace Val! that stone is beautiful!! The Oscars always make me think of you :) and agree that Grand Budapest Hotel movie is one to watch and a favorite. Hope you're staying warm!
ReplyDeleteI love Cate Blanchett's simple black dress paired with her beautiful necklace!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about the dresses except Scarlett Johansson didn't need the big green necklace. It spoilt it a bit.
ReplyDeleteThat's is what I watch for in Oscar's
ReplyDeletethe gorgeous gowns.
I love Nicole Kidman's strapless gown.
It is not in here but it really looks good.
Reese's gown is lovely too.
