There’s jewelry… and then there’s celebrity jewelry.
No matter how nice you think your ring collection is, it’s no comparison to what celebrities wear on the red carpet multiple times a year.
But the good news? You don’t have to be a celebrity to wear lovely jewelry. And you don’t even need a budget of tens of thousands to wear designer-quality pieces.
First, we’ll look at some of the most fabulous pieces of celebrity jewelry.
Then, we’ll explain four different looks that are easy to pull off for under $99.
Let’s get started!
We’ve written about fine jewelry, which is made of precious metals and gemstones. And we’ve written about fashion jewelry, which is made of base metals or semi-precious stones.
But there’s a third category of jewelry we haven’t touched: high jewelry.
High jewelry is technically fine jewelry, in that artisans create it from precious metals and gemstones. But high jewelry pieces are one-of-a-kind, hand-crafted works of art.
These pieces range from hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars—and they make up the most expensive jewelry celebrities wear on the red carpet.
These headline-making pieces are so expensive, celebrities could never afford them. Instead, jewelry brands loan them the jewelry for free in hopes of publicity.
Having a celebrity like Beyoncé, Sofia Vergara, or Kendall Jenner wear your jewelry is as good as free advertising. That’s why you’ll see stars at the Golden Globes or Met Gala wearing outrageous jewelry.
Here’s the most valuable jewelry to grace Hollywood.
At the 2014 Oscars, actress Charlize Theron wore a stunning Harry Winston necklace with a 21-carat diamond. Combined with her diamond earrings, the set was valued at $15.8 million.
At the 2014 Academy Awards, actress Cate Blanchett wore a complete set of jewelry valued at $18 million. The collection included a set of opal earrings, a diamond bracelet, and a pear-shaped diamond ring.
One of the most valuable gems in the world is the Tiffany Yellow Diamond. Only three people have worn this diamond—diplomat Mary Whitehouse in 1957, Audrey Hepburn in 1961, and Lady Gaga at the 2019 Academy Awards ceremony.
One of the newest trends in celebrity fashion statements is layering different necklaces to create a bohemian, offset look.
It can be a challenging style to pull off because you need a set of necklaces that complement each other without clashing.
A simple way to nail this look every time? With a Rayna Layered Necklace for just $59. It’s designed with a combination of necklace layers that always look perfect together and available in sterling silver or gold vermeil.

The most recent style icon to set the fashion world buzzing about thumb rings? Meghan Markle.
There’s something about a thumb ring that draws attention and gets people talking. It’s a stunning look, but not one you see every day.
For celebrities, a solid gold thumb ring might be a few thousand dollars. But our minimalist thumb ring has the same look for just $59.
Even better, it’s adjustable so that no matter your ring size, it will be the perfect fit.

One of the most classic looks you’ll see is a simple set of diamond stud earrings. Celebrities from Audrey Hepburn to Anne Hathaway have been drawn to the simple elegance of this look.
But there’s only one problem—real diamond stud earrings are pricey. For a large carat size like you’ll see on fashion influencers, expect to spend thousands.
A simple alternative? A pair of Swarovski Stud Earrings for just $59. These earrings look like diamonds but are made of world-class sparkling Swarovski Crystal.

You’ve probably noticed this trend the last few times you scrolled through Instagram—stacked rings.
The idea is simple. You take a variety of rings and wear more than one on a single finger. It’s a hot trend that’s popular among influencers, celebrities, and everyone in between.
The easiest way to add it to your style repertoire? Buy a combination of rings that beautifully complement each other, like the Juliana 3 Ring Set for $59.
You can wear one at a time or combine them for a designer look.

None of us will probably ever wear millions of dollars of high jewelry on the red carpet.
But that doesn’t mean we have to dress the same way as everyone else. With a few simple and affordable jewelry choices, you can look like a celebrity without breaking the bank.
Most retail stores charge 8 to 10 times the actual cost while Blush and Bar sells directly to you. No stores, cashiers, or middlemen means more savings in your pocket.
Never worry about your jewelry turning green 18K Gold Vermeil assures your jewelry lasts. For a piece to be considered Vermeil, the Gold must be a minimum of 10k and 1.5 microns. We use 18k Gold layered on 925 Sterling Silver.
